CrossFit CEO Steps Down After His Racial Remarks
Reebok ends its CrossFit sponsorship over CrossFit CEO’s tweet about George Floyd
He apologized. I don’t get the big deal of why he caused such a rift. His opinion was his only. Everyone needs to settle down! Such a shame people are so sensitive.
I’m not saying that what happened to Mr Floyd was ok, it was not but Mr Floyd was a career criminal who made bad choices. It caught up with him by a bad cop. Mr Glassman doesn’t have to mourn over this. He apologized because it wasn’t taken well by the community that he started. I forgive him. Please don’t bring down CrossFit! I live & love CrossFit! It won’t be the same without the brand!
