Seems the only sport to be immune to the Marxists is Rodeo.

Satan steals, kills, and destroys everything it can get its paws on. (Don’t kid yourselves, this is not just a physical or political war.)

American sports may or may not survive this, but they will never be the same.

The NHL paused their playoff schedule for 2 days, thinking this will boost their support among blacks.

It will do nothing of the kind, most blacks didn’t watch hockey before and this will do nothing to change that.

Empty & useless actions that only ticked off the regular hockey fans. Way to go, NHL!!

Maybe I’m missing something, but playing games in empty arenas makes it pretty damn easy for everyone to #WalkAwayFromSports.

These idiots want to bar the blue line and rename it the black line.

Get Woke,
Go broke.
All these spoiled prima donnas’ who are supporting this BLM bull shit beware cause many life long sports fans like ME love our country much more than we do sports.
MLB, NHL, MLB, etc can all kiss my hairy white ass cause I will not turn on your crap.
Advertisers will pull their support or greatly reduce said support.

Paid athletes can’t boycott. They can either walk out or strike. Fans can.

It’s like the NYT, CNN They keep spouting antiamericanism causing them to lose customers and revenue yet they don’t stop. They lose massive revenue and stay in business. Who do they actually work for? Who pays them?

This Pro Sports (NHL/NBA/NFL/MLB/MLS) hiatus/strike because of the Kenosha (WI) Jason Blake shooting raises some interesting points.

1) Will these job actions be repeated for every Blue-on-Black injury incident (Blake was not killed!)? If so, how can anyone plan a schedule?

2) There can be no doubt that these sports are a profit-seeking enterprise, they say it themselves. So, when you allow the workers to dictate the politics and operations, why is it the paying spectators fault (implicit in the media PR) for the drop in revenues.

3) The current #1 issue in all of this stoppage is not sports but politics. If Joe Biden wins will this all go back to 'normal'? Of course not, this is a revolution, not an election! So why expect the paying public to return?

So now, anyone for watching Division II sports?

When people see what is happening on the streets of America at the hands of BLM, sports teams who support them are the last thing we care about.
