Megyn Kelly went after a sports columnist whom she referred to as a “national disgrace” during her SiriusXM show on Monday over the writer’s support for a women’s college basketball coach who came out in support of biological men playing in the league.
Kelly singled out Nancy Armour after the columnist called South Carolina Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley a “goddamn national treasure” for supporting transgender basketball players.
“If you consider yourself a woman and you want to play sports or vice versa, you should be able to play,” Staley said in a pause-filled response to a question about whether she supported biological males playing against females in sports. “That’s my opinion.”
That infuriated Kelly, who has become an advocate of keeping biological men out of women’s sports and vice versa.
“There’s this columnist over at USA Today, sports, Nancy Armour, who’s a repeat violator of women’s rights,” Kelly began.
“You’re a goddamn national disgrace, Madam, because you have a pen in a very large newspaper, dwindling though by the day, and you too could stand up for women, but you’re too cowardly to do it. And you know why? You’re not a mother. You don’t have to worry about your daughter having to face some six-foot-four man out on the basketball court like I do. So I don’t want to hear from you,” Kelly continued.
“Nancy Armour’s bio, she calls herself a proud aunt of three boys – she doesn’t even have nieces – and she says, ‘I don’t have all the answers, but I’m always looking for more of them.’ I’ve got one for you, Nancy. Shut the f**k up until you know what you’re talking about because girls are getting hurt by male basketball players posing as girls,” Kelly went on.
The host then queued up a video of a local high school girl’s basketball game featuring a tall biological male who injured an opposing female player by taking the ball away from her.
“I take you out to Massachusetts, where Lowell was playing in a game, the Lowell school was playing in a game, and they had to call it at the half because three players got hurt. Look at this girl in the black shirt go down. That’s a man pretending to be a girl who took the ball from her. Look at her. You watch this, Nancy, Dawn! You two watch this! Look at her writhing in pain after she was injured by a boy pretending to be a girl,” Kelly said.
She concluded: “I’m so sick of these women who are so terrified of the woke mob.”
WNBA loses money every single year. It is subsidized by the success of the NBA.
At least women’s tennis is enjoyable and successful.
They take prize money out of men’s mouths for women’s tennis.
It might be self-sufficient but that’s not stopping them from subsidizing it from the men.
The WNBA has dodged the trans bullet long enough.
It’s time for a nothing but a men’s WNBA team.
How does the bird cage liner usatoday even survive? They must be subsidized like amtrak. What a horrible paper.
The women shouldn’t get “equal pay” in tennis.
The men bring in more money, and Grand Slams are best of five for men.
We’ll see if the WTA stands on actual women playing.
Tennis and F1 are the only two things I ever watch anymore.
I assume it will be nothing soon enough.
Some dude from the hood is going to pretend to be a chick and score 120 points in a game.
Just wait, it's bound to happen and liberals are too stupid to use a little bit of common sense.
For a popular figure, there is no risk supporting the far left position. To oppose it could destroy your career.
Kelly has been fire on this ever since she took the red pill.
Has Martina Navratilova been doing any tennis color commentary in the trans era? She came out pretty strongly against mentally ill men playing in women’s tennis. I don’t think she used those words, but that’s what we’re dealing with.
And women’s golf is profitable for everyone too. Everyone knows women’s basketball is pretty dang boring.
I never watched women’s basketball or golf. To be fair, I don’t watch men’s golf.
I mainly don’t like when they attempt to say they’re near equal. It’s ridiculous.
Even the manbeast Serena Williams admitted some dude, not in the top 100, would beat her 6-0, 6-0.
It’s what bothered me about the Iowa chick and people saying she passed Pistol Pete’s NCAA record. It’s garbage.
It’s not Clark’s fault what tv babbles about though.
Just leave them as distinct and don’t equate.
We’re being played. Let the women fight it out. They’re the ones affected. Do you think the coach really believes what she said?
I’m fine with all professional sports disappearing. Maybe people could stay sober and be involved in the important aspects of society.
I remember Staley from back in the day. (Both Philly people)
She’s probably just saying what “she’s supposed to”.
Now they are finding out the hormones are causing permanent damage.
As an aside, I got cut from my HS team and played CYO ball.
One night I was playing at the Y, and wound up having to guard a two time NCAA women’s champion. Best player on the team.
I couldn’t believe how bad she was compared to me.
You must understand that life is one big interruption. Everybody’s got to get in the way of someone else’s flow. Just look at all the pop up ads that don’t let you enjoy what you’re reading on the internet. At least we don’t get it here, at least for now.
They’ll get there. Probably require at least two female players on the court at all times.
“I’m fine with all professional sports disappearing. Maybe people could stay sober and be involved in the important aspects of society.”
That’s the best idea I’ve heard in a long time.
Renee Richard’s wasn’t good enough to win on the women’s tour.
I want to see Dawn Staley then recruit all starters for her team Trans-Women and make history by winning every game they play and a National Championship, then lets see what all these people say about that as far as women’s sports.
