I’ve been a Kansas City Chiefs fan since long before the confetti ever fell in 2019. I watched heartbreak after heartbreak, especially in 1996 with the kicker who shall not be named —seasons full of promise that somehow never quite made it to the promised land. Then came Patrick Mahomes — with coach Andy Reid and stars like Travis Kelce and the Ambassador of Sack Nation, Chris Jones. Three Super Bowl wins later, the Chiefs are the best team in football. Period. And that didn’t happen by chance — it happened because of raw talent, relentless training, and yes, a level playing field where greatness could shine.
So when Randi Mahomes, Patrick’s mom and President Trump supporter, spoke out this week on "MOMetize Your Passion" about the need to protect girls’ and women’s sports from unfair competition, I listened. Not just because she raised a football phenom, but because she said what millions of Americans are thinking: This isn’t about hate—it’s about fairness.
Randi Mahomes talks sports and her kids
“I love all people,” she said. “But there has to be fair. DNA and physicality—there is a difference.”
Bingo.
We’re living in a time where saying something that basic—obvious, even—is somehow controversial. But Randi cut through the noise with the clarity of a mom who’s seen competition at the highest level and understands what happens when the rules are bent for political convenience.
Let me be blunt: When biological males are allowed to compete against girls and women, it's not inclusion—it’s a hostile takeover of decades of hard-fought progress in women’s sports. It’s not leveling the playing field; it’s rigging it. And that’s not just unfair—it’s un-American.
Look, I’m a conservative. I believe in freedom, respect, and personal responsibility. I also believe in biology. Bone density, muscle mass, lung capacity — these are not social constructs, they’re measurable advantages. And they matter, whether you’re running sprints or swimming laps.
I don’t say this to diminish anyone’s identity or "lived experience." But if we really care about everyone’s dignity, then we need separate lanes for competition — not one-size-fits-all policies that flatten fairness in the name of feelings.
Randi’s message mirrors what everyday Americans are feeling: Enough already. Girls train their entire lives to stand on a podium, only to be edged out by someone with a natural physical edge? That’s not equity. That’s erasure.
And here’s the kicker—this isn’t just a culture war talking point anymore. This is happening in high schools and college gyms across the country. Real girls are losing scholarships, medals, and motivation, and also risking serious injuries like what happened to Payton McNabb. That should shake every parent to the core.

So I say this as a Chiefs fan, a citizen, and someone who believes that truth still matters: Randi Mahomes didn’t just defend sports—she defended sanity. And we should all follow her lead.
If we can demand fairness in the NFL, we can demand it in the NCAA and in every locker room across this country. Because what’s at stake here isn’t just a gold medal—it’s the principle that hard work should be rewarded, not rewritten.
Let girls compete. Let women win. And let common sense finally take the field again.
