ESPN fires Sam Ponder, who spoke up about trans inclusion in women's sports, and analyst Robert Griffin III

ESPN fired Samantha Ponder and Robert Griffin III on Thursday.

Good riddance to the transphobes.

The decision to fire Ponder sparked most of the outrage on social media. Riley Gaines, the host of OutKick’s "Gaines for Girls" podcast, and former ESPN anchor Sage Steele were among those to defend Ponder.

Of course Riley Gaines has something to say about this...

 

Quote

A source familiar with Ponder and Griffin’s firings told Fox News Digital they were business decisions. Griffin was off of "Monday Night Countdown" in favor of the network's new hire, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, and was still going to receive his full salary for a low-profile college football show. Ponder’s lone show was "Sunday NFL Countdown."

The real reason is those 2 are transphobes. This is just being said to keep the likes of Riley Gaines from harassing them (ESPN).

It's only Ponder who is transphobic, so good riddance to that c**t.

Oh, sorry about that. Yeah, they're both shady as f**k. My mistake.
