    Oh I get it.  I'm all for that if that's how you want to break it up.  Just leave the game and product like it is is all I'm asking.  Give me a different product and let me tell you if it's entertaining, don't change what I already like.  

    Realistically it would probably end up with just the Women's league and the National League since any Male league wouldn't be popular enough while the Women's league would have novelty going for it.

    Ah there it is.  So we should allow woman into men's league who they physically can compete in because it's unfair their sport doesn't have the ratings or money.  How is that fair?  Again, here's the double standard.  

     

    Dude, I want woman to have their own things not delude other things because they want more fame or money.  They don't get the money and fame because they aren't as entertaining.  You can't change that by forcing it but that's exactly what's happening in a lot of things.

    You're completely missing the point. If you want to split things up that way then there should be three leagues one for men, one for women, and one for the best players no matter which side they come from. I mean no one is saying lower the bar for women to be able to play in the NFL that would be stupid, but if a women is above the bar then they sure as hell shouldn't keep her from playing just because she happens to be a woman.

    Except the amount of strength they have per pound is far less than an equivalent male.  All you have to do to see this is put them in a weight room with a guy the same weight watch the differences...id be willing to bet the guy on average would be lifting 100-125 lbs more AT MINIMUM on the compound lifts.  Nobody in their right mind would think that a female should be playing football with males as adults.

    There shouldn't be a specific rule against it though. If someone is the best person available at a position they should be able to play. If none are able to make it then that's just how it hashes out but anyone should be free to try to make it if they want.

    Idk that.  I would assume men are able to or have as many as woman and vice versa.  What are you getting at?

    I mean I'm having trouble thinking of any. If your talking about things like the WNBA that doesn't really count. I mean what man would want to play in a league that would pay them less and give them considerably less prestige. I mean any league that starts with the word Women's essentially implies there is a male version.

    Well idk, are you telling me no man is barred from trying out for any female sport?  Then a follow up if you say none, why have no men try out for them?  I'll tell you why, because they see the unfair advantage and don't want to degrade the integrity  of the sport.  

     

    My my fear isn't the few that could play the sport, it's the compulsory evening of everything now across the gender spectrum so that everything is fair.  But it's not, not to the men who won't go full throttle against a woman.  It will change the whole sport.  I'm more about protecting the sport than anything against woman.

     

    I mean what sport are men not allowed to play.

    This is the issue.  Not more power to her.  Should men be allowed to tryout for female sports?  This makes sense but today's society it's wrong to question the double standard unless it goes one way.  I don't hate woman I'm just not blind to obvious physical differences that delude the integrity of sport.

     

     

    What female sports are men not allowed to play?

  7. With this I feel myself aligning the same way I feel with women in the military, police, fire department, or just any male dominated field. You look at it as if the gender column doesn't exist and just go by what they can do. If they meet the requirements to do the job or with NFL if they're the player that can bring the best value to the position for what you can afford to pay for it then sure go ahead.

    This has been a real opportunity to keep my kids interested in space exploration.  I follow along with my 8 year old son, as he is particularly interested.  I was so pissed, the day they launched the Falcon Heavy, that they didn’t even talk about it in school.  I wrote an email to the teacher making my displeasure known.  

     

    Learning about space and space travel was so interesting to me as a kid.  Kids today don’t have this.  It’s very sad.

    I know right a bigger development then when they made the space shuttle and you had to be actively paying attention to know.

    Update: Todays was a success, just watched. 1st booster landed on the drone ship and the Bangladesh satellite was deployed successful. :thumbsup:

    Just wish the camera wasn't spazzing out during the landing.

    The heavy launched a Tesla into space a few months back, was pretty impressive.  This is not even the rocket going to Mars, that will be the BFR "Big Falcon Rocket"

    Yeah I'm sure the F stands for Falcon.

    This is the Falcon 9, not the Falcon heavy.  This is the rocket that later this year, will take Astronauts to the ISS (first time ever to be done by a private space company).  This is the first flight of the Falcon 9 "Block 5", meaning this is the newest, and last revision to this model.  Unfortunately, looks like it won't launch today...

    Figured it was something like that since it was a satellite and it would be a waste to use the Falcon heavy for something in low Earth orbit.

    I still do not understand that logic......I wouldn't "bet" hundreds for that - but I am not a gambler so there is that.

    I think it comes down to what the payout and odds are. Like for example if I have five envelopes, four are empty and one has five dollars in it. Then each envelope is worth about a dollar just guessing. Or if it's a bet for five dollars that one of the envelopes is empty then it's worth four dollars. Also if we change the amount in the envelope to twenty dollars then each one is about four dollars.
