Jason Whitlock has never been shy about his feelings for former LSU forward Angel Reese, who was drafted by the Chicago Sky just last week. In short, he’s not a fan.
Reese teased Caitlin Clark, a white, straight woman, record-breaking superstar, and No. 1 WNBA draft pick. “Probably the most overrated athlete [his] lifetime,” Jason has a distaste for “Bayou Barbie.”
However, on Monday night, Reese posted a tweet that may make Jason re-evaluate the athlete.
The tweet comes days after Biden made amendments to Title IX regulations that provide additional protections for LGBTQ+ students, including a ban on discrimination based on “gender identity.” This reform will have a major impact on female athletes.
Not only was Reese “cool to lean into the feminine, sexy side of being an athlete,” Jason says, but he’s also probably becoming “baby Riley Gaines” now.
Delano Squires shares Jason’s opinion, but is far more skeptical.
“She stands 6 feet 4 inches tall with 10 toes down and says, ‘I’m a woman. I’m speaking up for women’s sports, and it’s the result.’ Are you ready?” he asks.
“Angel Reese isn’t going to back down here,” Jason asserted, adding, “She’s a legitimate influencer, and playing this feminine role will make her more relevant and earn her more money.” Probably,” he added.
But Squires doesn’t share Jason’s confidence in Bayou Barbie.
“I would definitely take the other side,” he says. The number of black people who endure “scorn, hatred, name-calling, missed opportunities…” and yet “actively stand in the public square in a position that culture completely opposes” is extremely small.
“[Reese] has a handler. She will have a publicist coming. She’s going to have a media coach…she’s going to take all the other women in the WNBA with her,” he said, adding that he believes it’s only a matter of time before she succumbs to the woke mob. revealed.
