I can’t stand it but the only reality TV I watch is sports. If I need my fix of tang I’ll head to Lucky Chengs in NYC or hit up the “Drag Races” they do sometimes in 17th St near DuPont Circle in DC. I may take my kids to check out fire island when I eventually dump my mother’s ashes in LI since she wanted it to near at or near Jones Beach.DMac wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 8:37 am C'mon, Ru and the gals kill it.

Re: The Hate Directed at the LGBTQ+
This was a few years ago. My wife and I went to the " Ugly Disco" dance at the Rochester Convention Center. There was a drag show on stage that was very funny and very entertaining. The folks doing the show and the folks watching the show all had a great time. Where does the evil exist in this.......WWJD?????

I don't know Dr Wizard one of those drag queens on stage was dressed in peach and lavender chiffon. Isn't that your drag queen persona???

Re: The Hate Directed at the LGBTQ+
You wonder why this seems so prevalent….posting to social media increases the perception. There are about 100 transgender athletes in junior and senior high schools. Anyway, whatever international standard is set would be good with me. The coverage and re-posts allows the issue to “punch above its weight”….DMac wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 1:40 pm I'd be upset as a parent too.

Re: The Hate Directed at the LGBTQ+
That's baloney, Snake. Why don't we have HS pitchers pitching LL ball then, or college GKs in the cage for youth league lax?
Do we teach fair play anymore? Don't like it, think it's wrong.

I am more concerned with 16/17 year olds posing as freshmen lacrosse players in high school.

I am speaking for myself. What’s your view of lacrosse players playing down 1 to 2 years to be recruited?DMac wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 5:28 pmWhy?

Re: The Hate Directed at the LGBTQ+
How is that done, they stay back a year or two in school in order to be eligible to play at that level?

Re: The Hate Directed at the LGBTQ+
This is far more prevalent and far more impactful than “transgender” athletes tilting competition. My son was actually 27 months younger than some of his “peers”. Some kids stay back and repeat 8th grade and then do grade to grade transfer in HS. Originally 2022, playing against 2024s and looking great. You have to have the bank to make it happen though. It’s “unfair”….I am surprised I haven’t seen more complaints from those concerned with competitive balance. It’s rampant in lacrosse.

There's almost always someone, bigger, stronger, faster, more coordinated...whatever...and these are biologically, genetically, determined traits. It doesn't really matter how someone was born with these traits; they are "biological advantages".
Individuals are different and that's a fact of life.
Now, what we do with them, how well we train our minds and bodies for peak performance, how well we rise to competition pressure, these are things to celebrate as one's own efforts.
Someone who competes in a sport that is timed always has themselves as their own measure. Improve my time and I've succeeded. But someone is almost always faster if I look hard enough to find that competition. Doesn't mean I failed, indeed I could run or swim or whatever my very fastest time and "lose"...yet I've succeeded in my own effort.
And if that's not how we're looking at high school sports, we're really missing the point.
