Green Bay Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy has a monthly column on the team website where he answers questions from fans and shareholders. It generally appears to be softball questions like any fun events planned for the shareholders meeting and the Paul McCartney concert was awesome, but for some reason this month's edition also featured an absolutely wild letter from a shareholder named Marilyn. She does not waste time getting to her point. Via Packers.com:
A question from Marilyn, a longtime Packer fan and shareholder:
"Out of the 11 players drafted by the Packers in the 2022 NFL Draft none are white. I also looked at the first two rounds of 64 and found that only 11 players drafted by all the teams were white. When I Googled the question of how many white overall were drafted, Google wouldn't answer it. I wonder why. I sure hope we aren't going to have to hear all the whining about equity, justice and all the markings on hats and shoes and all else. I suggest the NFL is actually racist for always choosing and highlighting black players. I am sure that is why you chose Love for a QB when he never should have been chosen. I hope the Packers will play the National Anthem and fly the flag high with the planes going over as they always have. Anyone who doesn't respect and honor our flag and our military heroes does not belong on the Packer roster. So for the 2022-2023 season, let's just play football and leave all the politics and racism out of the stadium."

Funny how certain industries are allowed to hire based on merit and profit.
Maybe ‘Marilyn’ is a trans-woman... then what?
We certainly do not watch any of that dreck and have not for years now.
Big Bang Theory and now, Young Sheldon, NCIS [original] are about it.
Any other tv is reality based type stuff like Alone or Naked and Afraid [tho not with woke participants bringing their crap to the wilds..we turn that off real quick.]
Its all disgusting and insulting, preachey and demeaning. No wonder so many ignore them.
USFL...
Bingo! Your right , I just wish meritocracy was pursued in all fields
I would much rather be a punter.
I think they are going to far which is why Hispanics are going to the republicans. Democrats only care about blacks, specifically black women. Good luck with that 12 percent at most.
Doncha wish that the REST of America worked this way?!
Could it be that many more concerned parents are discouraging their kids from football, over concern for long term injuries?
Kickers are family men - not players.
..and 90% of the wanted folks that get their faces on TV.
Then there are the ads where the black lady has a doofus looking white guy hangin’ on her.
Who doesn’t like to get slimed; Ellen?
When boys can now claim to be girls, when are blacks gonna be able to claim Whiteness without blowback?
Why?
They gonna pay 95% of the mortgage instead of the usual 91%?
Lol. So funny.
Because American football is racist! And gay!
