Is there such a thing as a liberal football guy?

"Is there such a thing as a liberal football guy?"

Maybe at some wuss school like Swarthmore or Amherst, but that would be it. To the extent that they have any politics at all, it seems like the overwhelming majority of those involved in athletics tend to be Conservative. This is probably because sports are competitive and the idea is to WIN, not to share an experience with your opponent. One of the few high-profile liberal coaches I can think of is former North Carolina basketball coach Dean Smith.
