Bonfire Of The Vanities.
I have a better idea, play the effing game and stfu about politics.
To paraphrase a famous quote from the 60’s, “Suppose they gave a Super Bowl and nobody came?”
FUMB
The NFL is killing itself. The concussion problem will not be the end of football......the self-centeredness and egos of the players will drive the last nail in the coffin. We will see who else feels the PC need to support the egotists on each team. I for one won’t be watching much this year, if this plays out like I think it might.
Then what are those black players qualified for ?
And if they don’t comply they will be labeled racist. If the owners put their collective foot down and warn the players, they too will be labeled. This will kill the league.
This is what appeasing the race baiters has brought this country too.
When they have chased off the last fan, they will have to get real jobs.
I was done with them last year.
The league could have stopped this if they wanted.
They chose not to and I chose not to watch them anymore.
I’ll help with your protest.
I will not watch nor be present during any game on transmitted over any medium or at a game.
I further swear off any beer what so ever.
This I will do for the entire season, post season, playoffs, super bowl or any other event including interviews.
Win-Win...
They can do as they please. I do not watch it or follow it.The more they insult their fans, the more their fans buy the tickets. If that is what they want to do. Have at it!
Since Mister Goodell chooses to avoid taking most deserved action against you, you and he will weaken, if not largely ruin the once great NFL.
Take a hike pal. To Venezuela. OR Zimbabwe.
Oh yeah, it’s not enough - drive your sport into the ground.
Watch the college FB ratings go through the roof, along with sports that are no so BLM friendly.
I have been debating cutting the NFL out of my life for the last two years. Its the off-season and the Kaepernick BS seemed to be dying out.
If it continues, I’m done - and I will tell everyone I know exactly why.
I have already decided what an extra 19 Sundays of free time would mean in my life.
Didn’t watch NFL last year.
Won’t this year.
Like the Google memo, this is not promoting any actual conversation or change. It’s just a chance for virtue signaling. Those in the Ctrl-Left pretend they are special because they are “woke”. Anyone who engages in “conversation” but does not agree 100% and use their exact approved words when agreeing will be destroyed. Do they actually think that insulting sacred symbols is an effective start to an open conversation, or is the goal to offend so they can pretend to be victims?
Were any of America’s enemies on the left influenced by the Google memo? Nope. They dismissed it as hate speech that created a hostile work environment, and they used that characterization to fire the fool who wrote it. It doesn’t matter whether the memo was 100% right, 100% wrong, or in between; that outcome would have been the same regardless. No opinions were changed, although some skeptics might take the warning and keep quiet on that topic no matter how egregious the leftist abuses and diversity training may become.
Were any real Americans influenced by Colin K? Nope. They dismissed his nonsense as rude, disrespectful, treasonous, and politicizing what was supposed to be recreation. It doesn’t matter whether Colin and BLM were 100% right, 100% wrong, or in between; the outcome of his disrespect to our flag, our anthem, our country, and our ancestors who died for freedom would have been the same regardless. No opinions were changed. Apparently, some football players are not smart enough to take the hint and just keep quiet. If their careers disappear, along with the entire NFL, I’m okay with that.
Hey Bennett, suppose we cut off all your ticket and TV revenues, boycott all games, and you and your buddies can go try to work at the local car wash??!! if you actually did anything with your free college education, maybe you will have an alternative career, but a lot of you guys will be out on the streets.
Has not learned the first rule of holes.
