There is a direct link, but it's subscribers only.
It looks like very good news, especially if you're involved in any of the less popular men's sports.

"There are a whole bunch of soccer moms who are going to be a little upset,"Well, boo-hoo! I'm sure they were going to vote for W anyway. I'm sick of hearing about soccer moms.

No school I know of is looking for any loophole in order to erode the progress that has been made."

....They're hearing that they shouldn't be equal..."Equality to soccer moms is that women should get special treatment.
I watched a foot race the other day. The first person got an award and money. The second thru the 13th (all men) didn't get anything. The 14th person, a woman, got an award and money. How could this be? Equality!?! The playing field was level from my point of view.
When I was in high school (pop. 3500) i was unable to get onto the Varsity soccer teem. I was faster and stronger then any of the women in my class or any other class for that matter. These same women can get college scolarships for their athletic abilities based on being a woman. Equality my a$$.

This one is a real vote getter. Nuke that title IX. Will make tons of soccer moms happy too see their college boys denied sports participation. Women are naturally less inclined to sports. It's a fact of life. To fund women's college sports equally to men's is absurd. Sorry to be harsh but it's almost a kind of stealth lesbianism.
I have heard that if a girl is good in soccer she is just about guaranteed a college scholarship. Title IX has a lot to do with sports scholarship money too. Not just fielding women's teams.

I wonder if the colleges could get around this by getting rid of the distinctions between "mens" and "womens" sports programs and just make all sports open to both and the best performers make the teams. I can't think of anything more "equal" than that. A pure meritocracy. How could the "equality" police object to this?

Had Gore won the election the administration would now be requiring schools to achieve parity in gay, lesbian, and transgendered sports.

"There are a whole bunch of soccer moms who are going to be a little upset," said Donna A. Lopiano, ... "This generation of women, for the first time, they're hearing that they shouldn't be equal -- that's going to be the message. I don't think that's going to resonate." The feminazi quota queens are going to use this like a baseball bat, to demagogue and batter Bush and Reynolds over the head with. Of course, the key to their success will be the level of ignorance the American public has over what exactly Title IX is, and what its enforcement does.
I notice Nat Review, and now George Will in Newsweak have addressed this problem. This is the perfect place to draw a line in the sand, against quotas. The next goal for the lesbian femisists is quotas in the classroom; ie. " Theres too many men in Engineering !!", and so on. If Gore was President, thats exactly what we would be reading about, now. IMO.
