Oh, wait, I get it.
If you were to ever have any female progeny who flashed any signs that they were athletically inclined ... you would forbid them from competing against their own kind and instead force them into a life of subservience and sammich making - correct?
We must assume this to be your general point of view when it comes to the weaker sex - correct?

Yet my masculinity is never in question.
I never denigrate hard working biological females of any shape, color or aptitude who have chosen to compete on any of my beloved courts of competition or fields of athletic endeavor. Matter of fact I encourage it. Sports builds character, strengthens the body and the mind.
Furthermore, I'm a retired sky soldier, a paratrooper, who served with some outstanding females who were some of the best jumpers I've ever known. They were not great combat troops or infantrymen but some could fly with the best of them.
Additionally I have three grown daughters ... two attorneys and a Phd in Clinical Psychology. Two were college athletes. One rode Equestrian competitively and the other played soccer.
Also, I now have four granddaughters. The oldest of which is a helluva softball player and who rode around with me in South Florida this past week catching pythons.
So you see, as with your past bullshite posts ... I've projected nothing, I've simply made honest observations with regard to the incessantly obnoxious little dick punk assed anti-women posts all of us have had to endure for months in the cesspool.
I've been to the practices, I've seen the incredible amount of hard work these women put-in in order to compete at this level. I've seen them rehabbing from the torn ACLs and MCLs and blown tendons. I've noted the fact that these females also typically carry much higher GPAs, while competing, than do their male counterparts.
frick all the rest of the noise. The only projecting being-done are by you little dicks that feel the need to constantly bash the women's game and their hard work, effort, desire and drive.
Hey lemme ask you Murph, when you're sitting in your Momma's basement railing on the women on this forum .... are you wearing false eyelashes and heavy eyeliner and all that stuff?
Someone should really do a study on you obsessed little dick women hating fricks.

I am saying WBB is a shite product. Hell, equestrian is not a good product to consume on TV. I love baseball, and baseball as a lot of room to improve as a product on TV.
Look at the 2022 WCWS ratings compared to the 2022 WNBA Finals ratings. Both are women's sports championships at the highest level of competition for that sport.
I don't know why you feel the need to white knight for WBB. Maybe if they lowered the rims to 9 feet, brought the 3 point line back to where it used to be (if not closer), and had a few other rule changes it would be something worth watching.

I will agree it’s a tough watch sometimes but IF you do watch, try to keep in mind that it’s a different sport than the men’s game.
While the men have evolved into spreading things out and attacking gaps and kicking it to 3 point shooters, the women aren’t athletic enough to take advantage of the space the way men can. In turn, the women play a very old school post dependent style of basketball. In the women’s game, post play is still king. It’s like hopping in a Time Machine and watching the game the way it was played in the 90s and prior…
The missed layups are still hard to stomach though.

This is actually a really good point. Women don’t play baseball because it would look awful compared to the men (I love you Dylan Crews) but they do play a version of the sport on a smaller field with a bigger ball and differences such as how the ball is pitched. These smaller dimensions make the game faster and more appealing to watch.
If women’s basketball were to make their court smaller and play on 8 foot rims, their product would vastly improve from an entertainment viewpoint.

It is amazing how many simple put backs go up one side of the rim and come down on the other side of the rim.
Also, how many routine lay ups go off the back board at 1000 miles an hour because the player panics, hits the front of the rim and then out to the key.

I was never seriously injured on Salerno, Sicily or Nijmegen. Concussions were part of the job.

Here's where we differentiate when it comes-to "TV products" and the constant negative feedback by some on this forum.
First of all, WCBB is not the WNBA. Women's college basketball is a completely different product. At the UofSC our nation's leading home attendance numbers exceed any WNBA attendance numbers.
Secondly, if you see inherent issues with the game of baseball ... why not rail against that game as well? There's a certain hypocrisy to that is there not?

See above. Let's not conflate professional sports, of any kind, with the college game, nor the college game with the HS game.

I'm not "white knighting" for anyone or anything. I'm finally pushing back against the incessant and unnecessary virtue signaling against the college women's game. From my perspective it the same as virtue signaling against any of hundreds of different perspectives in today's cancel culture social media environment. EVERYTHING is subject to attacks by those who are incapable of allowing others to say or do or enjoy whatever ... and I'm more of a live and let live kind of guy.
I have two rules that I live by. Never hate-on or discriminate against any program, or biologically correct gender/student athlete, or sport in which they endeavor to achieve ... and ALWAYS ALWAYS hate-on the Dutch, the sheep humping sister bangers and the gay tejas shorthooerns fans and their programs.
With regard to lowering rims and shortening 3-pt arches, my Dad had a saying. "Never go down to their level, ALWAYS reach down and help pull them up to yours."

I remember it well, we were literally just talking about this the other day on this forum and I defended Imus for the overreaction and cancel culture he endured before he died ... but I didn't defend his producer's or his ill-advised use of the term. It wasn't funny, it was costly and, unfortunately, it allowed the cancel culture on the left another narrative to use against elderly white men. We have to be better than that.

This part of your post clearly demonstrates that you simply can’t/won’t/don’t get what people who dislike women’s college basketball are saying.
Women are not men. They aren’t as strong or at any way close to the athletic ability of men, and never will be.
This is precisely why they play with a smaller ball then men. Lowering the goal and reducing the 3 point line would greatly improve the “product”.
No one is saying women shouldn’t play sports. They are merely saying that in the current form, women’s college basketball is unwatchable. With a few changes it would improve the product and make it a bit more watchable.
