An unfiltered Gilbert Arenas is not everyone’s cup of tea. And his latest video on ‘No Chill Gil’ is likely to spark a controversy in the sports community. The ex-Washington Wizard has spoken his mind on Caitlyn Jenner’s (fka Bruce Jenner) upcoming podcast show ‘Keeping Up with Sports’.
“Caitlyn Jenner, another person that’s jumping into sports game that have nothing to do with sports. This motherf**ker done played a couple rounds of women golf and now she thinks she can go in and talk sports,” stated Arenas in his video. He further mentioned that Jenner has no sports accolades but still wants to talk sports.
Meanwhile, one user asked Jenner’s credentials for a sports podcast through a super-chat to Gil. “Nothing. They just get to get a podcast and say I’m gonna talk sports and then go out here. We supposed to take the word for it?,” he replied. Though one user highlighted that Caitlyn has got a gold medal, Gilbert Arenas dismissed this achievement stating it was Bruce Jenner who won the gold medal and not Caitlyn. Notably, Caitlyn Jenner won a gold medal in men’s decathlon at the Olympic Games Montreal 1976 as Bruce Jenner before they underwent gender-affirming surgery.

“Hey, she wanna be treated like a woman. This woman ain’t won nothing… Bruce Jenner is the sports legend gold medallist out here… I’m treating you just like who you say you are which means you don’t have no credentials,” said Gilbert Arenas. He further re-established that Caitlyn has no credentials to talk about sports and that it would have been fine if they speak on something like ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ but not ‘Keeping Up with Sports’.
