I never used the word wimpy, for the record, that was another poster.
I read that in the article as well, and I am left with the same question - what moral belief is being compromised?
A belief in forming and educating boys and girls separately doesn’t rise (IMHO) to the level of a moral belief. And playing a game against a team with a female 2nd basemen just doesn’t seem to negatively impact one’s profound respect for women and girls.
Again, JMO.
Wasn’t there a story about a player a year or so ago who refused to play in a football game or something where he would have been up against a woman? As far as I recall he just didn’t want to be in the position of causing physical injury to a female. I think that’s admirable.
