I see what you did there AO. Putting the word softball in all caps. The subtle misogyny. Well played

Hi, Livvy and whatever different name you choose for your next post as well as your third name for the post after that,

I think most readers would infer that I referred to SOFTBALL as a low revenue sport with limited NIL potential and no professional prospects. That is, a sport in which a Top 20 team could not simply buy a promising Ivy player with a big offer from the school collective.

But you chose to read SOFTBALL as misogynistic in intent. I think you owe me the courtesy of an explication. If you're going to impugn somebody's motives, explaining your train of thought is in order.
