If you are reliably leftist like a fair number of these recipients are, that's how you bag these awards, given out by fellow leftists.GQ magazine certainly isn’t shying away from attention with the cover for its 2017 Men of the Year issue. Colin Kaepernick will be the face on the cover of the publication’s December issue, a provocative choice that is sure to generate a sizable amount of controversy.
Those who prefer a cover without Kaepernick can potentially choose the other covers produced for GQ’s Men (and Women) of the Year issue, which include Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant, late-night talk show host Stephen Colbert and Gal Gadot, now known throughout the world as Wonder Woman. Which cover subscribers might receive in the mail is a toss-up, of course.
As I noted in the comments, 'Enjoy this award, Colin - it's not like you're getting Super Bowl MVP anytime soon!'
