If Travis had any balls he'd make the offer for a randomly drawn high school 4A team. Yeah no shite the IMG academy of future pro basketball players will beat a WNBA team.



This is my point. If he can pick any team he'd want there is no point to this. Now a random team? More interesting.

Anyone with an ounce of honesty knows an elite boys team would win easily, so I'm not sure what point Clay is trying to prove if he gets to pick

He's creating a strawman argument that idiots will look at and be like "He's so right!" lol he would be if there was some WNBA player claiming the opposite, but noone is. He's making an argument against himself apparently.

I bet $10 million i can pick a womens golfer who can beat Trump in golf, look how smart I am!

The backlash any high school, coach, and admin would get over agreeing to this would be roaring, so no one will agree.


Let your HS play one game and pay all the teachers a $20K bonus that year?

Travis: I'll pay these women to play men in sports!

I'm assuming he's trying to tie it in to the trans in sports argument, but it won't impact the people that disagree with him. It's not that they think women can beat men, they just refuse to accept that trans women ARE men. This wouldn't convince them of anything.

I think a way cooler and funnier game would be retired men's players 50+. Can't be stars, only journeyman. Before anyone asks, Brian Scalabrine is unfortunately only 48.

Right

He should get a squad of trans women together to play against a WNBA team.

Shouldn’t be too hard to find since this is such a major and common issue.

That isn't a competition. You'd have to go down to maybe a team of freshman high schoolers to even have a chance at the girls winning.

IMG doesn’t play in state playoffs right? So they wouldn’t qualify as a state champion to choose from.

Besides, Clay Travis isn’t dump, he would choose an “average” state champion to make it look worse.

You’re crazy if you think he couldn’t get a high school team to take that money. The dykes will never agree to it
