What on earth did Caitlyn Jenner do to deserve an ESPY award? ESPY stands for Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly. Is changing your sex considered a sports activity? Has the world gone MAD? It was gratifying to see the world champion US women’s soccer team onstage getting the attention they deserve. Apparently the ESPY producers feared the show would lack universal appeal or whatever, so they hauled in someone sure to attract curiosity (Jenner) followed by the sexy Kardashian/Jenner girls. (Above.) Remember, Jenner recently killed a woman and injured others due to inattentive driving. You’d think she’d want to keep a low profile. Jenner gave a nice speech but the honorable thing to do would have been to TURN DOWN the inappropriate award altogether.

  1. What does cancer, or Parkinsons, or being imprisoned in Africa for 30 years, or AIDS (which is what the award’s namesake Arthur Ashe had) have to do with sports? Look back at previous honorees, most of whom were sports figures bravely facing a struggle of some kind… the amount of hate being directed at this particular one is really sad. She was once the world’s greatest athlete. That counts.

  2. He is not a she. Do not praise this freak show for being anything but weird!

  3. I have to agree Janet. I didn’t understand why he/she received the award either. And I think her comment about picking out a dress for the show being the hardest part took away from the transgenders’ plight. Just my opinion

  4. It has to do with the courage to be authentic as a public figure.

  5. Everything i read and heard says Bruce Jenner has had NO gender reassignment surgery. so why do you keep referring to it, like he did?
    Adams Apple shaving, botox, slight facial feminization surgery and hormones only, does not make him a her!

  6. Janet, I have enjoyed reading your columns and website for many years. It has been highly entertaining and I have mostly agreed with your opinion on the stories you’ve chosen to write about. However, more and more your posts are showing your age and bringing the dredge out of the woodwork in your commentors. What will be next? Denouncing climate change? Voting for Donald Trump? Times are changing doll, take a look at the calender!

  7. Not really, Jan. There is nothing to praise about a middle age man who dresses like a woman and tries to convince others he has really been a she all along. Oddball, weirdo, pervert or whatever you want to call Bruce…not some idol to praise.

    How many cases of AIDS and deaths have been caused by gays and trannys that were trying to be women?

  8. For the life of me I don’t get how he/she can carry on their life flaunting it so soon and flamboyantly after causing the death of someone as if their life (the deceased) meant nothing. Jenner has become such an insensitive, calculating, narcissistic fame hoar.

  9. HE IS NOTHING BUT A MAN IN A DRESS AND ALWAYS WILL BE NO MATTER WHAT ALL THE DO GOODERS SAY

  10. The people posting on this website are 95% horrible. A bit like Janet and her writers. If you don’t like it switch off. A bit like I am with this website.

  11. FYI even if Bruce loped off his weewee and made it into a vajay-jay HE WOULD STILL BE A HE.

    100 years from now if Bruce’s remains were unearthed and they did a DNA analysis they would say a 6’5″ caucasian male. That’s because BRUCE WAS BORN WITH a XY gene….

    put pig on a lipstick you still have a pig.

  12. That’s Bruce’s next step!

  13. Isn’t the gossip that Caitlyn won the award as part of a package deal when she agreed to the interview with Diane Sawyer?

  14. “Has the world gone MAD?”

    Do you REALLY need to ask that question?

    The fact that you’re NOT asking BECAUSE of the gender reassignment says it all..

  15. Why are people arguing so vehemently against seeing Caitlin as a woman? What is this sacred experience you are protecting? Why are you so invested in denying a human being to define herself? DNA, biology are not more important than love and acceptance. Let your small minds relax a little. Really, why do you care what she says and does?

  16. The ESPYS were just doing what Janet has been doing for years… jumping on the fame train and exploiting the murders of Nicole and Ron for attention and $

  17. Nicole was divorced…Ron was single. They were in love. What’s wrong with that?

  18. This person is not deserving of this award. Lauren Hill should have won this award. Although she was dying from cancer she bravely kept on to get funding for the disease and scholarships for deserving students. Never once did she complain about her situation and asked why her. And then this person changed his sex and they jettisoned Lauren to get more ratings. Shame on ESPN and I hope Arthur’s family remove his name from this sham.
