#378 Sports teams supporting “gay pride” are suffering backlash

When those of us who love sports tune in, we look to those moments as an escape from politics and agendas, but we are hit over the head with everyone’s grievances, time and again. Many people have given up watching sports entirely for that reason.

Las Vegas Review Journal sportswriter Adam Hill had a column this week about the backlash some sports teams received when they posted about “pride month”. He’s a great writer and did a fantastic job covering the Superbowl, but I had to comment on this particular column. I can tell you all about backlash from the “tolerant” side of the aisle – I’ve LIVED it.
