#2 As I watch Villa and Palace playing 0-0, those NHS and Black Lives Matter patches sure add to the kits of these footballers. /sarc

#5 Charles is a trip.

Meanwhile, the Bournemouth-Leicester City match just started, and right at kick-off, everybody on the pitch takes a knee for a few seconds (some with fists raised), to include the referee. I think I'm gonna turn the game off. This is pathetic.

#12 The mainstream media companies are pushing politics into non-political broadcasting because the only audiences watching their news programs are already on board politically. sports gives a captive cross section of American society to listen to their biased political malarkey. Charles is right that the right leaning audience will stop watching.
