So following in the footsteps of the NFL this guy politicizes the olympics... ratings seem to be going down... surely some of his teamates are pissed for soaking up all the publicity with this crap. Now he says he does not want to make this about Mike Pence. Its like the NFL players kneeling for the Flag and then saying its not about the flag. Stop ruining sports and entertainment with politics.
