The death of women’s sports

[Bunion 2020]

Should be more concerned about the death of football.

When they run a playoff game on PPV NFL channel only it seems like Suicide.

too many asinine threads

“Hey, I should start an asinine thread about it!”

Football died when players started being douche bags en mass.

Conservatives are so butthurt about everything.

Who fucking cares.

I’m of the perspective that “participation in competitive sports creates lower level moral reasoning in both sport and life”, and that anything that illuminates its’ fundamental absurdity, as the transgender issue certainly does, is a positive.

Aww. Scotty’s triggered! When were professional athletes not douche bags again?

Bring back the good old days when they were allowed to beat their wives, girlfriends and others with impunity but at least they didn’t have the audacity to kneel in protest of police violence! That’s where dumb America draws the line!

That could make for some interesting pay-for-view.

If kaitlyn Jenner came back to crush the women’s decathlon that would be good ratings

Is it also not snowing where you live?

Read the novel “Lathe of Heaven”
Ursula LeGuin

Or Vonnegut short story Harrison Bergeron

Since no one reads anymore, here’s the cliff notes

Brother just read this in middle school English last week. Couldn’t believe I’d never read it. Vonnegut is the man

some clips on YouTube of the film version “2081” for illiterate mags (all of you):

When women's leagues are paying as much or more than men's pro leagues this might be something worth STARTING to discuss.. Until then, as long as the lowest level pro NBA baller earns several times what the best WNBA player gets we're not going to see all these men trying to exploit that loophole.

I have seen seveal stories on TV where some guy in High school wants to identify as a girl. And then they let him join the Girls Track team. Needless to say he blows all the girls away at every event.

Not fair there has to be a line somewhere

Is this a good place to talk about Oscar Pistorius? The IAAF claimed his prosthetics gave him an unfair advantage and it took a court case for him to win the right to compete against non-disabled athletes. What would be the fair way to treat athletes like him?

No one ever told you that life isn't fair. Too bad. So sad. Older than your dad.

Jail seems to have stopped Pistorius.

Nobody's going to claim they identify as a female just to win races. If they're fast enough to obliterate the women, they're likely fast enough to earn a spot on the men's team. Pretty sure the motivation and need for them to follow through on their gender identity FAR OUTWEIGHS their desire to win a couple races in high school.

Otherwise, why isn't everyone doing it? Because nobody's going to put themselves out there owning gay just to win a race.

Yup.
