You are right. I see the light. The Geek-Dickson bill is going before the senate. One provision will be that all colleges must provide equal football opportunities for women.
It is not the fault of Title IX that ADs choose to allocate 65 of their men's athletic scholarships to football. As a matter of fact, if the NBA wouldn't have decided to change their rules, Universities like Ohio State, Texas and Kansas State might have a couple more scholarship dollars to give to some male swimmers. I am of course referring to the 'one and done' basketball superstars who could have easily jumped from high school to the NBA. That is a topic for some other hijacked thread though. Geek and Fort are correct in saying that it is sexist for you to say that women are, in general, less interested in sports. A majority of the women I am friends with, including my wife, were or are jocks and are still interested in all sorts of sports. I'm not saying you're a horrible person, but the statement is definitely sexist. Plus, I graduated from a University that had a female football player on scholarship! Not that that's really relevant, but I thought I'd throw it out there anyway.:cool:
