Buttkicker's makers want your behind to bounce in synch with a movie's score. Like Smell-o-Vision, this is a solution lacking a problem.

Or her superior court vision as she distributed the ball down low to Emma Moretzsohn and Liz Tindal, both of whom reached career highs in points Saturday with 12 and 11, respectively...
