Hey if men can participate in women’s sports because they feel like women then why not? Maybe she identifies as a 13 year old girl.

"A 39-year-old convicted felon was arrested Thursday after allegedly punching three female athletes during a girls’ basketball game in Corina, California, and threatening students with a gun, police said.

The incident was reported around 8:35 p.m. Jan. 24, after a fight broke out during a basketball game between Centennial High School and Santiago High School.

Witnesses told police that two students from both teams were involved in a fight on the court. Video obtained by Nexstar’s KTLA shows the man — said to be a player’s stepfather — leaping into the fray and throwing punches.:

OK. What did I just see there?

1) A cheerleader was too far into the sideline area, looking at the crowd, and may have accidentally made contract with her foot during a cheer to an opposing team player as he was passing the ball in bounds. She did not see him as he went to that side of the basket to throw the ball in. That player, also, made no indication of it and it did not affect the pass in at all.

2) Next time down the court on that end of the court, on a dead ball, the cheerleader went out to that opposing player (who was not involved with the foul) who was fairly close by, and just tapped him on the arm, "probably" to apologize.

3) The opposing team's coach, on the other end of the court, apparently went nuts (based on the announcers) that an opposing team's cheerleader came out on the court, touch and/or said something to his player. Never saw the opposing team player act unusual, mad, or upset.

I get it that she should not have come on the court, but I also did see anything, even by the opposing player, that something was done wrongly to him.
