The Pro Football Hall of Famer Brian Urlacher recently spoke against transient athletes in sports and repeated his attitude Wednesday.
Earlier this month, Urlacher appeared on the “Global View” podcast and wondered why it’s even a debate. Wednesday’s edition of “America is reporting,” he said it’s “common sense.”
“Athletic is just not fair. You know men are meant to play with men,” Urlacher said. “That’s why there are NBA and WNBA or LPGA and PGA Tour. They’re different. I just don’t understand how people think it’s ok for a man to join a woman’s sport.
“There are just as many biological differences. You have the guy who swam with the women there from Penn a few years ago with Riley Gaines and some of her teammates and you saw how he was with the men compared to the women. It’s just not fair. It’s pretty obvious to most people.”

Urlacher also questioned why other girls and women do not speak out, but pointed out that doing it has hurt them.
“You see these girls standing up and it really hurts themselves when they get up because they don’t compete because they don’t want to compete against a man. So they step down from their competitions,” he added.
“And it’s a bit of funny that comes from people pushing women’s rights and they will fight for women’s rights, but they won’t fight for women’s rights in sports. They want men to come in there and dominate the sport against women. It’s just common, it’s not fair. It’s common sense. I think we’ve seen President Trump talk about it.

“It’s just not fair. You know I saw a spor athlete in South Carolina a few years ago do the same, just winning any event. There are biological differences. Men don’t have to compete against women. It’s not fair. It’s dangerous. You saw the volleyball player, the man spiked the ball and hits the woman in the face.
“It’s … not fair and it can be really dangerous. It’s funny what Aaron [Rodgers] said. You can’t see women trying to compete against men in our sports. You can’t see them try playing football. You can’t see them try to do things that they wouldn’t be so good at or be able to hurt. “
Illinois, where Urlacher spent his NFL career, has become a fireplace for controversy over the issue of Trans Athlete League in recent days, after a biological man competed in a trace of the seventh grade meeting against biological women at Naper Prairie Conference Meet.

Several other states have defied President Donald Trump’s executive order on the issue, resulting in Maine temporarily losing federal funding.
