I’m guessing he will do quite well. Should be interesting to see just how much support he gets from the side that advocates men in women’s sports.

.....In before the lock!

Seriously, how'd we get here? Smh

Oh..it will never happen. It will be fun watching the WNBA twist themselves up trying to stop him. I guess they could all just collude and not draft "her".

I also see Clay Travis offering to bankroll an all Trans WNBA team to play in Nashville...the Nashville Balls. Men/Boys in Womens and Girls sports and locker rooms is indefensible to me so lets see if matching stupidity with stupidity gets anywhere.

Maybe lets get this bait post off the football board...

Bait post? I think it's easy to see the hypocrisy / lunacy in the WNBAs position. You can be pro-Trans and still take a common sense approach to fairness in womens sports. I don't know how to move it on this board. I honestly don't think it's going to get out of hand or I wouldn't have posted it. I just found it amusing. It would be fun watching Enes in the paint against Angel Reese. Feel free to move it if you have privileges. I don't want to stir up anything besides being amused by Kanter taking it too a different level of ridiculousness.

I dont have mod rights and dont want em, no sir!

You're a bright man and we've had discussions before on stuff, I respect your opinions. On this particular topic re: trans community we're more aligned than not.

Heck, this is surely a hot potato topic that will degrade into trash and politics fast. We're a post or 2 away from Trump, Miller or Joe B.

I'm moving on...

He has to be mocking the WNBA, Has to be lol

How is this any more bait than the terrible smoke and air quality from the wildfire posts? That shouldn't be on this board if a sports related matter can't be, correct?

It really can't happen because it would implode the league, but it does put them in a predictable but precarious position of potential discrimination which I'm sure is Kanter's aim.
