UPDATE: Seems no one could predict...

...that epidermally enhanced millionaire athletes protesting racism and white privilege might be a hard sell to their uber-patriotic blue collar base...

LAST WORD: Politics supercedes entertainment
San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich stated on ESPN2 Monday that “white people have to be made to feel uncomfortable.”

That might just fit the bill.
