SportsFilter: The Thursday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
The idea that title IX is unfair if there are any cuts to boys sports is just a strange argument to me. The amount of money that is available for sports in a district is limited, so how could opportunities for girls be expanded without affecting the boys? The argument boils down to it is "unfair" to take away the advantage that boys have had in school sports.
