Not really. Paige, Rhonda, and Miesha can get some. The rest look like they wear underwear with d***holes in them...
Title IX was the greatest thing that ever happened for women's sports! Until that went into effect, high school sports for girls were mediocre at best since there was limited opportunity to play at a college level when the parents were responsible for their education.
Title IX forced the universities to offer the same scholarship opportunities to girls as was being given to the male athletes and thus the explosion of women's sports.
I have no problem with womens' sports scholarships since these are girls with exceptional athletic abilities that will use those scholarships to get an education as opposed to the males who use colleges and universities as a stepping stone to the pros.
I have many friends whose daughters received scholarships in either softball or volleyball to universities or colleges which they would otherwise not have been able to afford...........
With that rant coming to an end, I have a solution for the universities offering scholarships to outstanding football/basketball players who are only there for their athletic ability and an attempt to be drafted into the NFL/NBA.
For each athlete under an athletic scholarship (football or basketball) who signs a contract with either an NFL or NBA team following their exit from their respective university, their scholarship obligation should require they reimburse their university for every dollar they received in housing, food and education and to be paid immediately upon receipt of their signing bonus........
5 sets and play against the men
I find that to be the case with tennis too, but I haven’t been able to be interested in women’s tennis since the tranny team took over.
I know. It’s like little league.
Not exactly. The more tickets you sell, and the more viewers you attract to televised sports, the more money you make. Men buy most of the tickets. If women's sports are to reach parity, women need to start buying more tickets. Maybe they could even start bringing their boyfriends.
Most female sports are boring.
And for whatever reason, women’s sports just haven’t made an impact.
I actually have enjoyed women’s college basketball games, as much as the men’s teams.
But the women’s teams just don’t attract much attention.
At San Diego State, for example, the men’s team sells out their 12,000+ seat arena, while the women’s team is lucky to get 1,000 fans to a game, in the same arena. I’ve attended some games where the paid attendance is less than 500 people.
So what can women or liberals say?? You can’t force someone to take an interest in, and attend games for women’s sports.
I almost become an intermittent narcoleptic when watching women's basketball. What a snorer.
their scholarship obligation should require they reimburse their university for every dollar they received in housing, food and education and to be paid immediately upon receipt of their signing bonus........
what about those who receive academic scholarships; should they pay it back upon receiving gainful employment...? If not, why not...?
Seemed a little skewed to the ladies, if you ask me.
Type in google 4 different search terms.

It is to get men to watch!
Womens tennis...It is to get men to watch!
yeah, I’ll never forget the sexual tension of those Billie Jean-Navratilova matches...
I have never been a fan of women’s sports. The only time I watch them is during the Olympics. There is only so much of my life that I am willing to waste watching sports. If I do watch it, it has to be the highest level of competition. So, I mainly watch NFL, Major League Baseball and PGA Golf. I don’t watch women’s sports, don’t watch much College Sports (which is basically Pro Sports’ farm system), and I don’t watch has-been sports (like the senior PGA).
As the late great Yogi Berra once said, how you gonna stop’em from not comin’ out to the ballpark?
I'm glad you're so enthusiastic about government tyranny! Hooray! Is there anything else you love that you'd like to shove down my throat?
I’ve heard that in 2020 they are bringing back Olympic soft-ball as a sport. . .saw it on some news channel. . .I guess they are pandering to the lezbos with that move.
I’m a female and I think watching women’s college basketball is like watching the average junior high boys’ game.
Haven’t seen as much women’s soccer or volleyball, but they don’t seem as boring probably because IMO those sports require a more limited skill set - games are simpler - so women are able to play them well. Not saying that women vb or soccer players aren’t in great shape etc.
OTOH, I would much rather watch women’s figure skating than men’s.
I’m glad you’re so enthusiastic about government tyranny
but look at the greater good that was done...like shutting down men’s baseball teams so that we could enjoy women’s archery...
Bantamweight can be pretty exciting.
To quote one of my friends back when the WNBA was getting started, “I wouldn’t watch a WNBA game if they were playing in my back yard.” Market forces indeed.
