Excellent piece. I didn't even know this was going on until you talked about it with Nate and Wos the other day. And now I'm boiling mad.

God I hate our lefty Moral Majority media so fucking much. I hate them. I loathe them. I'm sick of their lecturing, their scolding, their sneering, their shaming.

It bears repeating: the vast, vast majority of people don't watch or pay attention to sports for political lectures. They do it for an escape from day-to-day drudgery and a polarizing political climate. Ditto with watching movies or playing video games.

But no. These elitist folks DEMAND you think of every one of your hobbies as political at all times. I believe I speak for everyone here when I say ENOUGH! We're all so tired of you!

It's utterly ridiculous to measure a coach's greatness by his politics. Ridiculous. Let me say it again. Ridiculous. How could a serious journalist write that? Compare Pop and Phil by their political theories? Thanks for the deep dive on the ridiculous nature of this anti-Phil wave.
