He doesn't want to hear politics he disagrees with. SO he'll inject his politics into sports. Got it.

I don't like having to sit through jingoistic military displays before football games. I don't like the war metaphors that spill over to sports so jocks view being a fan with participating in a battle. I don't like sports stations filling air time with Right wing bullshit and lies.

For athletes to be so blatantly racist is especially deplorable, because the ball doesn't give a rat's ass what color the players are.

Farve is a has been who stayed too long.
