However, social media platform X was rife with outrage about the host’s abrupt firing. Some noted that Ponder was the only female at the network speaking out about the vital gender issue, specifically when it comes to sports. It was also highlighted that former ESPN personality Sage Steele was similarly fired after she voiced some conservative opinions.

“So ESPN fires [Sam Ponder], the only woman at the network who [has] publicly said men don’t belong in women’s sports,” Riley Gaines posted. “Three weeks before football season? Sam is one of the most beautiful, genuine women I’ve ever met along with [former ESPN host Sage Steele] who had a similar fate….not a coincidence.”

Some other network such as Fox Sports should hire her ASAP.

Walt Disney Company and ESPN.

Pro homo-deranged outfits deserving of being shunned!

Sports media is left of the media in general. Keith Olbermann is not out of the ordinary for sports media.

She’s going to also receive an IRS audit and visit from the FBI.

ESPN, like the NFL, has gone WOKE and DEI.
STOP WATCHING THEM AND BUYING EXPENSIVE TICKETS
to their stupid athletic events. DITTO the Olympics. They no longer represent you or your values UNLESS you are a hate consumed minority racist, a sexual freak, or a anti-American
or anti-western malcontent or some combination of the aforesaid. Too many of their “stars” are ignorant, over- compensated, violent, arrogant, misogynistic street thugs.
Colon Klapperdick is their poster boy.

Looks conservative from the get go, went to Liberty University. Married 12 years, she has 3 kids.

Downside for her, she’s not a black, lesbian drug addict, if she were she’d probably still have a job.

“The Walt Disney Company, claimed they fired Ponder, along with Robert Griffin III, due to “financial reasons”

Really? were guaranteed money automatic contract extensions going to kick in? Doubt it, so the Disney kiddie diddlers fired Griffin, while honored the two remaining years of his contract, were is the savings? And someone else in all probability will be hired to take his place. Once again were is the financial savings? I imagine the same scenario with Sam Ponders.

ESPN is behind the NIL madness, which is killing “ college “ sports.

There’ll be a place for her on FNC and the right-wing independents.

A woman who wants women in sports to be women and not men... How shameful.
