BIKE STAND
Re “Female cyclist defends decision not to take podium with transgender winner” (Dan Bilicki, Jul 8): It is truly appalling that this would be allowed in professional women’s sports. I am so proud of cyclist Julie Peterson for standing her ground on this terrible woke ideology. When do we draw the line on this apparent nonsense? It truly tells me that anything goes, including this ridiculous notion that men are allowed to compete in women’s sports. Perhaps there should be a separate transgender category in sports? Just saying.

NO SURPRISES
Some things are complete surprises. But here are a few that aren’t — this morning the sun rose in the east and then set in the west; U.S. President Donald Trump created and then rescinded additional tariffs; CBC allegedly “sidelined, retaliated against” and denied “editorial access and institutional support” to broadcaster and host Travis Dhanraj due to his alleged conservative diversity.

STRIKEOUT
Major League Baseball is to try out its robotic umpire calling strikes and balls. Hmmm??? Perhaps major league all-stars should send up a “robot hitter.” Yes, my house robot wrote this.
