Brainwashing accomplished! The Catholic Church seeks donations for Catholic universities......don’t give.

... protesting racial inequality...

They want equality? All they have to do is behave like civilized human beings, stop blaming whitey for their own shortcomings (70%+ illegitimacy rate, for example) and insist that their brethren do the same. And in cases where real racism is involved, lay out the facts without accusing all whites of being the same.

“Georgetown”.
Yup, thought that after I posted.
Now, the question is which “Catholic” university gets the vote for being least Catholic?

They are as “Catholic” as the current Pope.

These cheap virtue signalers were not kneeling before the Eucharist but kneeling before Kaepernick. Just another reason to hate Notre Dame.

Just taking their cues from the Pope.....

I’m sure it wasn’t to pray.

So these are just students and not players...Mmmeeeehhhhh, who cares.

I know Brian Kelly would completely lose his $hit if one his players pulled a stunt like that...

Really, who cares, some fans get naked and streak across the field...Some kneel.

I could not despise Note Dame and their mutt president Father Jenkins any more. I can’t wait to see Alabama kick their teeth in. I hope they bring Obama in the cheer and kneel with these turds.

They are a fake Catholic school that damages the imagine of my Church just at a time that we need allies not back stabbers.

Jenkins had 83 Catholics arrested for praying the Rosary in protest of him giving Obama an honorary JD. They were on the grounds of the University of Our Lady!! He then REFUSED to drop the charges for years - 3 of the group were priests of which 2 were of Jenkins same order!! One old priest died before the despicable Jenkins finally dropped the charges.

He also used student activity funds to send 4 little snowflakes to a pro-gay marriage rally in DC and maintains a club for gay/ lesbians which completely pushes aside the Catholic Church doctrine of promoting a near occasion of sin.

There is plenty more, but the bottom line is that I didn’t say Notre Dame is a Catholic university THEY do and Jenkins and the rest of those mutts in South Bend are LIARS.

...the 700 post season “bowl games.”

"Bowl eligibility" just doesn't have the same panache it used to have, does it? I grew up in the era of the Rose Bowl, Orange Bowl, Cotton Bowl, and Sugar Bowl. There were a few second-tier bowl games (Gator, Tangerine, Sun, Bluebonnet) but nobody paid any mind to those. It wasn't a true bowl game if it wasn't on New Year's Day.

Overexposure ruins everything.

I Told You So....

All these FRers righteously turning on NFL while stating they will watch only college.

Yup, I knew it would happen.

You are naive if you think “collegiates” (which they are not, believe me, I work with them) won’t pull the same thing. Really, even while you complain about colleges and alleged anti-American prejudice, you think guys playing a mere game won’t “take a knee” and you can watch them with impunity. Foolishness.

Great. Now the little college douchebags are doing it.
Will have to scratch watching college ball too along with NFL.

I actually rooted for FSU for the first time ever last weekend.

A lot of good that did.

I am so excited watching our new freshman QB. I don’t like any FL teams or Notre Dame. I am Catholic and lots of parishioners and priests root for them. Not me. It’s been fun to watch Clemson this season. Hope they go all the way.

College football ratings were doing far better than the NFL. Do they really want to go there? If they lose half their viewers, where are they going to get the money for all those perks that the football staff (and players) enjoy?

“Was it not there that the faculty hid any religious icons when Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch quota baby visited?”

I think that was Georgetown, a Jesuit school.
