In the heartland of America, where football is more than a pastime, the Kansas City Chiefs’ Special Teams Coordinator has bashed President Trump for daring to speak the truth about the NFL’s latest kickoff rule change. Trump, always ready to defend traditional values, questioned these absurd new regulations that aim to water down the spirit of football—a sentiment millions of football fans share. It’s just another round of “sissy” rules that satin-gloved bureaucrats love to push.
America’s gridiron glory is under siege, and yet a coach, who should be focusing on his floundering team, decides to launch a tirade against the former president. Instead of channeling his frustration—the real frustration stemming from a team having its worst season in over a decade—Dave Toub chose to lash out. Why? Is it easier to blame leaders who stand up for American traditions than to look inward at a team needing answers on the field?

Mr. Toub’s misplaced anger reflects liberal hypocrisy at its finest. When Trump criticizes—or rather, criticizes with justified reason—he’s made a target, showing just how out of touch some sports figures can be. Those who defend these ridiculous changes should perhaps revisit history. Such rule changes are not about safety; they are carefully crafted moves to erode the soul of America’s game. Football has been a pillar of toughness and grit. Why soften it?
This incident is yet another example of unnecessary divisiveness. Honest critique of damaging developments is twisted into personal attacks. Astonishingly, the coach acts like he’s been targeted when Trump merely criticized the rule, not him or his management of the Chiefs’ current dismal performance.
In an era where standing up for traditional values seems radical, Trump’s statements are a breath of fresh air. Are we to let bureaucrats in sports diminish what makes America great? It’s time we collectively question who really has our nation’s best interests at heart—empty-talking coaches or a leader calling out the nonsense robbing our heritage?
