this is exactly my thoughts on the issue of banning men from playing women’s sports....

If all the redstates banned together the NCAA would back down....

For example, the SEC is a dominate force in college sports, especially football...

I think every state in the SEC is a redstate....removing the SEC from college sports would be catastrophic for the NCAA and the NCAA knows this.....

Alabama just recently, I think, passed a bill banning transgenders from competing in the wrong category. Biological males will only compete with biological males, and biological females will only compete with biological females.

That includes Auburn University, Troy University, and there is one other in this state whose name precludes me now.

That "issue" is of no importance. And that is not even the issue.

The issue, as masterfully scripted by George Orwell through the mouth of his O'Brien, is this:

"The pain flowed into Winston's body. The needle must be at seventy, seventy-five. He had shut his eyes this time. He knew that the fingers were still there, and still four. All that mattered was somehow to stay alive until the spasm was over. He had ceased to notice whether he was crying out or not. The pain lessened again. He opened his eyes. O'Brien had drawn back the lever.
'How many fingers, Winston?'
'Four. I suppose there are four. I would see five if I could. I am trying to see five.'
'Which do you wish: to persuade me that you see five, or really to see them?'
'Really to see them.'
'Again,' said O'Brien.

Perhaps the needle was eighty -- ninety. Winston could not intermittently remember why the pain was happening. Behind his screwed-up eyelids a forest of fingers seemed to be moving in a sort of dance, weaving in and out, disappearing behind one another and reappearing again. He was trying to count them, he could not remember why. He knew only that it was impossible to count them, and that this was somehow due to the mysterious identity between five and four. The pain died down again. When he opened his eyes it was to find that he was still seeing the same thing. Innumerable fingers, like moving trees, were still streaming past in either direction, crossing and recrossing. He shut his eyes again.

'How many fingers am I holding up, Winston?'
'I don't know. I don't know. You will kill me if you do that again. Four, five, six -- in all honesty I don't know.'

'Better,' said O'Brien.

It is essential - to them - that you not only confess with your mouth that a surgeon can change a man into a woman, but that YOU YOURSELF BELIEVE IT IS POSSIBLE.

Because if you believe THAT is possible, then you will believe anything.

SEC need to get together and establish a new ruling organization to replace NCAA. No reason for them to follow NCAA.

Just say “no”.
