I don't think @CNN expected this.
Bob Costas on CNN’s The Story Is with Elex Michaelson backed the IOC’s ban on biological males in women’s Olympic events.
“Common sense is not transphobic,” he said, while stressing that transgender people deserve respect and dignity.
His key points:
-No trans man has ever successfully competed against men at the Olympics.
-If Caitlin Clark made the NBA, it would be celebrated.
-If a bench NBA player dominated the WNBA, “everybody would know that is BS.”
Title IX was progressive for a reason — women’s sports categories exist to keep competition fair.
@usabasketball@Google Another woke example of not selecting based on talent and teamwork. There are far more talented players than Angel Reese. I wish the team well but will not be watching the optics over talent team
@FIBAWWC@FIBA@usabasketball There are far more talented players than Angel Reese. I wish the team all the best. However, I will not be watching to what amounts to another woke program unrelated to talent and teamwork.
It amuses me that when I hear “coming to Sophie’s defense”. Sophie is an intelligent, independent and strong individual and does not n ed anyone coming to her defense. You may agree or disagree with her beliefs and that’s ok. @sophaller thank you for standing strong! God Bless
@POTUS Mr President I urge you to direct all Federal agencies to immediately and without delay extinguish all lightening & wildfires the moment identified. Stop putting lives and property at risk for agency reviews for resource management resulting in out of control fires
@FoxNews Cancel the WNBA and women can try out for the NBA and be fully inclusive. Let’s see how many women can make and stay on teams over full seasons competing as one profession.
I cannot understand why of all people female WNBA coaches advocate for trans players in their league. I know they categorize the WNBA as sports entertainment and no longer a sport similar to the NBA and NFL which is no longer about competition but woke agendas. A shame really
@WNBA no doubt swept the betting on games the league posted involving Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers under the carpet as a non event. While giving technicals to other players for speaking to an official or other player. The only standard I have seen is go woke or be penalized
