As for Smith’s politics, the ESPN personality made his position clear on the subject of trans -inclusion in girls and women’s sports during an interview with Bloomberg on Radio Row in New Orleans before Super Bowl Lix.
This came shortly after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to prohibit transgender athletes against women and girls in school sports competitions.
