If you don't think people were going to seek him out about his opinion on this, you are out of your mind. It's not like he is calling for the players to sit out or the customers to stay away. He gave what I consider a very measured response. "We've made enormous strides, but you're going to continue to see this percolate up every so often," he added. "And I think that we just have to be clear and steady in denouncing it, teaching our children differently, but also remaining hopeful that part of why statements like this stand out some much is because there has been this shift in how we view ourselves.""
