    Wise words. Sports are entertainment. If you, athlete, put in the work and achieve a full ride or offer to the pros then go on an enjoy that life while you can.

          If this comment is not sarcastic in nature, then please disregard my next comments. Assuming it was sarcastic, as a reminder for those that do not read basic statistics, female athletes fair far better in school vs non athletes by “not a little, by A Lot” as a percentage and group within a student body population. If the primary purpose of education is to make higher productive output (employees/employers), incentivizing females to play sports is a NO Brainer for society’s money well focused. Read this USA Today article exploring 45 years of title ix and benefits to society.

          Before Title IX, there were only 32,000 women competing at the intercollegiate level; now there are 150,000+ competing women. Even with title ix, despite advances, there is still gender discrimination that limits sporting opportunities for women at the intercollegiate level. The playing field is far from level for them. For example, although women in Division I colleges are 53 percent of the student body, they receive only 41 percent of the opportunities to play sports, 36 percent of overall athletic operating budgets, and 32 percent of the dollars spent to recruit new athlete.

          Have male athletes lost programs? Absolutely. But they had a disproportionate amount of the programs and money to begin with. Interestingly, a positive reality for male sports is title ix has broadened male sports programs pulling some money away from an expensive male program and applying that money into 2 or 3 new other sports male programs. Also, intercollegiate intramural male participation has been on the steady rise for decades meaning there are other organized sports programs filling in the gaps for male athletes on a college campus. Is title ix perfect? Arguably not, but it is extremely important in its efforts to try to make sure the “less than” of our society hurry up and get to the same productivity as a white male if we want to harness the power of All our people and stay ahead of the rising world superpowers at our heels.

                College Football's 85 head count Athletic full rides, feed all title 9 female equivalency activities, with respect to athletic aid awards.

                Coronavirus could wipe out College Football and the adherence to title 9 legislation in collegiate athletics.

                Is the what the New Normal looks like?

                  It's a Temporary Abnormal. Do you think people will be afraid of this virus forever? There is no vaccine for death and a life is never saved, only prolonged. This has happened for the entire existence of humanity. Smallpox, plague, black death. There have been much worse diseases, the only difference is the coverage and fear mongering. Why don't we have a running total of cancer or heart disease deaths on the TV everyday? Because at some point people choose to do the best they can and go about their lives with an understanding that they are not immortal and would rather enjoy the lives they have.

                    Or because cancer and heart disease aren’t contagious. Just sayin’

                      But Oregonians aren't changing their behavior out of fear by giving up their favorite microbrews even though they contribute to both of the above. Just sayin'.

                        No direct correlation between microbrews and cancer or heart disease, or Covid for that matter. You might need a bigger shovel to keep digging that hole.

                          Here's the big shovel. You should read the warning labels on alcohol sometime Doc.
                          From our beloved CDC:
                          Drinking too much can harm your health. Excessive alcohol use led to approximately 88,000 deaths and 2.5 million years of potential life lost (YPLL) each year in the United States from 2006 – 2010, shortening the lives of those who died by an average of 30 years.

                          Over time, excessive alcohol use can lead to the development of chronic diseases and other serious problems including:
                          High blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, liver disease, and digestive problems. Cancer*of the breast, mouth, throat, esophagus, liver, and colon. Weakening of the immune system, increasing the chances of getting sick. Learning and memory problems, including dementia and poor school performance. Mental health problems, including depression and anxiety. Social problems, including lost productivity, family problems, and unemployment.

                          And, in some cases, posting dumb stuff with no proof on anonymous message boards.

                          Should I also post the warnings about marijuana use, sedentary lifestyle and depression which have at worst been encouraged or at least been avoided recently?

                              That’s old news. Drinking a microbrew every now and again is most likely just fine. Keep digging. Your generalizations just might get you all the way to China.
