And I hate to say it, but the NCAA did what liberals are constantly doing -- running head-on into themselves as they adopt emotional, irrational causes. They in no way wanted to get crossways with the very people they were trying to politically-co-recto-mollify in the first placed!
Reminds me of the liberal lefty animal lover lady who was affronted by the gay pride parade because they had a float with half naked guys humping on a goat. Basically she said something like:
"How can they be so cruel to that poor animal? I thought gays were supposed to be sensitive?"
