Words of Wisdumb - Lesbian Ball Player at Penn State
A lesbian basketball player claimed she was discriminated against based on her sexual orientation by the coach of the Penn State Lady Lions.

She took the basketball program and athletic department to court.

In the end...the two sides settled....confidentially.  What that means is the woman got some money so both sides could get on with their life.

"I'm proud to have brought this case, and I'm thrilled that we have been able to resolve it," were the words of wisdumb by the lesbian ballplayer.

I give up - what was the resolution?

The Penn State side said, "In agreeing to settle the case, the defendants continued to dispute the player's claims and did not admit liability."bball.jpg
 
Again - what is the resolution?

It seems to me that Penn State was able to realize that it was better to give the girl some money than to keep paying the lawyers.

The National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR) and their co-counsel agreed.

If a party is right...there is no need to settle.

what do you think?
