Ridicule as a weapon. I remember soccer: ​In April 2017, a scoreline involving the USWNT (United States Women’s National Team) sent shockwaves through the sports world: a 5-2 defeat at the hands of the FC Dallas Under-15 boys academy team. Occurring during a training camp in Dallas, Texas, the match was intended as an informal “tune-up” ahead of international friendlies against Russia. While the result was widely circulated as a sign of weakness by critics, soccer analysts and team veterans like Carli Lloyd have since clarified the specific tactical goals of the session.

So, the WMBA offers the high school kids 2 million to play and lose. The women get to split 8 million with their organization. What the heck, like pro wrestling, it is all show anyway.

Travis just backed the entire bunch of virtue signalling leftists into their own self-created corner. Nice approach!

I'd bet if the boys team played full speed and with intensity, the gals would be hard pressed to get the ball across half court.

If they allowed the gals to cross half court they'd be reduced to shooting very long range threes...presuming they weren't contested.

I also wonder which ball they'd play with...the regulation NBA/high school ball or the smaller one the wnba uses.

The boys would have a 1% chance of losing this game.

The winner of the game will be decided by the ball. Girls can’t shoot a boys ball. Girls make those logo shots because the ball is smaller. They have a bigger target and a lighter ball. Girls could not get even 25 points with the boys ball. But also the boy’s sharp shooters will not be able to shoot from outside with a girls ball. They would need a month or two getting used to the small ball. It fits in the palm of their hands. Everyone will be able to palm it. But the boys might be able to win anyway because every one of them could jump over everyone of the girls. They would own the sky. And the speed.

Now THAT I’d pay to see....and when it turned out the way we all know it would I’d laugh and.

But as we know it’ll never happen.

Instead Clay Travis will be called a bunch of nasty names by the usual nasty suspects.

All of the universities with a powerhouse NCAA women’s b-ball program recruit a “pick-up” men’s team from the student body for their varsity women’s team to practice against. These typically are young men who weren’t good enough to get a sports scholarship at any uni where they wanted to go. Yet these “scrub” men perpetually give the women’s team a drubbing.

Which is the whole point. The women aren’t likely to improve as much playing against their own second string as they do playing against a bunch of boys they can’t beat.

“The Nashville Balls. A 100% trans organization — men finally breaking the glass ceiling in women’s sports!”

“Balls”, in this context, refers to Basketballs, as we we’re a family-oriented site.

“The Nashville Balls. A 100% trans organization — men finally breaking the glass ceiling in women’s sports!”

This is the best plan and the WNBA should be fully supportive.

I remember idiots claiming no man could beat either Serena or Venus Williams at tennis - including the sisters themselves:

“German tennis player Karsten Braasch defeated both Venus and Serena Williams back-to-back in a ‘Battle of the Sexes’ exhibition match. The challenge arose after the sisters, then teenagers, claimed they could beat any male player ranked outside the top 200; Braasch, ranked 203rd in the world, volunteered to play.

The Match: Braasch beat Serena 6-1 and Venus 6-2 in single-set contests.

Context: Braasch had played a round of golf and consumed alcohol and cigarettes prior to the matches, stating he took off 50% of his serve to keep it ‘fun.’”

This offer significantly increases the $1 million wager Travis initially proposed in 2023, which was rejected by the Aces.

“Important announcement: I am upping my offer, $10 million dollars for a head-to-head basketball game between the defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces and a boy’s high school state title team of my choice,” Travis posted on X Monday. “If the Aces beat my team, I will give them $10 million.”

He was just confirming that the Aces are whores.

Old Story, man asks a woman if she would sleep with him for $1,000,000. She says sure. He asks her if she would sleep with him for $100. She says, “What do you think I am, a whore?” He responds, “We already determined that, now we are just negotiating the price”.

Separately, in the pre NIL days, the kids would not be able to accept the money as it would kill their amerteur status.

Testosterone is a very powerful and sometimes even dangerous substance.

Only a fool denies this....

Love the loge, especially the correct number of balls, and the net with no outlet; kind of like a sack.
