Bobby Valentine has never been afraid to immerse himself in the middle of noteworthy conversations. Wednesday night the approach had the former Red Sox manager - and current Sacred Heart University athletic director -- participating in the Stamford, Conn. protests of George Floyd's death.

The march -- which was led by a group called "March for Justice" -- marched through the streets of Valentine's hometown of Stamford, ending at the city's police department.

Once again I am proud to live in Stamford tonight was a very peaceful and respectful demenstation. Lead Stamford!! And then the rains came!! Stay safe!!
