Riley Gaines just dropped the perfect response to Clay Travis’s latest reality check for the WNBA.
Clay Travis isn’t joking.
He’s offered to buy a WNBA expansion franchise, put it in Nashville, name it the Nashville Balls, and stock it with a 100% “trans” roster (biological males who identify as women) plus a matching coaching staff. Most inclusive team in league history, by the league’s own standards.
On top of that, he upped his challenge to $10 million: the defending champion Las Vegas Aces vs. a boys’ high school state title team of his choice. Winner takes the $10M. Game on pay-per-view, all profits to Tunnel to Towers for mortgage-free homes for families of fallen soldiers, police, and first responders.
Riley’s take is sharp: if the WNBA’s stated goal is maximum inclusivity (and the big payday), this is the opportunity of a lifetime. Decline it, and by their own rules they’re the bigoted ones.
He’s already shown he’ll put real money behind it — he and his wife just committed $10M to Vanderbilt Law School. The Balls merch is writing itself.
What say you, WNBA?
🚨 NEW: JD Vance SCOLDS Fox’s Jessica Tarlov after she claims “when your party is out of power, you have less pride in the country” as NEW POLL finds just 29% of Dems are proud to be American, while 90% of Republicans are "very or extremely proud.”
VANCE: “Jessica, I don’t think that’s right. Why does that need to be true that if your party is out of power, you should have less pride in your country?”
“I guarantee that when Barack Obama was president or Joe Biden was pretending to be president, that you had Republicans who still said they're proud of America. They're proud of our military, our great people, and natural beauty.”
"What I find bizarre about this is we have allowed a culture to develop where people feel like the country is the country’s politics. I wish Democrats were proud of our country, we should all be proud.”
