Message: [QUOTE="walkrightier, post: 2427559, member: 8013"] Hi, I'm @TheBigHop13 on twitter so I thought I'd comment on this situation. 1. I'm not generally a big field hockey fan, but, as a UConn Alum, I'd celebrate anything UConn wins. 2. I like not using my real name on twitter so I decided to set "UConn Field Hockey Appreciator" as my twitter name just for kicks. I'm probably going to change it again in a few days. 3. I don't care if someone doesn't like or watch field hockey. I don't. I don't even normally watch our women's basketball team. Thats not what made the tweet Sexist. 4. What made Oregon's comment sexist is that it implied that it was stupid to celebrate an all female, less prestigious sport. Again, I'd take pride in anything UConn wins regardless of gender/prestige etc. 5. The point [USER=1222]@UChusky916[/USER] makes about how Oregon's field hockey team would react to that tweet is a good one. [/QUOTE]
