Running track in high school and college there are VERY few women that have reached the times that I ran. Will be a very long time before equality happens. They are not as fast, not as quick, not as strong.utucats wrote: ↑Thu Feb 13, 2020 3:11 pmPhenomenal idea. For those that believe that we will have “similar outcomes”, I’m sure they’ll enjoy being able to watch Troy Andersen tackle females on Saturdays. I wonder if games will be longer due to injury timeouts . Probably not. I’m sure after a few years the girls will catch up and everything will be equal.coloradocat wrote: ↑Thu Feb 13, 2020 2:05 pmI think we should go full equality and make all sports co-ed.
It will be awesome someday when we reach true equality and there is no difference between men and women!
The American Ninja competition as one example. They might break into the top 30 although they allow them to qualify differently.
This week I think Rory McElroy has a 321 yard average drive. Guessing the women are around 280. I think this stat is dependent upon course.

Re: Cost Of Attendance proposal
Physiological differences doesn’t seem to stop female gymnasts from performing equivalent floor routine.
Women may well never catch up with men physically, although I think more time is required before a reasonable assessment can be made. Women athletes are still making strides in virtually all sports.
If women never do catch up physically still doesn’t mean that T9 is a bad idea.

Re: Cost Of Attendance proposal
Being from that era, there were a couple world leaders that were women in the 60s and 70s that I remember. Golda Meier the Prime Minister of Israel was in power in late 60s. Margaret Thatcher rose to power in the Conservative party in Britain in early to mid-70s....ultimately Prime Minister in later part of decade. Both strong women who deserved the roles they were elected to not just ”because it was right thing to do”. Jeanette Rankin was elected as first woman in House of Representative as a Republican in 1916. And I did look up there were a couple CEO women in 70s...Katherine Graham at Washington Post and Marion Sandler at Golden West Financial. Certainly a small number but I am sure each got there because they deserved to be there.77matcat wrote: ↑Sun Feb 16, 2020 12:49 amAFCat

I’m thinking it was.
At our small school there would have easily been 10 young ladies who would have “flocked” to the game if we would have had a Women’s BB team then. There were some competitive young women. We a had a strong womens track team (top 3 in state 2 consecutive years when I graduated) and had good women’s softball teams. My dad coached little league baseball and our community was so small there were years we had several young girls playing baseball... this was 20 years before the young lady played in the Little League World Series that created all the hub but. And I did watch some of the early BB games which at times was painful....the Womens BB game today is a much different story (as you point out all those 1st grade girls are now learning skills at a young age and playing high school or college ball with good skills) with play at a high level.
For me Title IX is about giving resources to allow competition for young men and women to participate in a sport they love. Something that was ignored in the past. I am not interested and have no time for the argument that says we have to expect women BB teams to compete against men at any level....or run the 100meter dash at the same speed....or do the rings routine in gymnastics....or power lift the same weights....or rise to the level of men’s wrestling in the state of Montana....etc etc.etc. what I like is having a good women’s basketball team that can kick the behind of a Grizzly women’s BB team or a good women’s volleyball team so I can watch someone spike it against the Griz or Idaho or whoever. And I still think it was wrong to shut down men’s baseball and wrestling to accommodate the new rules. And I wished we had a women’s soccer team and softball team....both of which I coached when my daughters were little...and I still enjoy watching.
Oh well....

Re: Cost Of Attendance proposal
And somehow, you still miss the point.
It's not about men's sports vs women's sports. I'll fully admit that I would rather watch our women's basketball team than our men's. They play better. It's not about the aesthetical appeal. It's the money.
Sports, especially at the FCS level, are a drain on resources. Now some sports are able to do a lot better than others (football). Even then, look at EWU, it's hard.
The point is that it's an undeniable fact that Title IX makes it much more difficult for universities to be financially solvent, and for what? Make tennis and golf club sports, and for the students, hardly anything changes. I bet more people go to the lacrosse games (club sport) than the tennis or golf matches. I just think things could be done a whole lot better.

No worries!

Re: Cost Of Attendance proposal
I like women's soccer better because they play harder than the men's soccer teams and it makes it fun to watch. They leave the field bloody and dirty, whereas the men have grass stains from flopping on the ground and crying like babies. Women soccer players are 10x tougher than the men.PapaG wrote: ↑Mon Feb 17, 2020 6:10 pmI assume you mean aesthetically, because the Dallas MLS U-15 boys’ team beat the USWNT 5-2 in an exhibition a few years ago.luckyirishguy25 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 16, 2020 2:52 pmWell truth be told I'd rather watch women's soccer any day of the week over men's soccer or golf...utucats wrote: ↑Sun Feb 16, 2020 2:16 pmDing ding ding.
