Landon Donovan’s San Diego Loyal did the right thing in protest
In case you didn’t know, Landon Donovan’s San Diego Loyal has forfeited their second match in a week, last week against LA Galaxy II, this week against Phoenix Rising, to protest racist and homophobic abuse directed towards their players.
I felt compelled to write this when I saw dozens of people on Twitter (I know) reacting to the video of Landon Donovan speaking to the officials and Phoenix Rising manager Rick Schantz.
