Alabama football coach Nick Saban was among a handful of sports figures from West Virginia to sign a letter urging Sen. Joe Manchin, a Democrat, to support the passage of the Freedom to Vote Act.

“Yup. I doubt Coach gives a rip about this issue, but a lot of the black players he’s recruiting do!”

And a lot of the indoctrinated white kids.

Saban has absolutely no idea what’s in the bogus bill.

But, he feels he has to suck-up to the WOKE mob.

And those players Saban is recruiting are ready for college level education? How far have we fallen if they believe this is about voting “rights”!

Freedom to cheat and rig all future elections for democrats? We should all be shouting this from the rooftops. Don’t let this HUGE LIE stand.

Clearly, Nick hasn’t read the bill or he thinks US elections and its voting should be open to the entire population of this planet. Plus, why would I care what a football coach has to say about voting?

Saban is in a black-dominated sport, so he has to go along with the mob. I bet he doesn’t know jack-squat about what’s in the bill.

Put down your megaphone and back off, Saban. I can’t stand these celebs that use the power of the pulpit to pressure politicians. If you want to get into politics then run you hack.

Agreed.

The so-called Freedom to Vote Act is to voter freedom what Planned Parenthood is to parenting.

I’d say THAT is grounds for firing him in Alabama . . . War Eagle

He knows how to coach football, but he must be dumber than a rock about politics and right and wrong. The legislation he is supporting is 100% evil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would ask the coach which American do NOT have the freedom to vote. I’d love to hear the explanation.

First, he lost the game.

Now, he will lose his fans.

Bye, Nick.

You have no idea what just happened, do you?

Pandering to your mostly Black student-athletes on a completely bogus voter rights issue will earn you nothing but contempt.

Saban is 70 years old.

Head for the exit door, Grandpa.

Saban, stick to coaching. You are an idiot and are incompetent when you enter the field of evil politics.
