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.

Only a commi globalist, talks like this
RETARD
I think you should be band for writing articles period you liberal goon.
The Flag of this Country should not be banned, you should be banned. Many good and brave men and women have died and given their lives defending the American Flag and The United States of America. I would like to see them order you to serve in the Armed Services and sent in to action on the front lines, then ordered to serve as a Law Enforcement Officer. The is no doubt in my mind that your view and attitude would greatly change on your views of this Country, it’s symbol, and those who protect you and what you take for granted and feel you are you are entitled to at the expense of other. Shame is on you.
What should be banned is anyone who does not honor our flag and our heritage which includes you.
IT REPRESENTS WHO AMERICA IS, AND PROUD OF IT
Leave the country
Asinine fool
I think he should say that to widows, widowers,Moms and Dads and anyone who receives ther loved one back in flag draped coffin. At least those individuals believed in Freedom and were brave enough to fight for it!
