NFL Reporter Levels Troll With Hard-Earned Comeback
NFL Network reporter Stacey Dales just smacked a Twitter troll so hard that we’re gonna need a minute.
On Wednesday, Dales tweeted about Los Angeles Lakers rookie guard Lonzo Ball, calling him “the most over-hyped player I have ever seen.”
I know it’s early, but early happened to him. Lonzo Ball is the most over-hyped player I have ever seen. May he catch his stride 👏🏼

Then came this response:
Stick to nfl plz

Oh, misguided Twitter-disser, it turns out that Dales is more than qualified to opine on such matters.
I played basketball for over 25 years. In the WNBA. In the Olympics. I’m a two-time first team All-American out of Oklahoma. They retired my jersey. Stick to remaining silent. https://t.co/IOXLaOEDfm

And she rubbed it in with relish.

It wasn’t over. Dales had more to say on the matter Thursday morning.
I just woke up. I really hate having to defend myself to internet midgets. People, start to respect women. We are JUST the other gender. Pretty mighty if you ask me.

Oh. And you should have seen me play.

Later on, Pro Football Hall of Famer Warren Sapp demanded that the Twitter wiseacre apologize to Dales, but the critic wouldn’t back down.
Apologize to my Great Friend and Bad Azzz @StaceyDales Good Sir, U was Waaaay Out of line! That’s what I woke up to! #ThanksInAdvance
