Run along, Jenny, and next week I'll show you why women can't play professional football.

What it means

Ted Olson sends Jenny away with a patronising brush-off. The promise to show next week why women can't play professional football is the speaker's own sweeping claim, not established fact. It's a smug, deadpan gag of parody bluster.
