Coach of Vermont school banned for forfeiting game over transgender player defends action

The coach of a Vermont high school girls basketball team that was banned from state athletics after forfeiting a game against a squad with a trans player defended the decision — stressing the danger of a biological male playing against girls.

“I’ve got four daughters. I’ve coached them all at one point in their careers playing high school basketball,” Chris Goodwin, coach of the girls’ team at the Mid-Vermont Christian School, said Monday on “Fox & Friends.”

“I’ve also filled in for the boys’ coach when he can’t make a practice, and I run those practices, and boys just play at a different speed, a different force … than the girls play. It’s a different game,” he said, adding that it would be “irresponsible” and “asking for an injury” to a smaller female athlete.

I liked the idea proposed on a similar thread:
The coach should recruit an NFL-size guy who "identifies" as a girl and put him in the game to cover the opposing guy every time this other guy is put in the game ... you know, to make things fair.

Even if Trump wins, the swamp is so entrenched in this country, there is no hope.

This is what it takes. Just refuse to go along with it. Women especially must refuse it. It ends fast if the women refuse to participate.
What happened to feminism?

Title IX is established law. Has anyone taken the schools which play transgender players to court for violation of the law???

Too bad he isn’t the Wrestling Coach. The boys must avoid the girls breasts and not touch them during wrestling matches. How the hell can boys wrestle girls if they cannot leverage their torso’s?

Can’t wait for the NFL and NBA to have Affirmative Action by the players since they are so aggressive in the coaching, and ownership of the games.

Maybe when there are lots of the best players sidelined becasue of race or gender set asides, blacks will understand the damage to greater society having unqualified people in positions. They would scream the game is destroyed and for all the reasons AA would harm the NFL or NBA, they might actually be able to make those same arguements in the workplace.

Elon Musk is putting American in Space simply because Affirmative Action at NASA has rendered them incapable. Government should stimulate, not destroy.

Every home schooled kid takes one Federally financed gift of around 10k USD from the schools. If every parent pulled their kids from public schools they would collaspe, along with the DNC.

If Trump can sign an EO like Biden does, and end USG backing of student and AA business loans, it would force the colleges to fund students themselves. If they want to give a scholarship, there should be no Federal Funds involved when they are Violating Title X, IX or the First Amendment.

It's a game to them within their communities to see which of them can climb to the top and get what they believe is prestige.

They are sick individuals that have bought into the idea that going viral is the way to make it at the expense of women.

Shame them. Call them out from the stands. Whistle and blow horns at the games. It would take maybe two brave souls to get the audience on their side. We have the numbers and need to stop being afraid.

That’s exactly right.

You gotta wonder why EVERY coach and parent of a girls’ sports team doesn’t take the same stand.

I agree with the first part, but not the second.

Parents need to feel the shame of the introspection that must come for raising someone who is this mentally confused. Without the shame and thoughts of “what did I do wrong”, there can be no correction of this. It is the same with homosexuals, show me a parent who is not ashamed that their son is taking or giving it up the arse, and I’ll show you why they are this way.

The very job of the Parents is to raise a moral generation, to know right from wrong, and choose well. Sorry, but homosexuality, which we now label as “Happy”, “wonderful”, “enlightened” and “gay” leads the entire nation into perdition.

We are not as bad as our weakest Citizen, nor are we as great as our best West Point graduate. Somewhere there is a mean between trannies and a hero soldier, and we have been sliding downwards on that scale for quite some time.
