Why Women and Sports Don't Mix

Watching Sportscenter last night let me know that women and sports do not mix. They showed Women's Australian Open Tennis highlights and it was Sloan Stephens against Victoria Azarenka. Azarenka was the big favorite as the defending champ against a 19 year old who's on a cinderella run and Azarenka dominates the first set and then goes up 5-1 in the second. She's basically at match point now. Then Azarenka loses three points a row and is only up 5-4. She told an ESPN reporter afterwards what happened next in an interview that's in the link above. What Azarenka basically told the reporter is that she had a panic attack. She was looking up and all around and getting nervous and she had a panic attack but said she was injured and got looked at by the trainer. She came back ten minutes later and ended up winning the match. But I have to make my point here. Could you imagine a fucking guy having an anxiety attack in a playoff game? Like if Ray Lewis was getting anxiety in the Super Bowl and telling his coach he couldn't do it what the fuck would we say? We'd say he's the biggest pussy on the planet. But she has a panic attack in a major and freaks out and gets therapy in the locker room and it's cool. Listen ladies, you may be athletic and good and some things but sports were made for men. We don't make excuses and we don't have major freak outs in the middle of huge games. If we're ever in a sandwich baking contest we'll call the women, but you should really leave the sports to us. It's the way god intended it to be. Men doing man things while women stay in the kitchen.
