It is Tuesday morning, June 28. I’ll be starting the second day of my solutions architecture class in a couple of hours, but I’ve got a little time to get my mind in the right place prior to the start of my training day.
Yesterday afternoon something struck me while I was thinking about the Supreme Court ruling – yeah, I know, I’m kind of dwelling on it – but let me tell you why. After dinner last night, we were relaxing, watching a little TV, and I flipped the station over to some women’s soccer, the US Women’s National Team versus Columbia (nice win in a friendly for the Americans). It struck me that there are a lot of women’s sports programs in some deeply red states that might not care for the changes to abortion laws. There are some really good women’s sports programs in some of these states – soccer, volleyball, basketball… the lit covers the complete range of women’s sports.
The transfer portal that opened up during the pandemic is wide open these days, and I think there might be some interesting developments in that area. I fully expect a few young ladies will take umbrage at the desire of a few to control so many.
There might be a shift…
There might also be some other considerations school athletic departments might have to make to keep their teams intact.
I think there will be a story or two yet to come on this subject. Kansas votes on a constitutional amendment the first week of August, and if the state constitution changes, Kansas will ban safe abortion.
That’s enough for now.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
