If we’re gonna talk about aesthetics, maybe pick an easier to read font. Jokes aside, this is more than a visual problem. Players have gotten seriously injured in San Diego. Weather and too many tenants should have been taken into consideration when it was being built. – at Queens, NY

So much misinformation here. Let's clear a few things up: This "stat" isn't from an independent UN study. It's from a website where people can submit grievances against athletes they believe are trans. The result? A database of grievances over local disc golf tourneys.

Crazy discussion in the House of Lords around women’s sport. @Baronessjenkin highlighted a UN study published in August calculated: "By March this year over 600 female athletes in more than 400 events were defeated by trans-identifying males who took a total of 890 medals."

The "stat" -- which again, is mostly grievances over local disc golf tourneys -- was submitted to the UN, and the UN special rapporteur added it to a report... with zero context. That's really (really!) different than the UN doing a study on a topic.

I cannot emphasize enough how much of this database is dedicated to disc golf.

Speaking of factchecking dog birthdays ... Now I can't stop thinking about the time Ryan Lochte wished his dog a happy 8th birthday ... three years in a row.

Let it be known that I did research to confirm that, yes, Wilma was indeed born before Rose Lavelle's first USWNT cap.

I had some thoughts following the letter co-signed by women's players to FIFA objecting Saudi Aramco's partnership and sponsorship of the game. My latest for @cbcsports cbc.ca/sports/shireen-ahmed-…

Putting aside the (reliably!) strange AF photos, I truly want to know why Ballon d'Or includes each player's age -- but not their nationality or position -- on these graphics.
