Sports media superstar Clay Travis wants to save sports from the social
justice warriors seeking to turn them into another political
battleground.
Have you ever tuned into your favorite sports highlights show, only to
find the talking heads yammering about the newest Trump tweets or what
an athlete thinks about the second amendment? The way Clay Travis sees
it, sports are barely about sports anymore. Whether it's in the stadium
or the studio, the conversation isn't about who's talented and who
stinks. It's about who said the right or wrong thing from the sidelines
or on social media. And we know which side is playing referee in that
game.
Having ruined journalism and Hollywood, far left-wing activists have now
turned to sports. Travis argues it's time for right-thinking fans
everywhere to put down their beers and reclaim their teams and their
traditions. In Republicans Buy Sneakers, Too he replays the arguments
he's won and lays out all the battles ahead. His goal is simple: to make
sports great again.
Travis wants sports to remain the great equalizer and ultimate
meritocracy--a passion that unites Americans of all races, genders, and
creeds, providing an opportunity to find common ground and an escape
from polarizing commentary. He takes readers through the recent
politicization of sports, controversy by controversy and
untalented-but-celebrated hero by hero, and skewers outlets like ESPN
which spend more time mimicking MSNBC than covering sports.
Travis hopes that if we can stop sports from being just another
political battlefield, and return it to our common ground, we can come
together as a country again.
