The NFL will have messages in support of Black Lives Matter and racial justice such as “End Racism” and “It Takes All of Us” displayed on players’ helmets and on playing fields during the opening games of the 2020 season.

Names of some black victims will also be stamped on players’ helmets.

“The NFL informed clubs today of plans to amplify its social justice initiatives, including helmet decals and signage in end zones for kickoff games and club home openers,” NFL reporter Tom Pelissero wrote on Twitter.

I wonder if that would include David Dorn?

A very good point. I suspect it won't.

Those people just doesn’t understand the mechanics of
Black Lives Murder.

Racist, mostly White, liberals, in perpetual control of
dense urban city populations work diligently to guarantee
mayhem and horror and black on black daily murders, and
then convince the survivors that it is all conservative
republicans that are causing it.

So just like MLB, put a BLM logo out for the opening game (or series in the case of MLB) then by the next game it’s gone.

This book is entitled "An Idiot's Guide to How to Lose What's Left of Your Fans".

Can't wait to see the Fall ratings.

Because no one can speak to systemic racism better than black millionaire athletes.

They should change the name from NFL to BLM, and get out of America.

But will the cucks still flock to worship their heroes? If so, you have to wonder if there is a line at all ... ever.

I guess they have completely forgot why people pay money to go see professional sports. It’s entertainment. A time when people can forget about problems in every day life...a time to forget about politics. I hope the NFL, NBA and MLB all crash and burn.

I thought the brain injury issue would eventually kill the NFL. I had no idea the NFL was going to commit suicide so much sooner than that.

Once you have been dumb enough to be a professional sports fan, you will always be a professional sports fan. I can almost garuntee each and every one of you past fans will be glued to the tube, watching the them make fools of you, and sucking all the advertisements into you minds. If this were not the case, they would be out of business, and they are not.

Being a pro sports fan has been low class forever, and now it is seditious, yet the business thrives.

I have no problem with “End Racism” and “It takes all of us”. Those are positive messages.

I don’t like the BLM stuff, because it’s not about black lives, it is about a specific political organization. The NFL should not be endorsing political entities.

Not that I care, I haven’t watched football in a while, and now “my local team” doesn’t even have a name anymore.
