Post Conversation Clay Travis @ClayTravis I doubt the NFL would do it, but it would be a strong move to support freedom of speech by canceling next Friday’s game in Brazil over the banning of X in the country & playing Eagles-Packers back home in the US. US reporters, teams & players won’t be able to Tweet from Brazil. Last edited 3:12 PM · Aug 30, 2024 · 1.1M Views

Cancel Yes.

Professional football has no business playing on Thursday.

Nor playing on another continent.

Nor playing exclusively on a streaming platform.

But the NFL is no longer an American game.

It is subservient to the globalist totalitarian one world gubmint.

Anyone else remember, the NFL pulled a Super Bowl out of Arizona, because at the time, Arizona didn’t have a state holiday for Martin Luther King?

If the powers that be in the NFL feel strongly enough about this, they would pull the game.

I just read that wild fires are rendering the air quality as dangerous and there is a possibility of cancellation.

The NFL believes everything should be as expensive as possible. They live out that belief every single day!

PC NFL won't have a problem, because it's NOT the USA.

We must self-flagellate and treasonously hate the USA, and undermine it at all costs so it can be more communist. Which Brazil already does to some extent, so that's fine.

It's only when communist “speech” is abridged that they protest and kneel.

The NFL is a spineless organization. Of course they’ll play.

MLB pulled the All Star game out of Atlanta because they didn’t like the Georgia voting law.

The NFL, an organization known for its speech codes is now going to take a stand for free speech?

They should all just take a knee.

At least this time it would be for a real instead of a fake one supported by any facts.
