The sissies of basketball

The guys who draw the most fouls have the most bruises at the end of the game. They are down in the thick of things, drawing body contact, taking one for the team. Three point shooters are the white collar workers of basketball, out on the perimeter, protected by that nonsensical three-shot rule, the untouchables of the game. "Naughty, naughty - you're not allowed to touch me, because I'm special. Go sit on the bench while your coach chews you out for a three-shot foul."
