35. I would never defend the content of Hank William's comments
Edited on Mon Oct-03-11 10:36 PM by Bjorn Against
I understand very well that ESPN has the right to fire him, but I don't support their decision to do so for the same reason I would not support the decision if it were someone on my side. People should be able to express dissenting political opinions publicly without fear of losing their job and livlihood, that is a principle I hold to even for those whose ideas I find repulsive.
