Freepers: women pretty much useless at athletics

If you don't want to go to the link, then don't go to it, just don't feel the need to post to tell everyone you felt no need to go there.

This goes out to the "ignore them freepers" crowd, too, as everyone knows that 'ignoring bullies is the best way to handle them(mostly what parents tell weedy kids who can't fight)'.

2. From the looks of it, these guys are as unsecure as they get.
Quite pathetic really.

3. Reminds me of the twit that thought he could beat Billie Jean King
at tennis and she kicked his butt. Bobby somebody.

5. ESPN Sports Magazine pointed out
in an article called "Venus Envy" that while performance gains in male athletes have been slowing down, performance gains amongst women have been massive over the past generation and show no sign of diminishing any time soon.

6. I'm not a member of the "ignore them freepers" crowd BUT
I don't like to give their web site hits - they then brag about how popular the site is. So... Any chance you could post some highlights of the morans' insights? :)

9. While i am of the opinion that in physical sports,
Men do hold the edge, that does not mean an exceptional female can't beat men. I also enjoy womens sports. I like to watch them play basketball. And while they use to look very sloppy in boxing they have made great strides, and many of the ladies no are as enjoyable to watch as the men.

10. they certainly have an image problem
You can bet that the extent of their athletic participation is limited to watching the NFL with some beer and pork rines. They can sit there all day and pretend to be athletes.

Like junior,
