Why should they? All they care about is their 7 figure salary and the apparel endorsements. If they did take a stand, do you honestly think the colleges and universities would back the coach up? They invented this woke crap. People need to realize that college football is just as bad as the NFL and kick it to the curb also.

These angry young Trump haters...

- their misdirected rage
- their abject gullibility to fake news lies
- their blind servitude to the Democrat Party
- their shameful ignorance of history and civics
- their profound unreasonableness and confusion
- their brainless addiction to memes and platitudes

....are an indictment of our failed educational system.

This election will show who is capable of critical thinking, and who is not.

Sports for many is like an addiction. Once you are cured of it, you wonder why you ever bothered to begin with?

I was a big sports fan from 1976 until about 2006. The staws that broke the camel’s back was the blatant and obvious cheating in the Steeler/Hawks superbowl of 2006. Then the Kap thing took me from even watching the playoffs. Today, it’s all so laughably bad that I couldn’t possibly imagine ever watching a game again. And I used to fairly frequently go to games in person, and spend 2-3 days a week watching televised sports.

These fools today don’t realize that they are destroying their careers and an industry that came long before they were born. It will never come back, it’s dead. And good riddance.

I can’t wait until I am able to hire a former nfl quarterback to trim my lawn. But, then, i don’t want to support anti-American, unpatriotic losers.

For all the hatred thrown our way, for all the little childish names and labels we get called, for all the deliberate out of context statements, for the projected behavior and mindset, and for the riots and the blame for everything that doesn’t go their way....I actually enjoy the leftists tantrums.

by sports, I’m assuming football. Which means there’s an opening for more off-season baseball! Put me in coach!
