The NFL has evolved to become a tribute to large black men with poor self control. What these man-child actors want is what they get. What they want is respect that they have not earned. Oh, their football skills deserve respect, but for the most part, not the man child himself. Bling, ho’s, pot, and fistfights are not enough. They have to throw shade on their benefactors to show it is not about America, sports loving fans with jobs who can afford a ticket, or the owners, that make them famous for playing a game. They want it to be about them.
At the same time that the FNFL owners are pissing on our flag and disrespecting those who serve, they have no hesitation to demand our tax dollars to finance BILLION dollar stadiums for their own personal profit.
Let that sink in, people.
What is wrong with the NFL?
I don’t care. Same for Hollywood. They make their living by making people care about their product enough to spend discretionary funds to pay for it. When the customers stop caring, then you no longer matter.
To hell with them all.
Far better to look in your own neighborhood, maybe your own family, for your heroes. Or become one yourself.
It’s the same thing that’s wrong with America-too much prosperity for too long. It’s ruinous to human nature.
Fox just paid $600 million for the rights to broadcast 10 Thursday night games next year. 10 games. The NFL is fine. Let that sink in.
This is why I no longer watch NFL games period!
FACTS
In 2012 the NFL had an issue with Tim Tebow kneeling for each game to pray, they also had an issue with Tebow wearing John 3:16 as part of his eyeblack to avoid glare, and made him take it off.
In 2013 the NFL fined Brandon Marshall for wearing green cleats to raise awareness for people with mental health
disorders.
In 2014 Robert Griffin III (RG3) entered a post-game press conference wearing a shirt that said “Know Jesus Know Peace” but was forced to turn it inside out by an NFL uniform inspector before speaking at the podium.
In 2015 DeAngelo Williams was fined for wearing “Find the Cure” eye black for breast cancer awareness..
In 2015 William Gay was fined for wearing purple cleats to raise awareness for domestic violence. (Not that the NFL has a domestic violence problem...)
In 2016 the NFL prevented the Dallas Cowboys from wearing a decal on their helmet in honor of 5 Dallas Police officers killed in the line of duty.
In 2016 the NFL threatened to fine players who wanted to wear cleats to commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11.
So tell me again how the NFL supports free speech and expression, all of a sudden...
It seems quite clear based on these facts that the NFL has taken a position against any action by NFL players demonstrating RESPECT for any issue: For God, social causes such as mental health, cancer, domestic violence, for cops killed arbitrarily for being cops, for the Memory of 9/11..
But, they will allow demonstrations of DISRESPECT for our National Flag, our National Anthem, for America, and for the American People, if it will help mollify a particular Group and its supporters (such as BLM, and other leftists)
That is who and what the NFL has shown itself to be.
Hershel Walker said in Fox news that the NFL paid millions to get players to stand for the National Anthem. No wonder more took part in the disrespect as they wanted big money.
The NFL has been captured, via the halfwit Goodell, by the SJW Gramscian leftists. The NFL is now at war with its own core demographic.
“-————the days of Roger Staubach and Tony Dorsett gave way to Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith.”
In other words,class vs. no class.
.
Goodell.
They L O V E and openly promote depraved and perverted lifestyles, progressive feminism, black-racists and their radical, socialist/Communist/anarchist anti-American, anti white people, anti law enforcement, radical Communist "ONLY black lives matter" sjw agenda. They also L O V E lawlessness, thugs, and criminals and totally ignore their crimes just so long as these animals can play football.
I ask the question that I always do (sigh!). WHO EXACTLY is the NFL? Who makes these policy decisions? Is it R Goodell?
I am taking a pass on Sunday’s Super Bowl by touring the WW II Museum in New Orleans. With travel time to it, seeing it and back to our rented condo in Gulf Shores, I won’t see it. With the national anthem nonsense, I took a pass on watching most of this year’s NFL season.
A Medal of Honor winner from WWII will toss the coin. I still won’t watch.
Don’t forget the ultra-PC sports networks who enable their fame and/or notoriety.
>>This is why I no longer watch NFL games period!
>>FACTS
But your long list of offenses with dates shows that they still have a place in your head and you wish they would reform so you can come back.
I just hit a trigger moment where I said that I no longer care if they reform. They are dead to me.
Amen, hear, hear!
Those overpaid babies listened to Obama who told them they were oppressed.
