Listened to good five minutes of it before I first posted in this thread. Really don't agree that racism, death threats and extortion of money from/towards your teammates should be part of any sport.

You think 2K14 MyCareer should have veterans making death threats and taking your VC out of your pockets in your rookie year?

Uh where did i say there needs to be a ban? and i never said anything about the other crap you rambled on about

All i said was the NBA/NFL should stay a men's league

Sports are literally GAMES that are COMPETITIVE and involve PHYSICAL FITNESS. That's pretty much it. Women, by nature, are qualified by that. Maybe a large majority of women that a given guy knows aren't really 'into' sports as interests, but that doesn't preclude the entire gender from participating in whatever ways they see fit.

As far as the sensitivity that goes into discussions about sports, brought on by women, men that 'have been sensitized by women', or the liberal media...get over your neanderthal self and realize that athletes have lives after sports. Many former athletes suffered greatly after sports because they didn't have proper care of injuries or general maintenance on their bodies during their career, so it's RELEVANT to be cautious and sympathetic when a guy damn near tears his money-making leg in two. I've shattered my ankle and lower leg in the past; it's not fun to be in traction and have to rehab basic motor skills (and I wasn't getting paid for it).

Some women's sports may not be as fun to watch, but honestly I see Olympic Track & Field and FIFA Soccer exactly the same regardless of sex. Sports is not about seeing the gruesome side of life, it's about the spirit of competition and the love of the game. If you're enjoying your sports because they're brutal, then you may possibly have some kind of sociopathic tendencies that need attention.

BTW, for what it's worth, I'm a college-educated 31-year-old male that played sports (track, basketball) in high school, so I have *some* scruples when talking about sports.
Um HS and pro is completely a different thing

You see MEN FROM OUTSIDE THE U.S AND ROOKIES COME INTO THE NBA AND GET CRUSHED a women could not take one elbow that a Z-Bo or Cousins would throw

BASKETBALL/NBA IS A PHYSICAL SPORT AND THE NBA DOES NOT NEED TO GET ANY DAMN SOFTER

WNBA HAS THEIR OWN THING GOING ON GOOD LUCK TO THEM

Um Women have soccer they're good at it , baseball/softball , tennis , volleyball , basketball and im not sure what else

THE NFL is a men's league
NBA is a men's league
NHL is a men's league

You can't say different until something changes in the future for those 3 leagues
MLB is still a men's league but i will not disagree women could play baseball if they could go through Low/high A , AA , AAA and be good in the majors

No because men are not allowed to play in that league. How are you not understanding this?

Rambo don't talk about the NFL bullying case if you haven't actually read about it and not just heard a few headlines. It was clear racism and needed to be punished.
