Simone Biles spars with Riley Gaines on social media over trans athlete debate

Simone Biles took offense to OutKick contributor Riley Gaines calling out a Minnesota high school whose softball team won a state championship Friday with a transgender pitcher.

Marissa Rothenberger, a transgender athlete, tossed a shutout to continue a dominant postseason and give Champlin Park High School a state championship.

The Minnesota State High School League posted a photo of the team on social media after the game, and Gaines noted the comments on X were turned off.

“To be expected when your star player is a boy,” Gaines wrote.

Biles, a seven-time Olympic gold medalist, saw the post and told Gaines she was “truly sick.”

“All of this campaigning because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser,” Biles wrote to Gaines, who competed against trans swimmer Lia Thomas in 2022.

“You should be uplifting the trans community and perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive OR creating a new avenue where trans feel safe in sports. Maybe a transgender category IN ALL sports!! But instead… You bully them… One things for sure is no one in sports is safe with you around!!!!!”

In another post, Biles added, “bully someone your own size, which would ironically be a male.”

“This is actually so disappointing. It’s not my job or the job of any woman to figure out how to include men in our spaces. You can uplift men stealing championships in women’s sports with YOUR platform. Men don’t belong in women’s sports and I say that with my full chest,” Gaines responded.

One can’t help notice that there are transatjletes in gymnastics, because men can’t move like women.

Simone doesn’t appear too bright. Why jump from the sidelines, and involve yourself into a controversial battle, armed only with ‘feelings’ and personal insults.
Go home, Simone and have your maids re-polish some of those Participation Trophies you have on display.
Meanwhile, learn about your topic, before jumping into the deep water, vs an experienced public speaker like Riley Gaines.

Oh good lord. Participation trophies?

Disagree if you disagree, but that’s just stupid.

In my prep school I and a couple of pals didn't go for baseball in our senior year, and the school had a mandatory one sport per year rule (I was just trying to ride out my senior year). Anyway, they dumped all the recusants into a co-ed softball team, a bunch of people who didn't want to be there. Half of them girls, some of them stoners.

The competitive Girls' Softball team bragged they would beat us in a matchup. So a scrimmage was set up. Quote from the team captain after their blow-out loss, "We would have won, but you kept hitting the ball over our heads". (I was good for a couple of doubles down the left field foul line, and I was NOT a great athlete.)

Ms. Biles might have taken offense, but she didn’t address the issue.

The truth of the matter sailed right over their heads, just like those Homers!

Believing that man can create a whole new sex from what God created is not only obsurd, it’s purely insane ,, there is no virtue in the his scam.

Any Mother of a Teen in sports knows exactly what is wrong with this.

Why do the Dems and Media keep pushing this crap. Answer, they are Woke and stuck in it.

I just learned that girls soccer gets loads of ACL injuries and that girls Lacrosse is even worse. Due to boys/men’s knees being built better for quick pivoting. (while hunting and in battle?)
