Fully agree with you. Rashford's work in particular showed how public figures can enact real change around bigger issues beyond football.

If anything, Henderson's situation highlights how fine the line is between activisim and virtue signaling.

Its easy to put out a statement in support of something with nothing on the line. If Hendo truly cared, he wouldnt have taken the job.

I have family members that are gay, and I would never get in bed with Saudi as it would destroy my relationship with them. Having said that, Ive never had millions waved in front of my face, so who knows if I would really stick by my morals.
