Barry Lane's quote got me thinking about the ramifications of allowing women to play in men's events and vice versa. If this bantering of "equality" continues sports as we know it will cease to exist. Someone, somewhere is going to take the equality issue to court and win. Based off of that ruling then all sports will have be opened to all genders (see Title IX). Women will be allowed to play all men's sports and men will be allowed to play in all women's sports. For the men it will not be a big change until rules are set up to allow for gender neutrality. In golf ladies will be able to play from a different set of tees. In basketball men cannot guard ladies and men must stay outside the paint. In volleyball a lady must touch the ball at least once before it goes back over the net (that rule already exists in co-ed volleyball.) I think you see where I'm going with this. What's worse is womens sports will go away and that will cut out alot of women who cannot compete with the men even if they receive some type of handicap. It was interesting to watch Sorenstam and Wie compete on the PGA tour but I don't see anything but inevitable disaster for womens sports being the outcome. THOUGHTS????

P.S. Ladies, please don't take offense, I enjoy watching womens sports (volleyball, golf, basketball, etc) but I just don't see any good coming out of all this.
