Student paper: "There's no stopping it...men's sports are better than women's sports"

'Why do this now, you ask? Because it is always around this time of year when March Madness takes its place at the top of all the sports coverage that a very scattered minority of people choose to question the unequal coverage given to both the male and female basketball tournament.

This annual inquiry is merely a microcosm of a larger occurrence, and this issue deserves to be addressed without a thick layer of sugar-coating poured on top of it.

So what separates the sexes on the playing fields? First, it is public preference of watching the best perform at the highest level of play. People want to see who they perceive as the best of the best play against one another, and that fact does not exclude gender.

Take the WNBA for example. Los Angeles Sparks forward Candace Parker was the first female player that was ever rumored to possibly be capable of playing in the NBA.

However, while she possesses the height to play in the league, she does not have the strength of a center or forward to operate in the paint, nor the quickness or ball handling ability to play either guard position or defend either guard position.'
