VAR as twisted Hand of God (gutted for Egypt)

Unreal.

Cabo Verde, thank you for showing us the beauty of sport.

OMG!!!

My goodness... this Croatian keeper.

"Some of the most vocal, full-throated opposition to the A.I. Initiative has come from one particular C.S.U. campus: San Francisco State University." It's always good to be in the lead on the opposition front. 🦾

Overwhelmed & grateful for this recognition. And having it presented by my friend @malcomaxx.bsky.social made it that much sweeter. 🙏🏽💜.

Just appalling.

Dolores Huerta's statement on Cesar Chavez: “I am nearly 96 years old, and for the last 60 years have kept a secret because I believed that exposing the truth would hurt the farmworker movement I have spent my entire life fighting for... I can no longer stay silent and must share my own experiences"

ICYMI! CfP: A People’s History of Sport in Canada I'm co-editing a special issue in JCS. If you or someone you know is working on a project, we want to hear about it! Abstracts due: March 30 #cdnstudies #cdnhistory #etudescanadiennes utppublishing.com/journal/jcs/...

🔊🔊 🔊 Excited about this project. Please DM me with any questions.

Not loving the #Valkyries mascot reveal. How about a mascot with more powerful moves, and if you're gonna have instruction from a player as part of the performance, why not bring in women's hoops royalty???? Also, what's up w/ the skirt? Big miss from the marketing dept.

This is a dark stain on football, and will always be remembered as such. That UEFA nor FIFA did or said anything about the hundreds killed and complete anhialation of football in that region is deplorable.

I wrote about the WNBA and dildogate for Andscape: “By using the sex toy to make their point, the stunt becomes more than just an annoyance or a danger during play — it becomes a sexualized threat to the women on the court, an allusion to violence that can keep them in their place.”

"The WNBA and its players have reached a level of popularity usually reserved for male athletes and leagues, a level of popularity these man-babies can only dream of."

Thank you to the @sfchronicle.com for letting me report on the USOPC transfeminine athlete ban:

Funny how all that protect women’s sports energy went out the window as soon as WNBA players showed up with T-shirts bringing awareness to the lack of financial equity they have in their league.

This is footage from today in MacArthur Park. Minutes before, there were more than 20 kids playing — then, the MILITARY comes through. The SECOND I heard about this, I went to the park to speak to the person in charge to tell them it needed to end NOW. Absolutely outrageous.

Never before in the history of this nation has such a large redistribution of income been directed upward, for no reason at all

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Warnock: A budget is not just a fiscal document. A budget is a moral document. Show me your budget and I'll show you who you think matters and who doesn't. And if this awful budget were an EKG, it would suggest that our nation has a heart problem and is in need of moral surgery

Not that the NCAA had too many principles to begin with, but jeez it's shedding them quickly.

This is criminally inhumane.

Want to push back against the bigoted attacks targeting trans and gender-nonconforming people? Here are specific ways you can help—with your time, money, and everyday actions.

Justice Sotomayor's dissent in Skrmetti (which she's now reading from the bench) is deeply pained, accusing her colleagues of abandoning "transgender children and their families to political whims" and badly damaging "bedrock" principles of equal protection. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Scenes from Oakland #NoKings

AB Hernandez, the teen athlete targeted by Trump's anti-trans attacks: “I know how hard I've worked. That's what matters...Track is everything to me. It's an honor I’m a champion for something I love" Her mom Nereyda: “They try to intimidate ppl to quit, but I’m not scared of them" My interviews:

All airport gates should have cool exhibits like this by them. #NASSH2025 bound from SFO.

The NCAA had nothing to do with the start of women's sport history in the US. If anything it worked at every turn, for decades, to discourage and even eliminate opportunities for women's competitive athletics. If you want to know more about women's athletic leadership - check out the AIAW!

My latest piece @thenation.com PART II of a Series on Trans-Athletes, this one focusing on the trans-feminine athletes who have been the most demonized. They've been the focus of constant commentary while they themselves have been deliberately unheard. Hear them. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

One thing that really bugs me about so many of the anti-trans arguments about sports is that they'll be like, "Lia Thomas was a giant! Clearly she had an unfair advantage!" when the reality was just that she was pretty much the same size as other elite women swimmers.

Hi all, please consider giving to the CSSJ. I have been a member of this group for over 12 years. They do good work. givingday.csueastbay.edu/campaigns/ce...

Avery Brundage and his 1930s IOC Nazi counterparts sure would be a fan of this transphobic cruelty.

Once again, it was never about sports or protecting women. It was always about stripping away the rights, safety, respect, and recognition of trans people.

Sheer cruelty.

Another appalling & authoritarian move to erase history and attempt to control the present....

Cuts right through the lie (as we knew) about "protecting" women's sports...

Avery Brundage energy from the NFL - no surprise there - in response to Zül-Qarnaįn Nantambu's brave, conscientious protest during Kendrick's halftime performance.

"They are pieces of soggy Wonder bread, reduced to attacking brilliance because it exposes their mediocrity. It’s just stupid to think some addled 78-year-old misogynist caked in orange is the peak of masculinity."

Here's what the decision by America's favorite sports league tells us about "anticipatory obedience."

Shameful. Absolutely shameful.

#GivingTuesday is a great time to help support the Center for Sport and Social Justice at CSU East Bay, which aims to make a positive social impact through the world of sport. Donations will support students and youth in local East Bay communities.
