Enough!

Posted on 09/10/2020 5:31:29 PM PDT by fhayek

I tried. I love sports. I love football. I figured there would be virtue signalling. The slogans. The George Floyd tee shirts on the anthem singers. The commercials. On and on. Finally, I thought they were going to play a game and then Chris Collingworth started to get on his soapbox....

That was it. Enough already. I turned it off. I don't care anymore...

My Dad and his sister were president and vice president of their senior class Tuscaloosa High 1950 something. Both graduates of Bama. I’m done. Sad.

Thanks for sharing. Maybe next time keep your tantrums on Facebook?

I almost walked away two years ago from the NFL, but this time I’m pretty sure I’m done. They just keep ramping up this anti-American, anti-white BS, with no sign of letup. Football is an addiction for so many, including myself. After watching for decades, it just becomes incorporated into your life. But I can’t see how I can subject myself to this anymore and keep my dignity.

Most of the black players are going to go along with this as it’s part groupthink; part they just plain hate white people. The white players will go along with it as they want to keep their checks coming in and don’t want to get the crap beaten out of them in the locker room by the black players.

Drew Brees, instead of standing up and telling them all to go pound sand, folded like a lawn chair. The entire Bears organization threw Urlacher under the bus for calling out the NBA idiots.

I hope dozens of BLMers run out onto the field in the middle of a play and make a spectacle of the whole thing. Why would the NFL stop them at this point? After all, it’d be racist to do so.

I watch dirt track racing almost exclusively now. Unbelievable action and fun. You’d get beat with a 2x4 for taking a knee or protesting the flag at a dirt track race. It’s Americana at its finest.

Who knew football would be the catalyst for so many men getting red pilled. Guess that could be considered a silver lining?

Alcoholics throw down the bottle in a fit of rage against it, sure this is the last time, only to pick it up again.

It's time to admit to yourself that you have a sports problem.

Ok, I know it was only one day, but when the Indy 500 was held a couple of weeks ago, there was no kneeling, there were hands over hearts as the National Anthem played, and there were TWO flyovers by the Thunderbirds, once for the end of the Anthem, and once to announce, “Gentlemen, start your engines!” It was pretty cool.

My wife had the remote and said “, oh look, there’s football on tonight,” when they were all lined up for Not the National Anthem. I went ino the other room for a phone call, came back in, she says “aren’t you going to watch?” Nah, not interested.

Who is going to watch? #NotMe.
Turned on some stupid pet videos.

Of all the things the Left has done and all they are going to try to do, it is their destruction of sports that ranks high.

I have always loved sports. I have always thought that is is another type of societal glue that bound societies together.

I have loved football since the first game I watched when I returned to the states back in 1972. for the last 25 or 30 years, my best friend who went into the Navy with me at the age of 18 have gotten together nearly every weekend during football season to watch.

We had a huge circle of friends, had great parties, went on road trips, just loved and adored the sport. Had so much fun, high spirits, an excuse as an adult to be a kid for a few hours a week, yell and scream and get theatrical.

It was fun. Great, harmless fun.

The Left has destroyed football, and all sports for me. Those Rat Bastards have managed to ruin and spoil it for me. May they rot in Hell.
