Ex-NFL kicker calls out Simone Biles over personal attack on Riley Gaines

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Jay Feely, a former NFL kicker who is running for Congress in Arizona, made his stance on men in women’s sports known as he weighed in on the Simone Biles-Riley Gaines feud on Saturday.

“@Simone_Biles argument is the antithesis of title 9 and equal opportunity it’s provided for women. It puts girls in dangerous, compromising situations so a man pretending to be a woman can feel better about themselves,” Feely wrote.

Feely added his support for Gaines in the post.

“Simone doesn’t win any medal if she competes against men,” he wrote. “Serena Williams doesn’t win any tournaments if she competes against men. They are the best ever to do it. Why should we compromise with our high school and college girls and take away their opportunities.”

Biles went after Gaines as the OutKick podcast host reacted to a transgender pitcher competing in the Minnesota state softball championship.

“@Riley_Gaines_ You’re truly sick, all of this campaigning because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser,” Biles wrote on X. “You should be uplifting the trans community and perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive OR creating a new avenue where trans feel safe in sports. Maybe a transgender category IN ALL sports!!

“But instead… You bully them… One things for sure is no one in sports is safe with you around!!!!!”

Gaines responded to Biles’ attack.

“This is so disappointing. My take is the least controversial take on the planet,” Gaines wrote in response to Biles’ post. “Simone Biles being a male-apologist at the expense of young girls’ dreams? Didn’t have that on my bingo card.

“Maybe she could compete in pommel horse and rings in 2028.”

Feely revealed he was stepping into the Arizona congressional race in April in an interview with Fox News Digital. He entered the Republican primary for Arizona’s 5th Congressional District to replace Rep. Andy Biggs, who’s running to be the Grand Canyon State’s next governor.

L.A. police shoot knife-wielding man during response to assault call 

A man armed with a knife was shot by L.A. police officers responding to an assault with a deadly weapon call overnight, authorities said. 

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, officers with the Hollenbeck Division responded to an apartment complex in the 3000 block of Glenn Avenue in Boyle Heights at 1:45 a.m. Saturday after callers reported a male suspect was armed with a knife and had just assaulted someone in the complex. 

Arriving officers found the suspect in front of the residence, but he did not comply with officers’ commands to drop the weapon. He then advanced toward the officers and an officer-involved shooting occurred, LAPD confirmed.

Rip tides, high surf forecast for Los Angeles beaches this weekend

Dangerous rip currents and high surf are forecast for Los Angeles County beaches, including the Malibu Coast this weekend.

The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous beach statement, warning of the potentially deadly beach conditions. The dangerous conditions are forecast to last from Saturday evening to Monday morning.

“There is an increased risk of ocean drowning,” the NWS forecast reads. “Rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea. Waves can wash people off beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats nearshore.”

  • Rip Currents

Minor Beach erosion and coastal flooding is possible through the weekend. The flooding is most likely to occur during evening high tides from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.

Beachgoers are advised to stay out of the water and remain near lifeguard towers. Jetties and tidepools are also especially dangerous during the weekend forecast.

“Rock jetties can be deadly in such conditions, stay off the rocks,” the NWS forecast reads.

Los Angeles releases searchable list of worst rental properties

If you live or want to live in Los Angeles, the city controller has released a new dashboard highlighting some of the city’s most notorious problem rental properties, a tool designed to help renters avoid future headaches.

“This project comes at a time when tenants are reporting harassment and illegal evictions violating the City’s Rent Stabilization Ordinance, Just Cause for Eviction Ordinance and Tenant Anti‑Harassment Ordinance, but very few of the complaints end up leading to strong enforcement or real accountability,” L.A. City Controller Kenneth Mejia said in a media release Thursday.

The new Top 100 Problem Rental Properties dashboard includes a searchable database of all residential addresses with reported housing violation cases within the city of Los Angeles, a ranked list of the 100 addresses with the most violations and an interactive map.

“There has never before been an uncomplicated way for anyone to look up years’ worth of violations by address,” Mejia said in the release.

Data for the dashboard was compiled from multiple sources, including the Los Angeles Housing Department, Los Angeles City Planning and the L.A. County Assessor’s Office, according to the controller’s office.

The release also identified the top three addresses with the highest number of reported housing violations:

1. 636 1/2 North Hill Place, Chinatown
192 housing violation cases

2. 11700 West Wilshire Boulevard, Sawtelle
166 housing violation cases

3. 6650 West Forest Lawn Drive, Hollywood Hills
113 housing violation cases

“Our new dashboard is an easy‑to‑understand public tool that we hope will help renters and organizers document patterns of harm, as well as put pressure on both landlords and the City to act,” Mejia said. “Everyone deserves safe, stable and dignified housing.”
