Another reason for you to start another dumb thread. You have the Gamecock Central record in your cross hairs.

I believe he is employed by this site and uses multiple accounts.
Incorrect.... I woman is MUCH more easily deceived than a man. Pitching a baseball is very much about deception....
She was created with the ability to be deceived, actually. We can get into Scripture if you'd like, but people don't want to hear it.
It's not a bad thing, it's just the way it is there are things a woman does that a man never could, as well.... But this is not one of them
Maybe she's just strike-zone fluid? Some days it feels like a strike, other days it feels like a ball.
Who are we to judge?
In her defense, it’s only one call. But I can say this…every NBA game I watch with a female referee … they always make a random out of nowhere call where you can tell everyone on the court is thinking, “what the hell?” And it’s obvious the players and coaches can’t get in their faces like they might do with a male referee. They literally just have to shrug their shoulders and go with it.
I know this seems sexist and small-minded. I get it. But I’m not exaggerating. It happens without fail. And some of the men make some strange ones too…but they get the reputation of being poor refs.

I mean every game I watch with a male referee I see the same thing as far as bad calls. It’s called being human. It literally has nothing to do with gender.
I watch a good many NBA games. I shrug my shoulders almost every game due to calls by the referees. Very few women calling these games.
Agree. That’s my point. It happens without fail. Not a single one of them is a solid ref. And it’s obvious the coaches and players can’t react the same way as they would a male. Even the announcers don’t react the same way.
I watch a lot of NBA too, and besides the top 5-6 refs, the male refs make just as many random, bad calls. You are able to learn the rules and apply them or not. Watch guys like Ray Acosta ref an NBA game and you will never complain about a woman calling a game again. The only difference I see is the players don't feel free to absolutely go in on a female ref like they do the male ones.

A poor ref is a poor ref, regardless of sex. Set a proper standard for quality, and whoever meets it, meets it, regardless of sex.
Wait a minute, last time that was spread around, you and I were on the list of posters who were "him". Or was he actually "me"?
I consider myself a conservative Christian and this is a load of crap lol.
Obviously there are some things men can do that women can't; calling balls and strikes is not one of them.
Strength,power,size,speed, are things certainly that favor male over female.However,eyesight is not one of them.
A lot of people don't understand that. They see DEI initiatives as some racial quota system. They don't understand or are unaware that racial quota systems have been unconstitutional since 1978. DEI initiatives are generally instituted to create a culture where all employees are valued. They are, also, used as a recruiting vehicle to locate employees of different backgrounds and cultures. Employees are generally required to meet some minimum standard in most occupations. So this notion about DEI meaning "Didn't Earn It" is patently false. Now, this does not mean that the employee with the highest grades or test scores is going to get the job all the time. Employment is about fitting the employer's needs. As I have said repeatedly, an employer can hire whoever it wants as long as that employee fits a minimum standard set by that industry.
