You made a general sweeping statment encompassing all of sports throughout all of time. Of course there have been specific instances at one time or another.

Yeah, it's basically an isolated instance at a time when the civil rights movement was at it's peak. That doesnt mean sports have always been highly politicized

Remember when people wanted the government to interfere with the MLB and baseball records because of steroids? All the Congressional hearings? Because think about the children. It doesn't get any more political than that... Decades ago.


Another specific instance. His original statement was that sports are political by nature.

I'm really not sure what you guys are trying to argue against. Nothing in my first post is controversial. It was heavily reported that the politics is why ratings were low.

Yeah the way he made it sound was that sports have always been highly politicised. As of now, I've been given one isolated instance outside of the civil rights movement throughout all of sports history.

But really up until the last few years, we haven't had this steady stream of political spectacles
