EPSN has taken a lot of heat lately for the prominence of left-wing politics on their telecasts, but they’re not the only ones combining politics and sport. This week, an NBC Sports personality attacked the presence of American flags at baseball games.
One would think that other networks would have learned from ESPN’s troubles. For many, the outrage against the ESPN began with Collin Kaepernick. When the 49er QB sparked controversy for kneeling during the national anthem, one ESPN personality called the protest “a wonderful thing.” In December, it was revealed that the network lost half-a-million subscribers, much of which was attributed to the network’s far-left politics.
NBC Sports writer Craig Calcaterra doesn’t appear deterred by ESPN’s woes. Instead, he seems to be emulating the behavior that has gotten his colleagues at ESPN in so much trouble. In fact, his comments were so anti-American, it could be argued that his views are even more controversial.
Read what he said about the American flag on the next page:
Kiss my red white& blue$#%&!@*stupid.
Democrats, Republicans, Independents, religious people and atheists should all respect the flag of their country. It should be the one thing that all can agree on.
This NBC sports writer is a frigging moron!!!!!!!
Fire this idiot and boycott NBC until he is fired
Hey Craig, you sorry excuse for an American– I don’t know what country your family is from. But you need to move your butt back there. Maybe the political climate is “just right” for a little s**t like you!
YOU SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE GAMES

2 words: You’re fired.

What in Hell do you think people think of all things being advertised or promoted by people such as you?
