The same can be said that if you ran Usain Bolt against the fastest women sprinter, and she lost to him, your opinion would be that women's track is "crappy".


That's not an accurate comparison to what he was talking about. For your example, it would need to be a guy that was a decent track athlete at his local high school that could easily beat one of the top female track stars in the country. He wasn't saying that Lebron James could beat the top WBBA player. I hear and understand what he's saying. On the other hand, if you listen to any of the talking heads on TV, you would think that women are close if not better than men in many athletic areas. Sure we know it isn't true, but it's the PC garbage that's spewed out every day.

Pianoman, i was typing my post when you were typing yours and you NAILED IT. The talking heads on tv DO give the impression that the girls can compete, and it is COMPLETE PC BS. PC is the biggest problem we face in this country today. Free speech is only available to liberals and minorities today.

Yeah I was close to the women's world record for the mile in HS and went under it by around 8 seconds my freshman year of college. I was not an elite miler either.
