But isn’t that in itself interesting? Popovich is is a well-known liberal, so he gets a pass on standing for the anthem and no one questions it. If he were a conservative, he’d be called a white supremacist.I saw that Popovich stood for the anthem. He declined to discuss his reasons and have to assume that his military service would be the reason. Obviously Pop has made his bones over the years speaking out against racism and social injustice. Plus his raging case of TDS is well known. I don't agree with his view of the world, and thought of him as a real a hole. But I do respect his "stand" for the flag. Disappointing, but not surprising that more coaches didn't follow his lead.
