The professional football league is about to start its new season soon, and you know what that means — MORE POLITICAL LECTURES! (Okay, fantasy football, but still…)

While some are still bleating about Colin Kaepernick not playing the league is still dealing with the fallout from his protesting. With ratings dropping, and discontent between ownership and activist-minded athletes, one solution thought upon was the creation of a social justice committee, comprised of owners and players. This committee would address and influence any number of social causes.

It was recently announced that one member would be stepping down, Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross. Initially, it sounded as if Ross would be focusing on work with his own non-profit organization. However committee member Chris Long, recently retired from playing, spoke with Sports Illustrated and let it slip that Ross had in fact been pushed out of the group.

Your local High School football season starts soon too. Cheaper tickets, closer parking, better food.

And those too overly woke get laughed off the field.

Woop Woop Woop! Go Raiders!

NFL fans coudl stop all this kneeling crap if they simply walked out of the stadiums whenever a maggot kneels- and tell the ticket agents they will NOT be back-

The NFL would quickly change their position on this UnAmericana act of kneeling

social justice committee???

I propose the first order of business should be to make ALL Tickets and Parking FREE for ALL Games, so the financially disadvantaged aren’t excluded from the games.

Chris Simms (son of Phil) is a flat-out Communist.

agreed- all it would take is walking off once, and not buying tickets to 2-3 games or so, and the NFL would quickly back down on allowing their athletes to voice their idiotic protests on the world stage- but i guess they can’t even make that small sacrifice

Even folks with season passes could sure to get the money back for those few games, claiming that the NFL was allowing an atmosphere that was unfriendly and not conducive to the sport’s venue or something (I’m sure some inventive lawyer could find a way to sue to get the money back)

What’s the NFL?

Oh, that’s right,they are the hate filled, anti-American, anti-flag, anti-national anthem, anti-Military, anti-Law Enforcement, racist “only black lives, and perverted lifestyles matter” PC Pink organization that our entire family stopped watching years ago after they came right out and told us they HATE both us, and our country.

The nfl is dead! They just don’t realize it yet.
