Parents
  • You are seriously obsessed with the backside, an odd place to find all things truthful. Maybe the butt is the new tea leaves, I don't know, I'll defer to your knowledge on the subject. Back to topic - my only point was that you were crying about the number of scholarship for men's versus women's swimming and I see many more women (girls) participating these days. As far as I know women's basketball teams are still 5-5 with 7 on the bench. I could be wrong, let me go inspect someone's rear and get back to you. I simply do not believe Title IX is the end of modern men's sports. I personally am elated my kids have the same sporting opportunities that I had growing up in the late 60s and 70s, except football. So, let's pretend it's your birthday and Title IX was rescinded. Do you really think universities would fund non-revenue sports? Or, do you think they'd dump even more money into football and basketball to generate even more revenue? Be careful what you ask for. So are you saying there is an equal number of males and females in the United States that want to play basketball? Have you not ever wondered why you pick up the sports page first and your wife picks up the front page? I believe it is a slippery slope legislating equality because it, in reality, is impossible. You seem to want fairness on your terms. I think I agree with your premise of fairness in that males and females should have equal accessibility to sports. Unfortunately, programs need cash and the "fair" thing to me, is for those people that make the money, to have some say in how it is spent. I don't want title IX rescinded (and I don't celebrate birthdays as they are way too depressing), but you are right but I believe for a different reason. The damage has been done with multiple lawsuits (or threatenings). Scum bag athletic directors and administrators would have no incentive to go back and pay for non-profitable programs.:whiteflag:
