The hubris of American sports, players and broadcasters is overwhelming.
This move is proof positive that sports broadcasting is managed by morons. Just dipshits in expensive suits.

This is about as absurd as the school district who suspended a little girl who brought a Tweety bird key chain to school because the district had a zero tolerance weapons policy.

They would have been hammered by the left for the coincidence of the guy’s name, Virginia, and all the current snowflakery. They are just getting out in front of the criticism.

Crazy.
These folks are like the people in the 70s playing record albums backwards looking for satanic messages. If you look hard enough...

Thanks, I didn’t know there had been so many incidents.

I don’t think anyone in his family was around at that time. In case you’re not joking, the guy is Asian.

We aren’t allowed to know.

If anyone heard Mark Steyn substituting for Rush Limbaugh yesterday, he was making a joke about if your name is Robert, or Lee, or have the middle initial E, you must be a racist. Maybe the guy could call himself Bob Lee.

I was offended by the name Obama for 8 years. Can we strike his name from the history books?
