Fans are interested in sports. They can get virtue signaling anywhere. Why waste a couple of hours in front of a tv set?

In general: the only way Biden/Harris wins is if the mass mail-in voter fraud attempts succeed.

Which I pray by the grace of God, they won’t.

Sports, yes. Social justice, no. We get preaching in church. Oh wait, the dictators have banned church attendance.

All professional sports were just hype anyway, no real value and countless hours wasted watching TV. Of course the mindlessness was part of the whole deal, and a pleasant escape for a few hours from reality.

Every since the kneeling started I watched less & less sports. Really only cared for football & NASCAR. Minor league baseball was fun. But all this woke nonsense and disrespect for our flag, our country, our national anthem.. I am so done with it all.

Now I make fun of people who mention it, ask them if they are part of the 6 people still watching, ridicule it, demean it. Whatever I can do to make them feel like complete and utter morons for still wasting their life on something so stupid and meaningless.

Distractions in your life. Highly paid slaves of WHITE PRIVILEGED owners. They better produce and push the demands or they are off the plantation. Don’t DISS yourself, bro.

Everybody has to serve someone, even us non-privileged Americans.

How many hours of life have WE wasted on being programmed. (#me too) I haven’t watched any teeeveee in 8+ years. It’s YOUR life. The win/loss, home team/opponent, red pill/blue pill, redstate/bluestate keep you divided psychologically. Don’t get me wrong...athletes work hard...and you can relive your days of playing sports...probably in the best shape of your life. When enjoying their hard-worked efforts is attached with a programming message...well then it’s something different. I stopped watching pro football after the vaunted “wardrobe malfunction”. I sent the NFL an email back in the day. It was easy because the Detroit Lions also sucked. Look at their QB Matt Stafford and recent brain surgeried wife Kelly’s message.

Play-caller? Virtue signalers of the WHITE PRIVILEGED sort. BTW I haven’t watched the Lions in over 20+ years. I was a big fan but the losing somehow stressed me out. It would ruin a good Sunday in the fall and carry over to workday Monday when other co-workers complained about them also. My Sundays have been great ever since. Other things can stress my life out. It’s my life. I try to enjoy it.

YMMV

Posts BUMP! I glanced at a tv while eating in a bar/restaurant last night and it looked like cardboard cutout fans in the stands. LOL! WTF?

With the Seattle Mariners on a 7-game losing streak I can see why. Horrible to watch!

After playing baseball and football in high school I’ve always been a Sports fan.
After ESPN began pushing their liberal bias I canceled my cable.
Since the stoopids in sports of all kinds feel it necessary to besmirch my country they can go to hell.
I refuse to watch the N.F.L. N.B.A. M.L.B. or any other sport that feels a need to support socialism or show disrespect for the country that has given so many so much.
Try traveling around the world some and see how bad other places are. Maybe get out of your folks basement.

Stopped watching MLB and the NFL. My friend who likes the NBA said he turned it off with all the crap they had.

In the end, they’ll just all decide to stop playing the national anthem at all. But still, these idiots will find a way to take a knee. They’ll call it a compromise, but it’ll be the eventual final nail in their coffin.

I have been a really big fan of the MLB for all my life, but really like the idea of a brand new league rising up from the ashes.

Perhaps what these sports need is what the DNC has been preaching - diversity, then the woke crowd could tune in. Isn’t that what their campaign is about - diversity? Why pick the best and brightest when diversity is the answer.

Great news. The lot of them are quisling scumbags. The quicker they go out of business the better.

It is really amazing just how easy it has been to not watch those whining’ kneeling ingrates. They should have been taught not to bite the hand that feeds them. Not many people get paid $millions for playing a kid’s game. I have a feeling that number will decrease.
