Prince Harry faces BARRAGE OF BRUTIAL CRITICISM in the US with Pat Tillman Award

Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, has found himself at the center of a heated debate in the United States after being nominated for the prestigious Pat Tillman Award for Service at the ESPY Awards. While some applaud the recognition, others question whether he truly embodies the spirit of the award.

The Pat Tillman Award: A Legacy of Selflessness

The Pat Tillman Award is named in honor of Pat Tillman, a former NFL player and US Army Ranger who made the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan. Tillman abandoned a lucrative football career to serve his country, and his legacy is one of selflessness and unwavering commitment.

The Pat Tillman award is usually given to unsung heroes who capture the legacy of the late veteran.

Tillman’s mother’s disapproval

Mary Tillman, the mother of Pat Tillman, expressed her shock and disappointment at ESPN’s choice. She was never consulted about the decision to give the award to Prince Harry. In an interview with the Daily Mail, she stated, “I am shocked as to why they would select such a controversial and divisive individual to receive the award.” Mary Tillman believes there are more deserving recipients within the veteran community who lack the privilege and resources that Prince Harry possesses.

Pat McAfee’s Critique

Sports analyst and former NFL punter Pat McAfee minced no words when expressing his opinion about Prince Harry’s nomination. He criticized the ESPY Awards for their decision, arguing that it does not align with the award’s intended purpose. According to McAfee, the award should go to someone with a strong connection to sports who has served others in a manner reflective of Pat Tillman’s legacy.

Departure from Royal Duties

McAfee also pointed out that Prince Harry’s departure from royal duties raises questions about his eligibility for the award. “It’s going to Prince Harry,” McAfee quipped, “who I don’t even think is a prince anymore.” The departure from his royal role has left some wondering whether Harry’s current path truly reflects the selflessness associated with the award.

Harry had served in the British military for 10 years, including two tours in Afghanistan as a helicopter pilot.

Lack of Due Diligence?

The controversy extends to the ESPY Awards’ selection process. Winners are chosen through global online fan voting from candidates selected by the ESPY Select Nominating Committee. McAfee criticized this process, suggesting that it lacked due diligence. He questioned whether the committee thoroughly researched its candidates before making the nominations.

Fan Reactions

McAfee summed up the sentiment among sports fans succinctly: “Hey, don’t be putting our f***ing guy with that guy.” The immediate reaction from many is one of skepticism, wondering if Prince Harry truly belongs in the same category as Pat Tillman.

Some even require the Invictus Games to be returned to Prince William and Princess Catherine, who they believe to be its ‘true’ founders.

In the end, the debate continues, and the ESPY Awards’ decision to nominate Prince Harry remains a topic of intense discussion. Whether he deserves the Pat Tillman Award or not, the controversy underscores the importance of honoring those who embody selflessness and service in the world of sports.
