Trump election angers, disappoints many in sports world
By TIM REYNOLDS
Associated Press
LeBron James made his
third
championship-cele-
brating trip to the White
House
on
Thursday,
welcomed as he was for the
first two such trips by Presi-
dent Barack Obama.
If James returns in the
next four years, it may seem
very awkward.
James is no fan of Pres-
ident-elect Donald Trump,
and — after a most divisive
presidential campaign ended
this week — athletes and
coaches are dealing with the
same emotions as those in
everyday walks of life. And
many in the sports world
haven’t been shy about
expressing their disappoint-
ment over Trump’s election.
“I can’t say I’ve ever been
ashamed of our country,”
Detroit Pistons coach Stan
Van Gundy said. “Until
today.”
James openly backed
Hillary Clinton for president,
and it just so happened
that he and the Cleveland
Cavaliers were at the White
House — part of the standard
reward for winning a cham-
pionship — on the same day
Trump was. Obama met with
Trump in the Oval Office to
talk presidential transition as
the Cavaliers were getting a
tour, then Obama greeted the
NBA champions on the South
Lawn about two hours later.
There was no mention of
Trump during the Cavaliers’
ceremony.
There have been many,
many mentions of presi-
dent-elect in many other
realms of the sports world.
“All of a sudden, you’re
faced with the reality that
the man who’s going to lead
you has routinely used racist,
misogynist, insulting words,”
Golden State Warriors coach
Steve Kerr said. “That’s a
tough one. That’s a tough
one. I wish him well. I
hope he’s a good president.
I have no idea what kind of
president he’ll be because he
hasn’t said anything about
what he’s going to do. We
don’t know.”
It’s rare that one topic can
be the primary discussion
point in locker rooms across
different sports at the same
time.

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr reacts during
the second half of the team’s NBA basketball game
against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, Nov. 9,
2016, in Oakland, Calif.
This is one of those times.
New England Patriots
coach Bill Belichick and
quarterback Tom Brady were
peppered with questions
Wednesday about their pref-
erences, after Trump indi-
cated he had their support.
But in college football,
Alabama coach Nick Saban
said — somewhat unbeliev-
ably — he wasn’t even aware
of Election Day.
“It was so important to
me that I didn’t even know it
was happening,” Saban said.
“We’re focused on other
things here.”
Chicago Cubs pitcher
Jake Arrieta tweeted that
it’s time “for Hollywood to
pony up and head for the
border,” what appeared to
be a reference to some actors
and entertainers saying they
would move to Canada if
Trump won. Trump also had
support from others in sports;
Buffalo Bills offensive
lineman Richie Incognito
used Trump’s signature
“Make America
Great
Again” phrase as a hashtag.
Los Angeles Clippers
coach Doc Rivers has golfed
with Trump, though didn’t
support his candidacy. Rivers
said if people truly want
change in the future, more
should vote.
“Right now, we have a
president in office who is
terrific,” Rivers said. “And
we have one coming in that
has done nothing yet, and
you’ve got to give him a shot.
He’s going to be president.
That’s a guarantee.”
Trump and sports are often
intertwined, including earlier
this year when the PGA Tour
announced that his Doral
course near Miami would not
host an event for the first time
in more than 50 years. Part
of the issue at Doral, though
not the entire problem, was
that Trump made plenty of
caustic comments during
his campaign and that made
finding sponsorship for a
PGA Tour event on one of his
courses difficult.
The Doral tournament,
somewhat ironically, is
headed to Mexico — the
country that Trump wants
divided from the U.S. by
a wall to combat illegal
immigration. On Thursday,
Mexican Formula One
driver Sergio Perez ended his
relationship with one of his
sponsors after that company,
Hawkers, made a joke that
Perez thought was in poor
taste about the planned wall.
“I would never let anyone
make fun of my country,”
Perez said.
But the frustrations are
certainly not limited to
minorities in sports right now.
Kerr and Van Gundy, two of
the league’s most outspoken
coaches about many issues,
are white.
Van Gundy said he
couldn’t figure out what
was bothering his team
Wednesday, before Pistons
forward Aron Baynes — an
Australian — spoke up and
suggested that the team vent
about the election.
And after that talk, Van
Gundy let his anger out.
He said he lives in Oakland
County, Michigan, an area that
voted primarily for Clinton.
“At least I can look
around,” Van Gundy said,
“and say we weren’t the ones
putting that guy in office.”
