“The best thing about it is you’re showing kids that no matter where you grow up, what race you are, that you can achieve your dream,” Mahomes said then. “For me, being a black quarterback — having a black dad and a white mom — it just shows that it doesn’t matter where you come from.”

I am a San Diego Chargers fan - so knew of him from the get go.

I haven’t heard anything else from it, so guessing they haven’t figured out who did it yet.

ESPN: more political and less about sports. Might as well watch CNN, MSNBC.....

Which is too bad because some of their 30 for 30 specials were great.
