I posted a thread two years ago regarding The BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award and commented on how facile this show had become.
Well, the upshot is, the BBC has again proved how evermore woke it has become with another demonstration of conforming to 'diversity'.
Thankfully, I didn't watch this travesty of feigned congratulations. It had poor advertising ahead of it and I believe it's lost its popularity with the public.
Again, the winner, Mary Earps, following in the foosteps of the previous year's winner, Beth Meads, is part of a team and therefore should only be awarded in the separate team winners. Personally, I think women goalkeepers in general provide a great deal of entertainment with their attempts at saving goals.
Few individuals stand out in a team. It is, after all, teamwork that creates winners and rarely indiduals within the team themselves.
Manchester City were certainly deserving of the Team Award for their superb accomplishments. They KNOW HOW to win!
And again; the second place went to another cricketer, again, the second year running. For what? Winning the Ashes and the World Cup? I think not.
Third place went to, as far as I am concerned, the rightful winner: Katarina Johnson-Thompson.
Just check out what she has achieved in her sporting lifetime. Not many athletes come anywhere near close in their sporting records.
So, will another women's footballer win next year?
Will another cricketer come a close second.
Or, will another oustanding athlete be relegated to third place in three consecutive years?
It's like The House of Lords. It should be discontinued. But that's another matter.
