This is why I won't upgrade to a premium account here. I end up reading these new comments in threads I have posted in when I haven't logged in for a few weeks.

If a girl became world champion at least we would get rid of some of the idiotic, sexist remarks. Not all of them, I'm sure.

Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
