There's Politics In Football. Deal With It - 9/28/17 - a podcast by PodVader

from 2017-09-28T19:00

:: ::

We tackle a very important issue in this week's episode of Next Fan Up - politics and football. PodVader is joined by James (Eagles), Kevin (Cowboys), Andy (Dolphins) and Josh (Lions) to discuss what happened in week 3.

But it's more than just what happened - it's why it happened. It's why politics and football should be a thing. It's about protesting. It's about hearing the messages. It's about opening your mind and stop using sports as an escape from the real world things that need to be addressed. 

Along with James' piece on the subject matter at our own website, www.nextfanup.wordpress.com, we encourage you to read these pieces too.
