Title IX pays off

[rightwinger]

When Title IX, giving women parity in sports funding was passed....There was outrage

Why fund women’s sports?...

That was not the question. The question was "why cut men's sports for the sake of women''s sports that can't field a full team because not enough female students are interested?"

Women's sports are great. Cutting men's sports for a political quota is not.

It was about equality of opportunity, funding, equipment and access to practice facilities

Title IX was mocked.......Today it is paying off

Yes, it really paid off for all those male wrestlers and male volleyball players who's teams got cut to meet the quotas.

Be happy for something, but don't ignore the consequences.

It was the schools decision
They could have just increased funding of women’s programs

As it was, women’s sports has received more funding, better training, better facilities

It is paying dividends

I have to throw a flag on that one. You've said multiple times that the schools "could have just increased funding of women's programs". Think it through a little more carefully and I think you'll grasp that to which I am objecting.

They could have increased funding

Instead, they just evenly distributed scholarships

Why fund women’s sports?

Today, our women’s Soccer Team won the World Cup for the fourth time. Our men cant even qualify

US women dominate in Basketball, Gymnastics, Skiing, Ice Skating, Soccer,Track and Field

All because of Title IX

However, very few give a shit about soccer.

Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.

I know that soccer is popular among Foreigners- but Americans (as a group) are bored with the exhibition.

How do you know?

Um no

You seem to forget that there were women in sports before the government did anything

American women were winning gold medals decades before the government ever got involved

And there was a huge discrepancy in the number of scholarships, training facilities, equipment and coaching available to women

Title IX fixed that

I doubt that.

What you don't realize is that people who aspire to be great at anything do it whether or not the government gets involved.
giving out scholarships for athletics is beyond stupid

Complete nonsense

Nobody becomes a great athlete playing basketball in their driveway
Becoming a world class competitor takes training, facilities and coaching
Those things cost money

The government doesn't need to get involved however.

When pro wrestling scouts were in Uganda and saw what James Kamala Harris could do, they brought him back and gave him a basic understanding of the rules. But it was his talent for brutality that led him to the top. No federal funds were needed.

Ummmm...
Pro Wrestling is fake

Just so ya know

Not fake. Scripted. Big difference.
If it was fake, anyone could do it.

If you compare the attendance of the Youngstown pro soccer team with other pro sports, it just doesn't compare.

Men's Football and Men's Basketball bring in the money in colleges. All other sports are parasites. My neighborhood softball league when I was a lot younger would beat any women's team today. It would be home run derby.

LOL
Badass

But they put woman's softball championships on cable TV for a few weeks on multiple ESPN channels every spring. So by that logic why not men's competitive neighborhood softball leagues. And of course the inner city Basketball guys get no play either. They would massacre the WNBA in head to head matches. Why no cable TV on ESPN for them? Its funny. You go from equality to insulting the man versus women thing when it conveniences you. I only ask for cable TV reform where we can pick our own basic channels. And all of a sudden it is not touchable even for a monopoly. Well there has to be a reason we purchase most of our great tech products from Asia. They be badazzes! And they be going to run things in a few decades...

Even World Class women athletes don't stand a chance against ordinary men.

The 9th Wonder of the World, Chyna, vs. Long Island auto body man Joey Buttafuoco tells the tale.

Buttafuoco won.

Again, "they could have increased funding". From where would this funding come?

Not for male athletes sacrificed in the process.

Yea.....Equality is like that

The radical leftist version of equality is like that. Leftists would take a hacksaw to all tall men and saw off their legs at the knees so shorter people won't feel bad. That kind of 'thinking' makes sense to leftists. Glampers, all of them.

That is a stupid meme that was scoffed off long ago.
The illustration shows no loss to to the first two in order to give to the 3rd.
Nor does it illustrate the differences in contribution.

Like all athletic funding, it would have come from academics

It is the general idea minus the unpleasantness. Which is the basis of 90% of social policies.
What it doesn't show is the left figure bought his own box from money he earned in his business. A business that he took many risks to secure, he may very well have been figure #3 for some time while getting that business going.
It doesn't show figure two also bought his own box, he works for figure #1. He works everyday, his job is not easy but he goes in every day and gets the job done.
It doesn't show that figure #3 doesn't have any money for a box. He didn't graduate high school, but still went to community college on taxpayer dollars but like most kids like him...he didn't get a degree. He didn't like to study and spent most of that time hanging out with friends. After his free college party days were over he spends most of his days sulking around and pissed off at the world because people like #1 and #2 have what he wants.

I never got Andy Kaufman. Many comedians thought he was genius. Not as much the public though. He played Latka on Taxi as to me his highlight and then they introduce Christopher Lloyd as Reverend Jim Ignatowski.."Iggy" who blows him out of the water as a character. Lloyd was more of an actor then comedienne also.

Kaufman was hit or miss

Pissing people off is not comedy
