  • A SIR Special: The Complicated Legacy of Jim Brown

    A SIR Special: The Complicated Legacy of Jim Brown
    Jun 22 2023
    Many have called Jim Brown the greatest running back of all time. Though he played in the NFL more than 60 years ago, his numbers are incredible even by today’s standards. In addition to his accomplishments on the gridiron, he was also an accomplished actor and an important leader in the fight for Civil Rights. He was a man made for the moment in which he lived. But there was also a disturbing history of violence that, with his recent passing, has led some to question how, and to what degree, he should celebrated. We take a look at all of that on this special episode of Sometimes it Rains.

We also look at the history of mascots in sports and how professional sports teams in Boston, Cleveland and Washington began to claim Native American iconography for their own.
