Women. Religion’s longestrunning victims.

[Esquilax]

Players submit to their coaches, but only in matters of whatever sport they are playing, since the role of the coach is to improve their abilities at said sport. They don't submit to their coaches in life, which is what the bible passages I quoted earlier were saying women should do to their husbands.

I think you're being overly generous and letting slide a huge equivocation, here. Players don't "submit" to their coaches at all, they accept the guidance and training of a person appointed to a position based on demonstrable skill and merit, and moreover this is something they can opt out of, and that the coach can be fired from if they abuse their position or ultimately lack the skill to coach effectively.

At no point are coaches given assumed and unquestioned power over players based on physical attributes beyond their control rather than merit, nor are players given assumed less power due to the same. The people who make that comparison are simply talking nonsense and hoping nobody notices just how inappropriate it is.
