Love it!! Love the whole of the paralympics! They are inspiational!!
Also love ABC's coverage, much better than the coverage of the "real" Olympics.

PS... maybe this might be better suited to the I Digress forum?

Something that has long puzzled me about wheelchair basketball: why are the wheels on such an acute angle?
Does this make the chairs more stable, perhaps? Just idle curiosity.

Cheers, Tony
