ESPN is facing criticism after deciding to take announcer Robert Lee off of a University of Virginia football game simply because his name is similar to the famous Confederate general.Really, guys? You fuckers don't know that Lee is one of the more common surnames in both China and Korea? It'd be akin to getting upset because an Anglo was named John Brown.
The network came to the decision after a white supremacist rally protesting Charlottesville's planned removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee turned violent, culminating in a man driving his car into a group demonstrating against the neo-Nazis and killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer.

Their mind is focused on being a flunky for the NFL.
Silly, true. But as long as they spelled his name right it's all good. Before this unforced ESPN error had you ever heard of him? Me neither. Now he can victim-star on the web, get kickstarter & yootube wealth and a fat lawsuit. Or maybe he goes with the flow and joins dead Brietbart for the gelt and shekels like Bannon did-or move to Korea.
BTW, fuck the concussed failing NFL and especially the crooked (formerly) Oakland Traitors, now owned by bookies the way trump is owned by Russians. How could any self-respecting (former-twice) fan watch them just going through the motions tuning up for Vegas. Good riddance again.
John Brown might just not have been the best example...maybe John Smith?
