Saints players and other key sports and public figures are angry at Drew Brees for his anthem comments

Any one who follows the Saints already knew that Drew was this kind of guy. And by that I mean Focus on the Family, Republicans, Ellen, and just generally being a moral trashfire. I don't think anyone who knows him was actually surprised, but Malcolm has been away for awhile, particularly during when the Kap thing blew up and everyone got a good taste.

FWIW I think Drew’s response lacked awareness and was tone deaf, but why is someone that has differing views from yourself (Drew in this case) a “moral trashfire”? Why resort to this kind of name calling since his ideals don’t align with your own?
