Maria Taylor Got Crushed for a Tweet About Baylor ‘Men’s Basketball’

Maria Taylor was looking hard for a fight. Following Baylor’s win over Arkansas late Monday night, SportsCenter tweeted out that the Bears are making their first trip to the Final Four since 1950. For whatever reason, Maria thought it would be a good time to call out tweet for gender discrimination. She was upset the stat she thought she read didn’t mention the women’s team.

See her tweet below:

Baylor Men’s*….because the women won the title in 2019 https://t.co/gGOMo9nJKu

Twitter went hard at her:

Thank you for your service Maria. If not for you Baylor’s 2019 title would’ve vanished into the world of toxic masculinity.

Because the graphic doesn’t clearly say “Men’s Tournament” or have one of the men’s basketball players. https://t.co/YGqcdP11jc

It literally says Men’s on the poster. Gotta be upset about something To get those likes I guess. https://t.co/EPFzWlP4DA

This defines intellectual dishonesty. Just ignore the obvious and push fake outrage. Welcome to the mindset of sports media personalities. A picture of a man AND the word "men's" in the graphic just wasn't enough for the critical eye of Ms. Taylor. https://t.co/0zydaxyoGZ

People are really reachin for likes nowadays and ignoring context in the process https://t.co/kXLPXuW68V

It feels like everyone is on the hunt to cancel something.

Maria needs to pump the brakes on her reaching.
