hell they have always catered to the left..they even posted numerous accounts and stories about how great Obama was and how Trump was a joke...I get it, a lot of athletes are black and are generally left leaning in politics, but for someone watching sports, I generally want to get away from politics and being preached to by a pc society...this is a reason why I don't watch them as much. I also think they rely too much on pop music and other "cool" things. Stick to sports, not the social commentary that is now dominating the network. I get there are times when examining social concerns are part of the story, but constantly cramming politics into the sports is just mind numbingly ridiculous.
