“The people in these organizations live in a bubble that’s about to pop.”

At our firm they had an outing at a WBNA game to support gay rights. If you attended it probably was a positive mark noted for future promotion.

It is hard to show your support yet be invisible.

Putting hand on your heart and standing shows support for the National Anthem.

AssPress headline writer must have missed that.

How can it be an exhibition game if no one is there to see it?

Just take lots of little steps to stop subsidizing the enemy.

Don’t buy their products or services.

Harass them with Better Business Bureau complaints (non political, can be fake, have fun with it!).

Get creative.

There are millions of ways to get even.

What about all the victims of riots, looting, knockout, etc.? Many are dead because of it. That’s why the political slogan of BLM is an oxy moron.

No doubt. The pressures to conform to corporate political views are very real. Liberals are not afraid to push their agenda in ways that coerce and intimidate. In fact, they see it as a duty.

People watch sports as a diversion from the “noise” of everyday life.

HAMMER, NAIL, HEAD!

Yeah, but did all of the black athletes sit in the back of the third bus behind the “colored” sign?

The definition of an exhibition game, is a game which doesn’t count in the regular season standings. A game can be an exhibition game even if no one is there to see it.

Exactly.

Not sure if I’m departing from the consensus, but I see this as a good thing. Standing, Heart, Undivided, right?

And this might be a good form to adopt if necessary for youth athletics that will soon confront the controversy.

Hey sports, we spectators do not need you.
Sponsors will lower their payouts to you cause old men like me will refuse to EVER watch your crappola again.
