Oh, come on.

A 6th grade girls team from Kentucky was set to go for the year-end championship tournament, but was told they were banned due to fears boys teams might ‘retaliate’ if they lost to the girls team.

    You mean the blog post on “comicsands.com”?

    And this erudite take by “Prez, a social media user on X (Formerly Twitter)”, who “didn’t buy it”?

    Yes, I did! Multiple times, unfortunately!

    It’s ridiculous to be so ready to fall for populist propaganda when you just happen to be on the self-congratulatory team, but the mode of thinking is the exact same as employed by MAGA freaks.

    Your lack of critical thinking makes you just as bad as them.

      I already told you that I clicked through to other posts as well as the statement from the league. What else is there to parse. If you don’t like the blog that is linked, feel free to post a different one. People like you are interesting to me, so quick to insult people online, arrogantly making judgements. I bet you’d be really nice to me in person. https://www.swohiosports.com/

        I happen to think that uncritically spreading clickbait bullshit is bad on its own.

        "Sunderman said he coached against a team of boys from Next Level in the first game, and he said the team’s gender was listed as male in it registration, but he said the rest of the games were played by girls.

        “We entered them into the league assuming they were a boys’ team as conveniently no roster was ever provided,” Sunderman said in his statement."

        Yeah, gee the outrage. Guy knowingly put the team in there knowing full well that he was breaking the rules, and switched out his team for a boy’s team in the first game because that’s not suspicious at all! What did you expect the league would do? There are liabilities, like voiding your insurance for 100 000 kids and forfeit all the results for the season.

        But never mind that, because this is pure misogyny and the title alone proves it, fuck the facts.

        And for (sigh…) “You are so mean and insecure and a man and boo my fucking who”? This is you wanting to divert the conversation to a topic where you feel more secure, like how victimized and “above it all” you are, so that you won’t have to question yourself or your beliefs or take any responsibility for your actions. And, well, congratulations.
