If I was a member of Arthur Ashe’s family I would ask to have his name removed from the award.

espn is a left leaning channel and they have turned into TMZ sports.

I only watch Football and the X Games on their channel.

Were they mistaking mental illness for courage, or was it a deliberate poke in the eye of the normal?
