No, because most schools don't have enough shower space to do everything you are saying. If males claim to be M-F transgendered and want to use the girls' shower, where do the girls go who don't want to be in there with males? Is the DOJ paying to upgrade all public schools to deal with this?

First of all, it's not just abuse that I'm worried about. It's her being exposed to naked males and males being able to see her naked, even if there is no contact involved. There doesn't have to be a violation of laws for there to be things that I just don't want happening. Also, schools have a higher level accountability for what their employees do than what other kids do.

When my daughter gets to the age where she is expected to shower at school after gym class and/or athletic events, if the school is not providing a penis-free place to shower, she won't be participating in activities.

It would be faster to list the World Cup and Olympic bids that didn't involve bribes.

Wait . . . a major sports franchise from Massachusetts cheated??? I'm shocked!!!

The Sox are going to lose two games this week. This is one of them. The other one will either be tomorrow or Sunday.

Just looked at the radar and said, "Holy f***!" Hope everybody at the game stays safe.

People are saying that Saladino will give you better defense yet no worse offense vs RHP. Not sure that qualifies as a "solution."

Jones has an 0.61 WHIP, and 8.59 K/9 and a 4.67 K/BB. Not even remotely shaky. Don't mess with what's working.

Game is over when the batter touches home plate. Was he on the field before or after then?

Sure you heard about it, but you were 3 when it happened.

Hayes needs to play every day in AAA unless a spot opens up for him where he's gonna play 3+ games per week. Maybe time to give Coats a shot.

I want every sports fan in New England suspended for offending the entire rest of the country.

They use each team's season-to-date ELO rating as the base, then adjust for starting pictcher, home/road, and travel (for 1st game in a series for road team). Cubs ELO is so high they are going to be a favorite against almost any team, any starter, even on the road.

No that's extreme, but institutions like college sports and the Catholic Church did provide easier environments for predators-places where males ran the show with a lot of support and little accountability from a large base. Hopefully both are past that now.

I'm not a Republican but I am a right-leaning independent. I could have supported Kasich, Christie, Paul and possibly Rubio. I could actually support someone with positions similar to either Trump or Hillary if they weren't such loathsome people, but I can't in good conscience bring myself to vote for either. Almost certainly voting for Johnson. I would love to see a big organization of support to try and get him up over 5%. Maybe this gets the ball rolling to more 3rd party/independent support in future elections.

Trump names Christie head of transition team. I can't recall a candidate ever announcing that position before VP, but then nothing in this election has been by the book.

The three worst hitters in the lineup right now are Navarro, Rollins and Jackson. Hayes can't play C or SS. He can't play CF either, but he could bump Garcia to RF and Eaton to CF, but even then you're giving up a ton of defense to get his bat in the lineup.

That doesn't mean his supporters have read them. The only thing I hear from Trump supporters is that they're tired of politicians and Trump is different. I've never heard one discuss his positions.

Both teams have two very talented teams in their division (CLE/KC, PIT/STL) who are badly underperforming right now. I think both win their division but both will get challenged more than they are now.

Johnson will take far more votes away from Trump than from Hillary. Hillary should be insisting that he get in the debates, and Trump probably isn't bright enough to refuse.

I didn't say all of Trump's supporters are hateful and violent. I said that Trump's hatefulness is what is appealing to his voters emotionally. Most Trump supporters don't even know what he really stands for.

If you strip away the hateful parts of Trumpism, he doesn't even have a chance. He won by appealing to people's emotions, not by taking certain positions.

Officially yes, but I think he's got it pretty well locked up.
