2. Just Another Proof that Testosterone Is more Imporant than Reality
Edited on Thu Dec-23-10 11:13 PM by dballance
Once again the testosterone-fueled arena of sports is highlighted. How about we look into the dark problem of date-rape by college "athletes?" That would be an interesting investigative article by a journalist. Oh, but we don't have real journalists anymore and reporting the facts might embarrass the establishment. I challenge any or you "journalists" to do a real story."

3. It's about time someone stands up to the PIC
That's right. The Penis Industrial Complex has taken over our country and there's no hope. Men and Women should stand up and say "No more athletics for student athletes." And no more enjoyment of athletics either. The phallus dominated news media has betrayed us.

4. You have no idea what you are talking about
Geno Auriemma is the coach of the UCONNs WOMENS's basketball team. They won 89 games in a row. Breaking the record set by the UCLA MEN. Many have downplayed the record because people are mad that women broke a men's record. I am a man and I say bravo to these women. This winning streak spans more than two years. You would think in a game like basketball that no matter how good some team is that one team might trip them up in a two year span they did not. These girls are really fucking good.

6. I was confused
Edited on Fri Dec-24-10 01:42 AM by Demstud
I thought there was a team that won over 100

edit:
Ah, there was a women's college bball team that won 131 straight in the 1950's, but since the NCAA didn't sponsor women's basketball back then it's not an NCAA record :-)

Just wondering how you think you made any statement that supported or disputed what I posted since you bothered to post as reply to mine.
