OT Trans Ban in women sports
https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/14/politics/house-vote-ban-transgender-athletes-womens-sports/index.html
The GOP and 2 democrats advanced a bill that requires you to compete in the gendered sport you were born in. As a HS XC coach. Thank God, even if the price of eggs doesn't go down next week (insert laugh) this is a good move.
Sad that a bill is required for something that is common sense.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

There shouldn’t be a shit show. This is soooo common sense. Thank God my daughters won’t compete against biological males. They’ll be out of High school before this can get changed back.
This topic has been so crazy there are idiots saying if a man won't date a trans woman they are a bigot/homophobe. Mental illness has merged with Evil.
I'd love for J.K. Rowling to be invited as a speaker on this, she's basically gone to war with the wannabe wokies on "X".
KOC, JJM, Flores...make a good plan, or you'll be following Kwesi....

This is a very sensitive issue for some on the board and as such i should be on the other board.
It shouldn’t be. Sports are built upon the idea that they are fair. People are welcome to be whoever they want to be but people who are former men competing against the women gives them an unfair and unjust advantage.

Isn’t it crazy? You’re a bigot if you’re attracted to someone or not.

It should be because we know ahead of time that things will likely be said that are offensive to some board members that a have personal/familial connection to the trans community. Most would be respectful in their responses, but we know many cannot and as such I preferred to move it over here instead of it having to be in the face of those that we call brother or sister and causing them unnecessary hurt.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

I don’t know the back story, but there’s common sense, and then’s there’s not. There’s not has been in charge the last four years, and I’m glad it’s coming to an end.

Packer fans lol. Mine is crazy. She grew up near La Crosse but on the MN side (tv was packers over Vikings) so she’s kind of traitor.
On the video. That’s awesome. I honestly couldn’t give a flip who you want to be. But you don’t get unfair advantage in sports and quite frankly….this has been bugging me. My daughters asked for “defense items” for running outside in the public. Whistles, pepper spray etc.
We live in a relatively small town and they are worried about someone kidnapping them.
If women are that scared of men then we need to draw a line of only women born as women in their locker room as well. Or make every bathroom private.
