SET FIVE – Enhanced Games: A Sporting Revolution or Dangerous Doping? | Full Documentary | BBC Sport https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kxtv9tT4ElE MY HOT TAKE – As some on Dr supervised TRT and Peptides I don’t see it as a big deal for Weekend Athletes and the older population.

SET FIFTEEN – U.S. Masters Swimming Updates Interim Eligibility Policy, Adds Men’s/Open Category https://swimswam.com/u-s-masters-swimming-updates-interim-eligibility-policy-adds-mens-open-category/ MY HOT TAKE – It’s Masters Swimming, It’s for fun. Let people swim no matter who they are in which ever category they want. This is weekend warrior shit stuff clutching your damn pearls and pretend to be offended by everything. If you don’t want Trans folks competing against you then don’t compete. Your beliefs don’t mean shit once you are swimming. Just swim or go home. We don’t need small minded bigots in the pool.

A Reminder My Hot Takes are my opinions and mine alone. They may change in five minutes or may never change. I’m just some key laying in bed, recovering from his morning workout posting this crap. If you don’t like me that’s fine but you know, watch your mouth.
