Harrell contends that if athletes wish to make a political statement about women's sports, they should communicate their message directly instead of engaging in public displays. He advises, "I know what you're trying to say about men not playing with women, but just use your words as a grown man. Don't try to berate women... It's not what you're saying, it's how you're saying it."

Royce White, now focused on right-wing populism and a U.S. Senate run, reacts to Harrell's criticism with hostility: "This is how bitches talk... 'It's not what you're saying, it's how you're saying it.' Find a more 'politically correct' way to tell me the truth. I'm done with nice ways to tell dumb people common sense."
