That was at 7:30
look at the ESPN pics from game time
That guy gets the Jed Boosh award.
Boosh campain slogan: Make America Mexico Again!
Last month they were protesting the Bars & Stars of the Commonwealth of Virginia, now they protest the US Flag. When does it stop?
hmmm....say we’re just trying to “start a conversation”
Too late!
