Boosie Badazz called out Dave Portnoy on Twitter, Tuesday, for calling Angel Reese a "classless piece of shit." In response to the controversial tweet, Boosie called the Barstool founder a "bitch." Portnoy originally made the comment in response to Reese taunting Iowa's Caitlin Clark after LSU defeated the team in the National Championship.
"DAVE POTNEY YOU A BITCH ‼️" Bossie wrote on Twitter. "KEEP SENDING YO NUDES TO OTHER DUDES U FUCKING RACIST BITCH‼️ FREAK MONSTER." The rapper also called out Keith Olbermann, who expressed a similar sentiment to Portnoy. "U A RACIST‼️" he began. "Larry Bird daughter did the same thing as ANGEL n u call her that‼️ REALLY SMH. YOU THE ONE WITH NO CLASS AT ALL. Thanks @KeithOlbermann YOUVE JUST SHOWED THE WORLD HOW MUCH OF A RACIST YOU R. THEY CANT SAY NOTHING TO YOU, BUT I CAN MF‼️ n I got time."

Portnoy later explained his remark, revealing that he bet on Iowa to win and was emotional in response to the result. “I’m in a pretty big full-fledged internet war,” Portnoy said. "That bet is a major part of probably what transpired and I can explain… I call her ‘a classless piece of shit’ and off we go… It is classless by the way… If someone does something that I don’t like in a game I’m watching, I tweet.”
He also argued that Reese's taunt was substantially different from Caitlin Clark's own trash-talking. “I think you’re basically lying if you’re saying what Caitlin Clark did and Angel Reese did are the same thing — they’re not,” Portnoy said. “I like trash talking. If you hit a big shot in the moment or you’re talking s–t in the moment, back and forth… I don’t care. That is not what Angel Reese did. Find me one example in any sport, of anybody, after somebody wins a championship, confetti coming down, not in a close game — and find me a player stalking the best player on the other team. It is not sexist. It does not happen. If a man did that, he would be called ‘classless’ and nobody would be saying anything.”
