sports, not to be lectured on social justice?

Turned on college gameday this morning to see Herbstreet in literal tears because people just don't understand what the players are trying to do.

Started watching the Marshall game and they spent more time discussing social justice than football. Thankfully the Army-MTSU game started shortly after and CBS seems to understand that football games are actually about football.
