"Just Win, Baby"

 Al Davis was the general manager of the Oakland Raiders years ago when they were in their heyday. He is noted for the phrase, "Just win, baby," meaning it doesn't matter how. We're all familiar with this phrase today because we see it so often with societal change.

'The story has become all too familiar: A mediocre male athlete claims he is female, joins the women’s team and all of a sudden dominates his opponents.

That story is playing out once again, this time in Seattle, where runner Aspen Hoffman is breaking records on a high school cross country team.

Hoffman, a sophomore, ran on the school’s boys’ team in 2021, never cracking the top 50 in the 5,000 meters.

But this year, Hoffman announced that he is transgender and joined the girls’ team and suddenly he is at the top of the standings.

Hoffman went from 72nd place in the boys’ conference finals last year to first place in the girls’ competition this year. He then finished second at the district meet, helping his team qualify for the state championships.His best finish as a boy was 48th. https://www.westernjournal.com/male-got-trounced-boys-cross-country-team-switches-girls-team-smokes-competition/
