Serious question. I am lost in this subject.
Should banning male coaches from female sports be considered? Certainly an extreme position, but should that be an option?
No.

You figure it was bound to start unravelling, huh?...
But maybe it's happening a little sooner than anticipated...

If it's the exec I'm thinking of, I could see this being the beginning of the end. Many they'll right the ship, but when this supposed cash cow league starts getting funny about money, that's not a good sign.

A nice, good news story about soccer is a welcome change...
This is a nice initiative. I hope it spreads to other leagues, and encourages players to do the right thing, rather than to try to get away with some sort of manipulation, as is far too common in soccer...

Most of you are probably not familiar with this sport, popular in Europe and parts of Asia. This particular video is highlights of WC QF's between Denmark (2x defending champions) and Hungary. In the other QF's Spain def Norway, France def Germany and Sweden def Egypt

This is interesting...
The golfers who've stayed with the PGA while being critical of their peers who left for LIV are now revealing themselves as utter hypocrites who are just as greedy as are those they've condemned for going to LIV.

As human beings value money and material more and more, I'm afraid that it's unfortunately just a matter of time before tennis also goes in this greedy and selfish direction.
