During his four hours co-hosting a New York sports radio show Friday, Gov. Christie weighed in on the NBA’s decision to move its All-Star Game from North Carolina because of the state’s transgender bathroom law.
“It’s grandstanding by the NBA. That’s what they do,” Christie said on WFAN’s “Boomer & Carton." He questioned whether the league -- which objected to the "climate" created by the law barring transgender people from using public bathrooms that don't correspond with their birth gender -- was “going to evaluate the laws in every state.”
It was one of the lone political topics breached during the governor’s on-air stint, which mostly revolved around the New York Mets and, at various points, whether injured outfielder Yoanis Cespedes’s golfing contributed to him landing on the disabled list.
