Professional sports are dead to me except for the UFC. There’s no going back now. I’m actively rooting for them to collapse into financial ruin. Let the overpaid morons find real jobs to make a living. These players are brainless if they can’t see what they’re doing to the game that pays them millions. It’s like they are determined to destroy it no matter what.

Wouldn’t this be the systematic racism that Democrats helped to create and strove to perpetuate all of those years?

There is no incentive for many black women to refuse sex because they might get pregnant. They have big Daddy government that ups the free stuff every time they give birth. That is why the men don’t worry about running around. LBJ who hated black people can get a thanks for this mess.

I gotta wonder how Jacob Blake’s victim will feel when she sees his name celebrated on the uniform of a millionaire sports thug.

Promiscuity is the rule among Bonos and Africans. Fathers are not required in the African village where the grandmothers bear responsibility for raising kids.

It doesn’t matter in the Village if your uncle is actually your father or if your cousin is actually your sister

Yet, they continue to have fans. Even on FR. I guess for some people, they won’t wake up until they’re personally required to take a knee before they watch the game.

No need to make it mandatory. The pressure to conform will be enormous.

Some will not wake up until they have to take a knee with a pistol pointed at the back of their head.

If I were in the Negro, Felons, and Liberals company, I’d wear “White People” because were are judged by the color of our skin.

agreed.

Police kill more whites than blacks, but minority deaths generate more outrage

Oh, it’s been found. Throughout the entire black community directed toward whites.

Q: If the NFL holds a protest and no one comes to the game, does a bear still s**t in the woods?

As usual, a professional (?) sports league violates their own rules for the money. Rule 5, article 8, in the NFL rule book, absolutely says this can’t be done. Hey, it’s their rules. They can break them whenever they want, I guess. I’m an ex-official for National Federation and the NCAA and I can’t seem to take the NFL serious as a sport as long as they don’t. And as long as they, or any other sport does this, without even changing the rule to do it, they just further show their greed and lack of integrity. And they want respect?

Golf has come up with the phrase, “Drive for show, putt for dough.” The NFL has shortened it to “Show for dough.” Seems they think they improved upon it....for them. Vultures!

When a privileged HAfrican such as the Chiefs’ Pat Mahomes, raised by a pro athlete dad and white mom/stepmom, presumes to speak for BLM just because it’s cool and his GF and BFFs say so, I’m over the NFL.

What are Drew Brees and Mahomie most afraid of, being on the wrong side of the cool social issue, or having their knees ruined when the OL disagrees?

“””””””””Go ahead fools. Not too many people will see them.”””””””””

Think not? Watch. Every cameraman in sports TV is being advised right now to zoom in on those names at any time possible. Especially when they are in a huddle. You’ll see every name you can think of the entire game...

I won’t see it, can’t stand football and wouldn’t watch to begin with.

I would watch in one specific case. If any one football player decided to put the names of black underage Chicago VICTIMS on his helmet, I’d watch and I’d root for him.

Natalia Wallace - 7
Vernado Jones - 14
Amaria JJones - 13
Mekhi James - 3

Just a short few of them. I’m willing to bet not one footbal player can tell you any of their names.

3 year old kid hit by a stray bullet. Do you think ONE football player has said ONE WORD about that? NOPE...And there have been a couple who were only a year old.

Not a word from BLM, not a word from any celebrity or football player. The only people speaking up for them are a small few ordinary folks like me whose comments will be seen by only an extremely small slice of the world’s population...maybe a few hundred people will see my posts here and on Breitbart. Not even .0001% of the Texas population, not to mention the US...

Nobody is speaking for these kids. Nobody...it’s disgusting. I copied a few names into a text file so I could get them into a few posts like this. Not one celebrity has even looked for them. The ones with a huge megaphone won’t speak.

And they call me deplorable...

Amazing isn’t it? An entire league trying to sack itself.
