‘He still lives with his mom in her basement’

Riley Gaines has amassed a following since becoming the face of the fight against biological males in women’s and women’s sports.

Of course, there are many criticisms of this as well.

One of her biggest names is Keith Olbermann, with whom Gaines had a verbal war on X (formerly Twitter) a few months ago.

Olbermann said the “stupid” and “failed” Gaines, who holds 12 national championships and SEC records, is “a big fan of swimming.”

But the problems didn’t stop there, as Olbermann called her a “transphone” who “doesn’t have a reputation to destroy.”

In a video in response to Olbermann’s post, she can be seen showing off her numerous trophies, including first team All-SEC, three SEC titles, second nationally, SEC Community Service Award, and SEC Women Scholar. I recorded the appearance. -Athlete of the Year, etc.

She also qualified for the U.S. Olympic trials in Tokyo.

Gaines hopped on Joe Rogan’s podcast this week, and the two revisited the exchange between her and the former ESPN and MSNBC host.

“I am extremely proud to have finished my career as a 12-time All-American, 5-time SEC Champion, SEC record holder, SEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year, and SEC Community Service Leader of the Year. can go on. Does this old man want to attack me? He still lives in the basement with his mother. I asked my father, “Who is this person?” I had to. I don’t even know who he is,” Gaines said.

Gaines actually broke the glass trophy in the video, but she said the SEC sent her a new trophy.

“They’re like, ‘We’re really sorry you had to waste your time against Keith Olbermann and destroy your trophy. We wanted to send you a new trophy,'” she said. “I got more anyway. Thank you, Keith Olbermann.”

“My motto, and I feel like I live by this most of the time, is ‘don’t roll with the punches.’ I don’t want anyone to be careful if it’s obviously something they’re fighting over.” Don’t point at it,” Gaines said. “But when it came to him, I literally couldn’t resist.”

Gaines decided to become an advocate for fairness in women’s sports shortly after competing against Thomas at the 2022 National Championship.
