***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***

[Jonesy5960]

My daughter, if I had one, would be able to hit any pitch over the plate. Period. End of story.

Your fictional daughter is really a tremendous athlete. D1 material for sure.

 

[Tom Paris]

Yes, your ONE unique experience in the state of Iowa speaks for all. LOL

If it's not an issue, why are so many organizations nipping things in a bud by banning trans girls and females from girls and women's sports?

And are you ok with these 3 examples? Yes or no?

(1) In MN, a trans girl (pitching) led the softball team to a state title.
--> The player is Marissa Rothenberger, a junior pitcher for the Champlin Park High School softball team. She helped lead the Rebels to a 6–0 shutout win against Bloomington Jefferson to claim the Class AAAA Minnesota state high school girls' softball championship in June 2005

(2) In CA, a trans girl won numerous state track events.
--> The trans girl is AB Hernandez, a track and field athlete from Jurupa Valley High School in Southern California. She won multiple state titles in the girls' high jump and triple jump at the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) state championships.

(3) In PA, Lia Thomas has won numerous swimming events.
--> Former University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas won several individual races during her collegiate career. Most notably, she became the first known transgender athlete to win an NCAA Division I national championship when she won the 500-yard freestyle at the 2022 NCAA Championships.

So like a half dozen throughout the country over half a century. I’m not surprised you fell for it. I bet I couldn’t find a single girl’s basketball coach in Iowa who had a gameplan that included how to stop the 6’10 boy. You guys got conned.

C'mon Zero. The men transitioning to women THAT ARE COMPETING IN SPORTS are creating an unfair advantage. Fact.

Not arguing that. What I’m arguing is that you actually think as hard as life is for a transgender person you think they plotted it to compete in women’s sports. For all the money and glory in doing it.

 

[Hawksfor3]

So let me get this straight. You really think a person wants to change from a man to a woman so he can dominate a sport? You do understand how hard it is for a trans person to go through life in general? To be looked at as a freak by so many of you? But sure, they said I’m going to transform my entire body and life so I can go finish in 4th place in NCAA swimming. Fuvking incredible.

Easy solution. The leagues have to specifically define who can participate and who cannot. In the case of the WNBA, they do not currently allow transgender athletes participating. If what the players and coaches are advocating for is finally adopted, then radical changes will have to be made. For example, if the WNBA includes transgender athletes, then they should begin by changing the name of the league to something like W/TNBA, and strictly abide by the rules set forth by the league. How will that be received by the ticket holders and the public at large, remains to be seen. Not going to get into M to F athletes dominating women in sport because that has already been proven to happen. In today's society, you have folks who have a Naturalistic and Secular view of the world, leading to bizarre behavior, lifestyle, and departure from societal norms. That argument can be stalemated in philosophical debate forever. For adults who can't identify with their natural biological identity, there are a couple of options. Counseling is available in order to correct that thinking, and to promote acceptance of their true biological identity; or, upon rejection of counseling, to actually transitioning. The problem that I have is with a parent(s) who force transitioning on the child at an extremely young age. That is more than bizarre, it's criminal. To potentially destroy that child, who does not have the maturity and understanding of the long term consequences of this move is unforgivable. You hear stories of de-transitioning, and the horror of that experience. The trans people deserve respect, understanding, and acceptance in society. Whether or not they can be included in established sports leagues, is another matter. Could they form their own transgender leagues? Sure. Would they receive financial backing or enough fan interest to launch and sustain? Probably not, but this is where we are in society.

It should be noted here that this post was not addressed to me, but to another poster. I responded primarily to address the statement about how trans folks are looked at and treated by some in society. The other views are that of my own.

 

[Tom Paris]

When you don't agree with the far lefties, they will quickly call you a racist or a bigot. They hope that it will shut you up.

No. We call bigots bigots and racists racists. They’re easy to spot.

 

[Tom Paris]

See Tommy, you are in the minority, big time

No I’m not. Apparently you haven’t read my stance on this topic that I have posted for well over a decade, Kurtsy.

 

[Tom Paris]

She’s welcome to her position and any fans are welcome to theirs. Your post is a joke

Elaborate. What’s the funny part?

 

[Tom Paris]

Who was saying they don't "have the right to exist". That's a pretty big stretch from the topic

Are you kidding me??? These guys despise trans people. He thinks they’re crazy people. Yeah that’s bigotry. This isn’t a new topic on these boards.

 

[Tom Paris]

Martina agreed with these statements & retweeted this tweet to her followers.

But what does she know?

Well, Brian, it’s controversial because a group of men who know how to rile up a bunch of simpletons made a mountain out of a molehill. Here we are discussing something that affects next to nobody instead of discussing rising costs of healthcare that affect almost ALL OF US!!! We’re an idiot populace.

 

[Tom Paris]

Would you be upset at all if your daughter's softball team lost in the state championship game to a team with a star trans female pitcher who no one could hit?

Yes or no.

I’m more upset that a friend empties her savings account, with health insurance, after she gets cancer.

 

[Tom Paris]

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Only a simple idiot would think this.

 

[Tom Paris]

The Minny and Golden State head coaches have said this; there might be more.

Link to them saying a man should play in the W?

These trans haters are low IQ fools.

 

[Tom Paris]

C'mon Zero. The men transitioning to women THAT ARE COMPETING IN SPORTS are creating an unfair advantage. Fact.

All 9 of them.

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

when you don’t agree with the far right wingnuts they call you a libtard or a commie. They hope it will shut you up

This whole discussion is off the rails…… ******* tribalism

He's right, you know.

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

Wasn't "Days" cancelled a long time ago?

What ever happened to Hope and Bo, Roman and Marlena?

 

[Hawksfor3]

What ever happened to Hope and Bo, Roman and Marlena?

Good grief, I forgot about those characters lol. Roman was the guy who wouldn't die, wasn't he?

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

Paige only had 6 points in a blowout victory over the Sun yesterday.

It's because Paige is terrible! (Sarcasm)

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

Man I thought spamming the board with Christine Brennan tweets was annoying. At least they were somewhat related to CC.

But these constant posts about what a washed up tennis player thinks are twice as bad.

Actually, if you know anything about Martina Navratilova, they're not. She's not washed up, she's a legend and HOA and this is from an Evert and Graff fan.

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

quit spamming the board with your constant left wing nonsense.

To consider Navratilova to not lean left would entirely be inaccurate.

 

[KurtWarner]

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

I think you're on to something

 

[KurtWarner]

By the way, what's the topic of this thread again? ...I forgot

 

[AFM22]

By the way, what's the topic of this thread again? ...I forgot

Angel Reese appreciation thread.

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

Angel Reese appreciation thread.

Said one person, constantly! Yes, I edited it, then edited it again!

 

[AFM22]

Said one person, constantly! Yes, I edited it, then edited it again!

Everybody in their hearts knows it’s true

 

[whynot?]

Martina Navratilova agreed with this story from FOX News & retweeted this tweet to her followers.

But what does one of the greatest female tennis players of all time know?

There are many things going on that make Minnesota the laughing stock of the free world! Walz?

 

[whynot?]

See Mods!!!! This is what happens when you take away the free off topic board!!! People lost their forum to lose their shat over transgender athletes!!

JFC stop this ****, do your jobs, you are losing all of us who just want to talk women’s basketball! Not be taken over by either side of a bunch of idiots!

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Angel with 23/14. Looks like she’s the only one that showed up. Aces shooting 65%

That just means I get to bet more money next time............

 

[whynot?]

Not arguing that. What I’m arguing is that you actually think as hard as life is for a transgender person you think they plotted it to compete in women’s sports. For all the money and glory in doing it.

So respectfully I ask “why are they doing that “ ?

 

[oldhawk56]

Right. Lolol..that's the ONLY thing that goes on in the league that holds her back. Is that an attempt at the dumbest post on here?

Calm down Francis

 

[Jonesy5960]

JFC stop this ****, do your jobs, you are losing all of us who just want to talk women’s basketball! Not be taken over by either side of a bunch of idiots!

 

[Franisdaman]

I said out dueling.

Everyone was shooting 60+% and she was shooting 42%.

Cool, she had 4 assists, everyone is very impressed.

Now go post some more about trans people.

You are an idiot.

You keep proving it with every post.

But, you are consistent, I will give you that.

Now go post some more about your favorite player, Angel Reese.

 

[AFM22]

You are an idiot.

You keep proving it with every post.

But, you are consistent, I will give you that.

Now go post some more about your favorite player, Angel Reese.

You are a psycho.

you keep proving it with every post.

But, you are consistent, I will give you that

now go post 17 twitter links in a row that no one will engage with

 

[Franisdaman]

No. We call bigots bigots and racists racists. They’re easy to spot.

Well, you are an idiot and very easy to spot.

 

[Hawksfor3]

That just means I get to bet more money next time............

 

[Franisdaman]

Well, Brian, it’s controversial because a group of men who know how to rile up a bunch of simpletons made a mountain out of a molehill. Here we are discussing something that affects next to nobody instead of discussing rising costs of healthcare that affect almost ALL OF US!!! We’re an idiot populace.

Martina Navratilova is a Democrat, despises Republicans, and clearly is not male.

And you want to talk about a populace full of idiots? You might want to look in the mirror.

 

[Franisdaman]

Link to them saying a man should play in the W?

they said they are all about inclusion

 

[Franisdaman]

To consider Navratilova to not lean left would entirely be inaccurate.

Oh, I agree. Martina is a solid Democrat who happens to want to protect the integrity of girls and women's sports.

 

[Franisdaman]

And, yes, I am a psycho.

I keep proving it with every post.

But, I am consistent, so you all now know what to expect

Correct.
