Before diluting the talent pool of the NFL by expansion, the NFL was actually fun to watch back in the 1980s and ’90s. Those were the golden years of the NFL before it became a cesspool of progressive politics and not even fun to watch. Herschel Walker was a star running back during the mid 80s through late ’90s. Even he seems to be fed up with CNN and their racism. Herschel Walker is calling on CNN to fire racist Don Lemon over his pitiful racist criticism of Kanye West.
Progressives are fine with racism, as long as they are the ones being racist. Kanye West was once a star with progressive liberals and media hacks at CNN when he trashed George W. Bush after Hurricane Katrina.

Football legend-turned-activist Herschel Walker is calling for CNN to fire Don Lemon after the “CNN Tonight” host laughed when rapper Kanye West was referred to as “the token negro of the Trump administration” during a segment that aired Tuesday night.
The segment — which has been slammed as “racist” — began with Lemon asking if President Donald Trump is simply “using Kanye as a prop to win over black voters before the midterms.”
CNN political commentator Bakari Sellers responded with a jab at West.
“Anti-intellectualism simply isn’t cool,” Sellers said. “Kanye West is what happens when Negros don’t read.”
Sellers’ remark prompted laughter from Lemon and fellow panelist Tara Setmayer, who followed up by saying West is “the token negro of the Trump administration.”
Walker, who has openly supported Trump, is also an outspoken advocate for mental health issues – which were also mocked during the segment. Walker took to Twitter to express his disbelief.
