yes, it was this horrifying....

OK now that the Women's NCAA Basketball Tournament is over, can we quit pretending that womens’ basketball is on the same par as men's? To put the back-to-back national champion UConn women in the same class as the 1970's UCLA men’s teams with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Bill Walton, etc., is highly insulting.

I’ve seen my nephew’s 6th grade boy’s team play more inspired than those college gals in the first half of the CHAMPIONSHIP GAME last night. What does that say about the quality of opponents who got blown out all season by UConn? Why do these women roll over and lose by 40, 50, even 70 points? Are they really even trying?

The local state university here had to end the popular men's wrestling and water polo teams to make way for new money-sucking women's lacrosse and women's equestrian teams in order to comply with Title IX. Equestrian!!! Wait, it gets worse: desperate to find women to join the equestrian team, the university recruited an inexperienced young girl who fell off a horse and DIED!!!!!

As if the tragic death of that young girl isn't enough, you will never find a better exhibit for the repeal of Title IX than this year’s NCAA Women’s tournament.
