Pro Athletes Blast Donald Trump For His Version Of Locker Room Talk

Donald Trump has never played for a professional sports team. He did own a team -- the New Jersey Generals of the USFL -- and he owns a bunch of golf courses. He plays a lot of golf. But no, he was never on a pro team.

With Trump defending his lewd 2005 comments to Billy Bush as "locker room talk" on Friday and then again at the second presidential debate Sunday, real pro athletes are putting up their own guard. Sports figures -- notably C.J. McCollum, Blake Griffin, Jamal Crawford, Jacob Tamme and Martina Navratilova -- took to social media to show they feel misrepresented by Trump.

Locker room?

I haven't heard that one in any locker rooms https://t.co/Ci8NXOgFcI

All this heavy breathing seems more locker room-esque than anything #debate

As an athlete, I've been in locker rooms my entire adult life and uh, that's not locker room talk.

Just for reference. I work in a locker room (every day)... that is not locker room talk. Just so you know...

Claiming Trump's comments are "locker room banter" is to suggest they are somehow acceptable. They aren't.

When he said locker room talk was he talking about the heavy breathing?! If so, well damn he's spot on. #Debate

I'm offended as an athlete that @realDonaldTrump keeps using this "locker room talk" as an excuse.

locker room talk? that's the same as group chat talk right?

PSA: sexual advances without consent is NOT locker room talk.

Locker room talk? Not on your life- this was Trump exactly how he is. Authentic. Obnoxious. Criminal. Etc....

Model Brooklyn Decker hopes husband Andy Roddick did not speak like Trump in pro tennis locker rooms.
