Message: [QUOTE="BroadwayVa, post: 2051302, member: 6118"] The sports world still has a [URL='http://mashable.com/2014/08/01/women-sports-twitter/']long way to go[/URL] when it comes to truly respecting women. But the St. John's fifth-graders haven't known a world where the UConn women aren't exalted — and yes, [URL='http://mashable.com/2016/03/27/uconn-women-geno-auriemma/']criticized[/URL] — for their excellence. And those fifth-graders just voted unanimously to stand by their female teammates by sitting out. [SIZE=5][B]To me the greatest things to come out of the article are two fold:[/B] [B]the kids stayed together as a TEAM--win lose or forfeit--[/B] [B]The second was comparing the negativisms heaped upon Uconn winning streak--to the negativism of GIRLs--yes can you really believe Girls--think they can actually do anything along side of BOYS??? (don't ask my wife if you treasure your head). Both teams : These boys and Girls --and Uconn WBB have done each other proud.
