Description

Sports are barely about sports anymore. The conversation in stadiums and studios is dominated by who said what from the sidelines or on social media. Clay Travis argues that it's time for right-thinking fans to reclaim their teams and traditions. Travis takes readers through the recent politicization of sports, controversy by controversy, and skewers outlets like ESPN which spend more time mimicking MSNBC than covering sports. He hopes that if we can stop sports from being just another political battlefield, we can come together as a country again. In "Republicans Buy Sneakers Too", Travis makes the case for sports to remain the great equalizer and ultimate meritocracy - a passion that unites Americans of all races, genders, and creeds.
