She really does have a long history of homophobia and transphobia. Well, whatever. Why do you think she’s leaving politics? I don’t know much about her.

So she wants her parting gift to be a symbolic piece of hate legislation.

Hopefully she’ll stay retired.

Women are welcome to tryout for the NBA.

Basketball is just one example but a good high school varsity team could smoke a WNBA all-star team all day.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

idk we could figure it out, and probably name it something different
I’m sure UT has some coed intramural ball, soccer and hoops, that you couldn’t compete in.

I mean probably, I remember thinking I could keep up playing coed intramural soccer in college and I was hella wrong.


Anyway, I think the NBA would be more interesting if a basket was worth 4 points if the scorer was under 5 10 or something. Being 6 10 is such an anomaly that if you’re that tall you really don’t have to be that athletic to be in the NBA. I looked it up and if you’re 6 4 and you’ve played basketball your whole life your chances of making the NBA are like 1 in a 1000. If you’re 6 10 it jumps to like 30%.

Venezuelan official: Authorities thwart oil refinery attack

I wonder if this was related to the recent 'Operation Gideon' fiasco...

but then we might have to get off this trip that people should be playing Sportsball as their whole life plan
I agree except the last part

I think it's cool that we fund major league sports to exhibit the heights of human athleticism. It's one of the few relics of a long forgotten to past where humans still valued physical prowess.

I do agree though sex divisions in sports leagues make about as much sense as racial segregation in sports. Like with basketball... on average men out compete women, but also on average black men out compete white men who out compete Asian men etc. Yeah a female center in the NBA is probably not gonna happen anytime soon. But a female point guard very well could. And in the meantime you're depriving the potential female point guards from competing in the most lucrative and most comoetitive league, for the sake of fairness. It's not exactly fair to her. She's being robbed by being confined to the wnba.
