PORTLAND, OR - Immediately after losing a pickup basketball game at a park Friday, local liberal and unemployed man Rayne Wendell took to his iPhone in order to submit a piece to Slate.com in which he argues that the rules of basketball are "fundamentally flawed and unjust."

Slate quickly published the piece.

"The three-point rule seems particularly imbalanced toward people who are good at shooting the basketball from far away, while the rule that the team with the most points wins is systemic bias at its worst," he wrote. "Since the other team had more points, the outdated scoring system favored their winning." He was quick to point out that although the other team did score more points, his team took more shots, and so should have been awarded the victory.

He then argued that the rules of basketball need to be "constantly evolving," until they arrive at a place where he wins more often, and his opponents don't win as often.

"And can we talk about the problematic height bias?" he wrote in the 17th paragraph of the piece. "Why should an incredibly tall, skilled, athletic player's presence on the court count for at least two of me?"

Wendell concluded the piece by suggesting a radical new scoring system for basketball, where he walks on the court and is granted the win, no matter how well the other team plays.
