It's past time someone took a common sense stand. Good for FINA.

Great news! Now the NCAA should take notice, but of course they won't.

Mouthy Megan Rapinoe sounds off on the transgender issue....

Maybe she should remember at the peak of their careers the USWNT in 2017 got beat by a team of 15 year-old boys in Texas... yeah... way to be the "woke" spokesperson Mouthy Megan...

Saw on twitter where this was only for males who transitioned after they were 12. Just another way for them to ruin children earlier, I suppose.

This comment is very telling for our culture we live in…

" Instead, she argued that excluding them from competing at lower levels is cruel, as people value their 'kid's high school volleyball team' ahead of the lives and wellbeing of transgender people."

When I grew up, competition was all about trying to win. Some of us were not good enough to win; however, damn right, we wanted to. Not winning, for me, was about the understanding of my strengths and weaknesses. My parents were happy that I tried and told me to focus on being a winner in something. That has been my guidance all my life.

My brother is a fantastic leader and I believe to be the best sales person on earth. Those are his strengths. My strength are all about making his strength become a reality. He and I have always run businesses together, as we do today. I go back to the advice of my parents and get excited about my role! No participation trophy's for me. I'm good at what I do!!!

I saw this yesterday and immediately wondered what the NCAA will do. Are they governed by FINA and do they have to follow FINA's guidance and recommendations? I honestly do not know, but if they are not required to follow FINA's guidance, I am not sure if this decision will impact collegiate swimming at all. The NCAA seems to have a mind of their own and will not do anything that exposes them to potential lawsuits from the transgender community.

Uh-Oh... you done gone and stepped on ol' Pinocchio's toes with the "participation trophy" comment!!

I agree whole heartedly agree that the participation trophy generation who rarely kept score, if at all, during their formative years of playing organized sports has lost touch with reality if they ever even had it.

Now this soy-boy trophies for all crowd have reached late 20's - mid 30's and can't function in a dog eat dog world.

That's why many of them still live at home and mommy cooks pizza rolls and chicken nuggets for them daily.

They also lie about accomplishments, DONATIONS (LOL) and their status in life just to boost their fragile little egos.

I find it damn funny that she pretty much self-owned with her rationale. If we had anything resembling a legitimate press someone would have asked her about losing to a 15-U team when her team was at the height of their dominance over women's soccer in the entire freaking world!!!!

Clown show... the entire left and their supporters.

The NCAA, if has 1/100th of a functioning accumulative brain, would use this as their scapegoat answer.

Will be interesting to see how it pans out.

If they keep pushing the narrative that there is no difference in gender in athletics do away with the WNBA for a season and have them play with the men. What's the difference right???

The party of science really gets it don't they?

I think you're right. It won't help collegiate swimming but it keeps those with certain competitive advantages off of our women's world and Olympic teams and keeps women's world records in the hands of the women that earned them, and I think that's a great start.

I totally agree. It is a positive step, but lots more to do. I feel badly for the American collegiate swimmers and the young ladies in other sports, such as high school track and field who are facing this issue.

Wow...just wow...

Please let this be forefront in 2022 midterms and in 2024.....

I know parents that spend @$$ loads of money for their kids to compete in GIRLS volleyball, GIRLS soccer, GIRLS softball and comments like that from the "woke lefties" would damn sure be on every freaking political ad I was in charge of.

Wasn't the lefties claim to fame on how they defeated the Big Bad Orange Man "soccer moms?" Well tell all the Karens', Debbies', Val's, etc... that Frank, now named Frannie, is a 6'4" 215 goalie along with "her" two 5'8" 170 pound strikers in the soccer league this fall.

There is a reason Ole Megan is not the spokesperson for Subway any longer. I went to one about two weeks ago out of town, but had she still been the spokesperson or face of Subway, they would not have seen my money and they know that.

This should sting a little... Imagine this going viral...oops... it already has...





So 8th and 9th grade boys beat the vaunted Women's National Team 7-1.... But yet there's no reason why men can't pretend to be women to compete in sports?

Wow... just wow.

How does Subway know? Did you call some corporate complaint line? Tweet at them? Inquiring minds want to know! What did they say in response? Did you write to them? I haven't been this excited to find out a response since the Corinthians wrote back!

They knew she was bad for business because Subway's business had tanked. That is how they know. They fired her ass.

If you can't figure that out then I cannot help you.

Here is at least one story. Search for more. I am sure you can handle that.

Marxist Leftist "morality" and "logic" is so twisted and illogical, that it now has "feminists" (who supposedly "care about women") publicly saying that "your girls volleyball team doesn't matter" and "women's sports don't matter".

Because the "new thing" that their Marxist overlords have told them to push is the Satanic transgender agenda.

Because they've sold their soul to the Satanic Leftist agenda...and now their brain is scrambled and they don't know up from down.

They probably also think that they want to ban guns because they "care about the children", while they simultaneously RELIGIOUSLY WORSHIP murdering unborn children in abortions.

Oh.... My bad Pinocchio..... 5-2 against middle school and freshmen is WAAAYYYY better than 7-1.
Oh, by the way... those numbers represent scores. Scores represent a team that has the most points, runs, goals vs. the team that has a lower number. That determines who wins or loses.

A "win" means you defeated the opponent. A "loss" means you didn't win." I know it's tough for you and your generation to muster since you got a trophy for just showing up.

I know a trophy you have won!!! Longest nose.

In 2017 what was their ranking?

How dominant were they?

Keep trying to justify your "woke agenda."

You showed us who you are... You are the Adam "Pinocchio" Schiff of this board..... If it doesn't happen, you just make it up and run with it....
