People are walking away nationwide from billion dollar leagues like the NFL, NBA, MLB and MLS. Those leagues may survive the year. But the idiot woke athletes in leagues that have less revenue and rely heavily on ticket sales like the NWLS, USL and minor leagues may not survive.

Those athletes in smaller revenue leagues are cutting off their nose to spite their face. The NWLS was expanding and had started to move past the USA Women’s team antics at the World Cup. Now their woke crap has pissed off so many fans that I am not sure they can survive. Even in leagues that continue to play and try to be sensible, the athletes spout off crap on social media and lose season ticket holders.

I watched sports to be entertained, period. Bring politics into the game and I am no longer entertained. You will not get my money. These athletes need to pull their heads out of their a$$ and understand something, you are just another entertainer. If you could teach gorillas to play football or build robots to play in the NBA or drone cars in NASCAR, I would still watch if it was entertaining. I do not need you in my life there are other ways to be entertained. But these foolish sports entertainers think they actually matter! The think they are special so they get woke and then get broke.

There are so many outlets for entertainment these days the pot gets divvied up so many ways IF you have a goose laying the golden egg, WHY throw it away?
For political crappola?
For BLM? A marist attempt to throw America away?
Ive been to 35 foreign countries and 49 United States.
Go most anywhere in the world as I then when back I got on my hands and knees and Thanked GOD I am an American.
LeBron, go throughout China and see how the other 600 million poor live there.
Go to Germany where the sports fans throw bananas at black soccer players.
Get real folks

At this rate, they will probably want taxpayer money to support the teams.
