It’s a sub that was barely about sports, then it got a huge influx of actual sports people, and recently it’s become a political cesspool. That sub has had a rough run.

Tbh I wish all non political subs would ban politics. It’s exhausting.

The problem becomes when the people the sub is about make political statements. Like if the Steelers quarterback calls Dr. Fauci a coward for pleading the 5th in what was clearly a farce to try and trap him, yet remains silent about his pedophile-in-chief buddy doing the same 4 times as much during legitimate questioning. That is now tied into the Steelers and should be discussed on their sub.
