In your opinion, should sports leagues be separated by gender? Why or why not?

Yes. There aren’t many women that will have a fair shot in men’s sports.

NFL: you got 6’+ 225+lbs linebackers, 300 pound offensive and interior defensive linemen. They just would match up and get seriously hurt.

NBA: a bunch of 6’5+ men mostly, no woman would match up against that

MLB: Baseball and Softball use different sized balls and would probably need to regulate new sized balls intern a size of a baseball and softball if they were to combine the sport

NHL: Fights breakout all the time.

It just wouldn’t make sense. However I would love for the WNBA to be marketed better to promote female basketball, and would love to see more women’s sports get more national recognition and good tv deals.
