Guerrero wears Marie-Philip Poulin jersey to Game 7 The Toronto Blue Jays slugger paid tribute to the Canadian hockey legend in the tunnel before Game 7.

Thought this was a cool representation of our week 6 topic of gender and sexuality. Vladdy is promoting women’s sport knowing he was going to be heavily photographed, repping another Canadian jersey!

Blue Jays leave door open for Bichette to play shortstop, second base or DH Bo Bichette's status remains up in the air heading into Game 1 of the World Series on Friday against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Should Bichette be playing in the World Series? Although he is hurt is it in the teams best interest for him to play or should he consider his health instead? I think he should play because this is such an amazing, rare opportunity. @kin110uofr.bsky.social

Storm's Bird (broken nose) will play in Game 5 Storm point guard Sue Bird will play in Tuesday's deciding Game 5 of their semifinal series against the Mercury with a face mask to protect the broken nose she suffered during the second quarter of Su...

Sue Bird played many games with a broken nose; this is a repeated injury showing she is disrespecting and depersonalizing her pain. This also implies that she doesn’t want to show weakness and disproving that she’s not a “suitable athlete”

Should athletes be able to participate while injured? Yes and no. In this era of sport, safety is a must. Although, I believe participation in out of competition events they can and should participate to the best of their ability.

An example of alienation to one’s body is Matthew Tkachuk playing, finishing and winning the Stanley Cup finals this previous season with a torn adductor muscle from the bone and a sports hernia. He scored the cup winning goal in game 6.

@kin110uofr.bsky.social Health and sport. The NHL and hockey culture in general has had a long history of overlooking and ignoring injuries. Often being proudly refered to as a 'mans sport' it is not uncommon for hockey players at any level to downplay or even ignore both minor and major injuries.
