* I have often wondered about the marketing research that says female sideline reporters at NFL games are a good idea. Michelle Tafoya could eat crackers in my bed but we wouldn\u2019t be talking about football because she knows less than I do which is not much.<\/p>\n

* Women broadcasting sports? Retarded. I\u2019ll buy into women broadcasting sports when there\u2019s an ugly, sweaty female representative from some woman\u2019s sports category on EPSN\/NFL broadcasts. Until then, the know-nothing but cute little cookies that shake their cakes for the camera while they tele-prompt their way through a broadcast only represent high-level retardation. The women pretend to know something and the men pretend to listen.<\/p>\n

* The top Premier soccer club in my state fields boys\u2019 and girls\u2019 teams at a variety of age levels. A few years ago, the boys\u2019 U-15 team and girls\u2019 U-18 team both won state championships. Someone in the organization thought it would be a good idea for the two teams to play a \u201cfriendly\u201d. Much to the shock of the SWPL parents in the stands, the boys won by the selfsame 7-0 score, with the boys\u2019 coach forbidding them from shooting during the final 20 minutes, and directing them to simply play \u201ckeep-away\u201d with the ball.<\/p>\n

Plot twist: Every one of the girls\u2019 starters went on to play college soccer on a full scholarship the next fall. The boys all went on to their freshman year of high school.<\/p>\n

* The disparity is even bigger in ice hockey. Any decent boys high school team will demolish female world champions. But if you want to elicit maximum rage from feminists, ask why there is a need for women chess tournaments.<\/p>\n

* Women should not be in military combat at all. Even if they somehow physically qualify. It impacts cohesion of the unit.<\/p>\n

I’m watching the Olympic trials for the women’s steeplechase. This is what women\u2019s sports should be \u2013 cute girls in skimpy outfits running around and staying in shape. But when the mentally ill men start fighting for Title IX scholarships, women\u2019s sports advocates will have to decide between women and trannies. I look forward to their decision.<\/p>\n

* Trannies, like homos, tend not to dwell in the palace of truth.<\/p>\n

* I\u2019m far more concerned about the failure to get a minimum cup size imposed in women\u2019s beach volley ball.<\/p>\n

* I want to add to the pile of \u201cseparate but equal\u201d nonsense the contention I heard last night that WNBA women players should be paid the same as NBA male players. Bill O\u2019Reilly devoted his full hour to showing hilarious interviews conducted by Jesse Watters of young people (men and women) on various beaches around the country. Apart from the standard questions of who the U.S. fought in various wars (France, for some reason, was a favorite response), one young woman contended that she thought WNBA players should be paid the same as NBA players. Leaving aside the fact that WNBA games do not draw anywhere near the crowds or TV viewing audience as NBA games, there is the issue of whether it would be equal pay for equal work. We have the great example of professional tennis where women were able to extract the guarantee of same prize money as the men despite the fact that women only play best 2 out of 3 matches while men are forced to play best 3 out of 5 matches. That leaves aside the fact that Serena and Venus Williams were not able to come close to beating the 203rd ranked men\u2019s player in 1998, as another poster noted the other day. Time to abolish women\u2019s sports as a separate category altogether now that sexual identity has entered the picture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
