Resumen del Editor

Sports media superstar Clay Travis wants to save sports from the social justice warriors seeking to turn them into another political battleground.

Have you ever tuned into your favorite sports highlights show only to find the talking heads yammering about the newest Trump tweets or what an athlete thinks about the Second Amendment? The way Clay Travis sees it, sports are barely about sports anymore. Whether it’s in the stadium or the studio, the conversation isn’t about who’s talented and who stinks. It’s about who said the right or wrong thing from the sidelines or on social media. And we know which side is playing referee in that game.

Having ruined journalism and Hollywood, far-left-wing activists have now turned to sports. Travis argues it’s time for right-thinking fans everywhere to put down their beers and reclaim their teams and their traditions. In Republicans Buy Sneakers, Too, he replays the arguments he’s won and lays out all the battles ahead. His goal is simple: to make sports great again.

Travis wants sports to remain the great equalizer and ultimate meritocracy - a passion that unites Americans of all races, genders, and creeds, providing an opportunity to find common ground and an escape from polarizing commentary. He takes listeners through the recent politicization of sports, controversy by controversy and untalented-but-celebrated hero by hero, and skewers outlets like ESPN that spend more time mimicking MSNBC than covering sports.

Travis hopes if we can stop sports from being just another political battlefield and return it to our common ground, we can come together as a country again.

Clay humorously hounds the foe outrage industry.

As a regular Out Kick listener, I hesitated to buy this book because I feared it would be a repeat of what I already heard live daily. I was pleasantly surprised that there were many new gems in addition to many more lucid deep dives into some well worn topics.

If you already like Clay, this book is like finding an old favorite pair of jeans or comfortable shoes you has forgotten about over the summer. If you have never heard experienced Mr. Travis, try to reserve judgement until the end and enjoy the ride. Even if you disagree, Clay Travis is is more an intellectual than shock jock but does not take himself too seriously.

Great read

I will never completely agree with Clay, but the book illustrates the bias in the world today. As a privileged southern white male I understand.

Clay, keep up the great work

SPOT ON

This book should be read out loud to ALL of Congress as well as NFLPA meetings and Owner's meetings of all the major sports. Please know this is a sports book about politics not a political book about sports. I have purchased several copies to Christmas presents this year. Thanks Clay

Clay is the man!

This book was everything I wanted it to be and more. Regardless of your political side, the arguments in this book are clear and compelling and will challenge everything you've seen in main stream sports media. I would recommend this a thousand times over.

Pure Honest Unfiltered Truths

I love this book and anyone with an open mind will love it too! I abandoned ESPN talk shows years ago because they were getting too political but Clay really informed me on just how bad it got.

thoughtful and simply concise

will ideally get people to think- stop letting the intellectually lazy define the narrative - keep writing
