Not sure who is a worse “sports writer” her or David Zirin.
Different types of horrible. Jemele Hill, race-card baiting anti-white racist. Dave Zirin, hard core pinko Communist (I think he actually used to work for The Daily Worker).
The Atlantic is a website run by sportswriters who were laid-off by their big city daily papers and are desperate to keep alive the illusion that they are actually relevant to something.
Just to make a correction. The site you are referring to is “The Athletic”. Hill is writing for the left wing rag “The Atlantic”.
