trump will bestow Presidential Medal of Freedom to Lou Holtz. Now don't get me wrong...

I like Lou Holtz.

But now the Medal of Freedom goes to football coaches who really haven't distinguished themselves except for a coaching career?

What new ground did Lou Holtz break? What act of bravery did he commit that enhanced the causes of freedom and justice in America?

Maybe I'm missing something he did? Did he jump into a river and save a drowning puppy?

Everything trump touches turns to shit, and he has totally cheapened the Medal of Freedom.

3. You should probably go check out a list of Medal of Freedom recipients.

You might be surprised to see some of the names on it.

4. Obama gave Dean Smith one

Of the things Trump did, this doesn't seem as bad.

5. Dean Smith was a force for civil rights in college sports.

Big difference.

6. I think...

... that Rush Limbaugh has forever tainted the Honor. I know many great people were honored, but I'll never think of the medal without thinking of Rush Limbaugh.
