The goal of …Because I Played Sports is to bring a voice to women’s sports online. As former athletes, we promise to do what we can to bring as much as we can to achieve gender equality in editorial coverage of contemporary female athletics. We’re here to vocalize what many sports editors are ignorantly missing… females.

I just finished watching Bob Costas’ December 17 show of CostasNow on HBO, where he highlighted the best sports moments of 2008. It is a 90-minute show (dominated by men) includes Michael Phelps, Tiger Woods, Ryan Howard, Michael Strahan, Charles Barkley, John McEnroe and Rocco Mediate. It also features Dara Torres, Alicia Sacramone and Nastia Liukin. It’s obvious that one of Costas’s favorites is the below YouTube video of Alicia Sacramone who was dared to punch a guy in the face. She followed through with the dare, knocking him unconscious. Take a look:

Hahaha. This is pretty funny. Great job, Alicia. Maybe next year Costas will (instead) point out how incredible you are as an athlete.
