2024 Woke All-Star Challenge: Final Four -- Vote Now!

In what can only be described as one of the wildest Woke All-Star Challenges in OutKick history, this illustrious event arrives at the Identity Politics Final Four with all four No. 1 seeds sent home and two newcomers – MSNBC's woke maniac Joy Reid and Sheryl Swoopes – in contention for a title. 

Throw in Gregg Popovich pulling off a surprising victory over Steve Kerr after losing handily to Kerr in the 2023 Challenge and Dan Le Batard coming all the way from the play-in round to the Final Four and you have a magical year for the Challenge. 

Now it all comes down to this: Joy Reid vs. Dan Le Batard and Greg Popovich vs. Sheryl Swoopes. 

Is this the worst-case scenario matchup for Dan? 100%. Joy Reid hasn't been challenged. In her Elite 8 matchup with cop hater Mark Jones, Reid garnered a staggering 77% of the vote. The guy literally cannot stand cops, while using cops for security detail, and yet Reid stomped Jones. 

That's bad news for Le Batard, who is best known lately for coming to the defense of dead website Deadspin for its coverage of the Chiefs kid they said was wearing blackface. 

In the other semifinal, you have Popovich who has championed woke causes for years vs. newcomer Sheryl Swoopes who burst onto the scene in February when she decided to opine on the Caitlin Clark college basketball scoring record chase. 

Let's go out and decide which woke will play for a spot on the woke Mt. Rushmore.
