In defense of @Dhoop , during our time together in Anaheim, I never once received the slightest indication of his political preferences, to the point where I thought the name itself was possibly meant to be ironic. I have not witnessed him talking about politics, or being anything but a welcoming and accepting presence in the Anaheim locker room. I feel that a name change is likely in order, but, based on my interactions with him, I think Dhoop is a good person, even if I don't agree with him politically (and far from it).

TLDR;: He's not a dick, but should change his player name.
