Let It Rip Weekend: Baseball announcer fight; Kaepernick Nike ad
On this edition of Let It Rip Weekend, Detroit Tigers broadcasters Rod Allen and Mario Impemba are out of the lineup after the two reportedly got into a physical fight in the broadcast booth last week. Was taking them off the air the right response?
And, customers are burning their Nikes after the brand's new ad featuring Colin Kaepernick hails him as a hero. He stirred controvery in 2016 when he took a knee before an NFL game during the National Anthem to protest police brutality and racial injustice. No he's the cause of controversy again; was using him a good idea for Nike?
