We need to start another football league, racing forum, basket ball teams. Don’t pay them millions, just make it like it used to be.

I attend a few pro golf tournament each year, both mens and ladies. If they go political I am gone. Same with MLB. The first time they ask me to “rise” for some political gimmick I am out of there.

They’re working on that, check out the rape statistics ( not that theyve been released recently, the numbers tell a story completely at odds with the narrative and they cant have that).

Used to be a BIG 10 fan (Go Bucks). After the declaration by the Iowa Hawkeye FB Team, my give a damn meter is broken.
When they start in with the superlatives on racism, there is no reconciliation. When everything is Racism, nothing is Racism. Buh Bye.

College football is the breeding ground for all the NFL kneelers. It’s where they learn this crap. Get rid of it also.

Never thought of Bubba as a token until he has just proven it.

Evidently NASCAR thinks they do.Or more to the point the NASCAR leadership believes that they can abuse and disrespect their fans ever how they please and that will still come cowering back to them with their tails between their legs begging,”Please master give me another one”. Time will tell if they are right.

And how many people here will still watch?

For more than I would like to imagine. We still have people here fully supporting the NFL, NBA, Division 1 College sports, etc. It's pathetic.

Id like to believe that but once they managed to shove even the tranny issue down people’s throats, even to the point of opposing harpy feminists who at least know what a woman is, I just don’t believe that anymore. We are not winning the culture war. I believe that theyre already trying to get “tolerance” of pedophilia sneaked onto the agenda.

If there’s no NFL, no need for NCAAF.

And NCAAF is still a cash cow fir colleges and unis.

My bet is, since the institutions are already under incredible financial pressures, this crap won’t be going on in the NCAAF. The players and the institutions have too much too lose, and all involved have already shown they’re disinclined to put their money where their mouths are.

Very pathetic. Its hard to believe that watching these illiterate thugs could be that important to anyone. You don’t even have to be an activist, just passively don’t watch.

“We need to start another football league...”

I believe that has been tried.

And I don’t believe that we’re losing the culture war because they’ve managed to gain the hearts and minds of a majority, its because they have all the megaphones and the power to make dissenters pay. Soon it won’t be good enough to just say nothing, they will demand oaths of allegiance, so to speak, from everyone. They’re already doing that with important and highly visible entities and people.

Not under these circumstances. Let the NFL kneel and grovel, people want to be entertained, not lectured. Beside, the game has become so brutal it’s not worth watching. It used to be a game. People just like to get together, have tailgate parties and cheer for their local teams.

Try it again.

We don’t have to “take it.” We can choose not to attend these events. I have chosen not to attend NFL games.

After this week, they lost a half century of my being a fan.

I will try to watch the Anthem of the first race where they have All-American spectators. It should be epic.
