Mountain West Volleyball--Reaping what you sowed

 I had forgotten about this, but it was the captain of Colorado State who is accused of conspiring with the dude on San Jose State's volleyball team to try to get one of the SJSU team members injured during the course of a match in retaliation for that woman joining the lawsuit against the NCAA regarding men in women's sports.

So when I hoped that Colorado State would stand in solidarity with Boise State and the other universities and refuse to play in the Mountain West finals, my hopes were in vain.

It seems that Colorado State's team is worse in another way as well.  Several players took a knee during the National Anthem.  The university claims they are 'critical thinkers'.

The only reason that San Jose State made it to the semi-finals was because of the forfeits from the teams not wanting to play cheaters or risk injury playing a dude.

Despite the cheating, they got beaten last night by Colorado State, whose captain is one of the above kneelers and is the one who 'allegedly' met with the dude to plot the injury of another SJSU player.

Karma's a bitch.

 Steve Martin playing straight man to John Candy.  Misadventures throughout the Midwest.  And a Thanksgiving movie to boot.  Shows the depth of acting that the is hallmark of both men.

Boise State stands by its principles

 Boise State's women's volleyball team beat Utah State on Wednesday to get a place in the semi-finals, which would put them up against San Jose State University.

Boise State had forfeited twice against San Jose State rather than play a team that had a man on it.  San Jose State made it as far as they did, probably because of the five forfeits during the regular season.

And now Boise State is forfeiting again.  Which will cost them a likely place in the finals and a possible championship.  All because the Mountain West conference slipped the forfeit rule into their book without it being voted on.

So anyone that says that men in women's sports doesn't cost women anything can blow it out of their ass.
