ESPN's college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit explained to OutKick's Dan Dakich why he decided to weigh in on transgender inclusion in women's sports.
ESPN star Kirk Herbstreit weighed in on the debate over transgender athletes playing women’s sports last week when he was asked on social media, 'Do men belong in women’s sports?' Herbstreit made his stance clear, 'Of course not.' He explained on Tuesday in an interview on OutKick’s 'Don’t @ Me with Dan Dakich' that he didn’t give a s---' about what the reaction was going to be.
’m done giving any s---s at all about any of it. It’s almost like there are two different sets of rules, and if you have a view that’s a little more traditional, or I’m a Christian guy, it’s like there is a different set of rules for that viewpoint,' he explained. 'It’s hard to just turn the other cheek time after time after time. 'So, yeah, I didn’t really care, and I don’t care at all.
think I have been biting my tongue on a lot of topics for three years. I sent a tweet out – I get pretty quiet in the offseason – I sent a tweet out about something. It might have been about college football coming up, and I’ve gotten into a habit of not scrolling and looking at the comments because it’s obviously pretty bad. I happened to see somebody say what he said.
But yeah, man, Lee Corso used to give a speech, and one of the things he would say within that speech was, ‘Don’t ask me about race, religion or politics, or don’t talk publicly about race, religion or politics,’ and now I think that’s all anybody talks about is race religion and politics. … I try to stay on the sidelines for a lot of that, but you can only take so much until you want to start to speak up a little bit and actually say what you think.
