If only I were kidding:

12-year-old Jaime Nared was barred by The Hoop [a private Beaverton basketball/sports facility] from playing basketball with the boys team that she had played with since second grade.

The Hoop's decision was prompted by the parents of opposing teams shortly after Jaime embarrassed an opposing team by putting up 30 points. The complaining parents' stated concern was that their sons were not playing as well because they had been taught not to be rough with girls.

There are so many things wrong with this I don't know where to start! How rough can 12-year-olds possibly get on a basketball court? Read the article here or a slightly awkward news video here.
