Head Scratcher

For those who are familiar with professional basketball it is safe to assume that you all are aware of a certain Los Angeles Clipper who is a frequent guest on Sports Center’s top 10; and he would go by the name of Blake Griffin. When we watch the Clippers we are graced with Blake Griffin’s athleticism. He is a: freak, monster, and beast. All these terms are viewed and meant as compliments, but what would happen if we were to call Balyor’s Brittney Griner a beast, or freak? How would that be seen or interpreted? Are there different terms that we are supposed to use because she is a female? And if so, what are they? Ms Griner you are the most hyped female basketball player since Lisa Leslie, Candace parker didn’t get this much recognition for her dunk during her Tennessee days. You are now part of an elite group of only 7 women who have dunked in an NCAA game. If you decide to peruse a pro career and dunk in the WNBA you will be only the 3^rd behind Lisa Leslie and Candace Parker… So what term of endearment to use when describing you?  You will now be called Mega Beast. Here is to you Griner, I mean Mega Beast.
