Harvard shuts down soccer team for secretly rating girls(OMG! Locker room talk!)

Harvard University shut down its men's soccer team because men on the team secretly rated the attractiveness of girls on the girl's soccer team.

Harvard announced on Thursday that it was canceling the rest of the season for its men’s soccer team after university officials uncovered what they described as a widespread practice of the team’s players rating the school’s female players in sexually explicit terms.

Lawyers for the university began investigating the men’s team after the college newspaper, The Harvard Crimson, reported last week that a player created a nine-page document in 2012 with numeric ratings, photos and lengthy evaluations of the freshman recruits of the Harvard women’s team based on their physical appearance.

...I didn’t think soccer players where into girls so much, if you know what I mean!...

It depends on how many times you've been kicked, and where.

What they’ve probably learned is that hypocrisy makes the world go round, and might makes right. So they will become masters at gaming the system, which has much to do with how they got into Harvard in the first place.

We need to go back and cleanse the all media that has promoted these obscene ratings. Hollywood should be the first to be scrutinized.

We can start with the movie “10”.

Actually all the actors who have made millions through these films, should repent, give up their wealth, and promote true equality. We can censor all of Hollywood for promoting beautiful women in movies.

There is but one rating system for beauty that can not be challenged. It is the ancient and classic millihelen measure of beauty. The system was devised by the Greeks far back in antiquity and has survived as the standard.

Helen was said to be the most beautiful woman in not only Greece, but all the world. Helen was the daughter of Zeus and the wife of the Spartan king Menelaus. An army of Paris, the Prince of Troy, captured Helen and carried her off. Thus it was that the most beautiful woman in the world became the reason for one of the world’s epic conflicts.

The Greeks were outraged at the sheer affront of such a dastardly deed and by the fact that such a national treasure and beauty should be spirited away. The Greeks took swift and major action.
The Greeks launched a thousand ships to go to Troy, destroy the city and especially Paris, and to recover the beautiful genetic treasure.

Thus it is that the millihelen rating system was established by the Greeks in far back antiquity. The most beautiful among all women rates 1,000 millihelen. The average women rate 500 millihelens. To save the least attractive among women, one ship would be launched, she would rate only 1 millihelen

Had the Harvard team used the millihelen system they could call forth their classics and be above reproach

I thought I read they’re doing a remake of “10” but calling it “ZERO” and the two star will be lena dunham and amy schmucker. Box office=the name of the movie. ;-)

P.S. I know, that’s bullying or something.

They're probably too busy with their classes in Diversity Theory to take any Classics for familiarity with the concept of "the face that launched a thousand ships."

The whole story reminds me of sitting in the commons area of the dorm outside the dining hall so we could conduct live ratings as the women passed by. Had this rule been in effect at my university back in those Dark Ages, I never would have completed college and I'd still be on a perma-ban.

On that photo up the page, I rate the two tall ones in the middle as LUGs (lesbian until graduation) and the others would not be kicked out of my bed for eating crackers.

“Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl.”

The priest asks, “Is that you, little Joey Pagano?”

“’Yes, Father, it is.”

“And who was the girl you were with?”

“I can’t tell you, Father. I don’t want to ruin her reputation.”

“Well, Joey, I’m sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?”

“I cannot say.”

“Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?”

“I’ll never tell.”

“Was it Nina Capelli?”

“I’m sorry, but I cannot name her.”

“Was it Cathy Piriano?”

“My lips are sealed.”

“Was it Rosa DiAngelo, then?”

“Please, Father, I cannot tell you.”

The priest sighs in frustration. “You’re very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you’ve sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behave yourself.”

Joey walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and whispers, “What’d you get?”

“Four months vacation and five good leads!”

Isn’t this how Facebook, a $350 Billion dollar company and darling of the left got started at Harvard?

I assume that the girls on the women’s soccer team never talked about whether the guys on the men’s soccer team are cute. I also assume that girls and guys at Harvard never talk about whether other students are cute.
