Used to go skiing on stupid bowl Sunday. Knees aren’t up to it any more.

I have no problem with the messaging, except that racism is found everywhere.

I don't want to see any of it. Why do we have to have all of these virtue signalling, left-coded, longhouse messages shoved down our throats all of the time?

I just want to watch a football game.

I have three quotes here by Thomas Sowell who is one of my favorites.

The word 'racism' is like ketchup. It can be put on practically anything - and demanding evidence makes you a 'racist.'

The sad and tragic fact is that the civil rights movement, despite its honorable and courageous past, has over the years degenerated into a demagogic hustle, promoting the mindless racism they once fought against.

Racism is not dead, but it is on life support -- kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as 'racists'

The white boys are going to be so disappointed. They were hoping to shed a little white guilt cheering for the black men.

“Chefs” in one end zone; “Elgses” in the other.

"league officials recently changed one of the slogans...in the back of an end zone from “End Racism” to “Choose Love.”

How about "CHOOSE LIFE"?

For many years now, we’ve been seeing the subtle (and not so subtle) Oprahfication and feminizing and wokeness of the NFL.

I don’t understand people who call themselves a Conservative, yet line the owner’s pockets by buying officially licensed NFL items such as caps and jerseys... Jeez.

I love Thomas Sowell as well.

And the late Walter Williams was good also.
