I think ESPN is going bonkers with this. If this gentleman was a Southerner, named after the General they might have a point; but this broadcaster is oriental and the name Lee is very common among Chinese, Korean and other people from that part of the world.
Imagine what is going to happen with all the Washingtons, Lincolns and so no that we have in our part of the world.
Not to smart to be fighting wars of 200 years ago and ignoring the ones that we have today.
