Andrea Armstrong in her Christian days

#2 Has she gone along with the Islamic opinions on women drivers as well?

I'd be curious how the Islamic clothes affect her game. Its very possible that she never would have made the team in the first place if she'd worn the clothes before she got the scholarship.

#4 Oh yeah. Good ol' USF, former stomping grounds of CAIR poster boy Professor Sami al-Arian.
Must be the water down there.

#6 Riddle me this-how does a person concentrate on her game when all the while in the back of her head she is wondering if too much of her forearm is showing. Some women are their own worst enemies.

#7 Better get all the men out of the bleachers and train some muttaween to ref the games while you're at it, Andrea...

#8  "She wanted to put her team first, after her faith, and she didn’t want to be the center of the controversy," he said.

Bullshit. If the team came first, Armstrong (or whatever her name is now) either wouldn't have brought it up in the first place, or simply quit outright without asking, to avoid the possibility of the issue being publicized. She did neither, which tells me that Mr Bedier is full of crap.

#10 Somebody ought to ask the Muslim chick if it has EVER dawned on ANY Muslim, ANY time, within the last 1400 years that perhaps, JUST perhaps, it's now time for Muslims to make an accomodation with Western Civilization?

#12 Another smart person surrenders their intellect and full potential in exchange for mere orderliness and formality masquerading as a religion.

Remember kids, even smart people if they are desparate enough will do any stupid thing that promises a quick fix to solve their problems.

Let me see, she probably admires islam because it has an answer for everything and a rule for everything that you do. I'll bet she also sees that the world would be a much better place if everybody just realized that we just need to surrender our liberty and then all the messiness of human life as we know it would just disappear.

Something like that. We'll never be rid of utopians nor crazy schemes and causes designed to make the world perfectly orderly but also stagnant and uncreative and obsessed with mass obdience over individual conscience and the death of art and the forcing underground of all kinds of nasty nasty criminal practices etc etc.

But hey at least on the surface everything in islamatopia will look great!
