NFL To Write ‘End Racism’ And ‘It Takes All Of Us’ In End Zones
Breitbart ^ | 9-1-2020 | Dylan Gwinn

It was reported last week that the NFL would allow social justice messaging on their helmets. Now, we learn that the NFL will put social justice messaging in the end zones as well.

On a Tuesday afternoon conference call, Commissioner Roger Goodell said that the league will write “End Racism” “It Takes All of Us,” in the end zones this season.

“The NFL stands with the black community, the players, clubs and fans confronting systemic racism. We will not relent in our work,” Goodell said.

The NFL made headlines last week when several teams canceled or postponed practices amid the backlash over the officer-involved shooting of Jacob Blake.

“End racism”

Which racism are they talking about? The democrats racism against white people or the racism of people who believe anytime a white cop kills someone black it’s racist?

“it takes all of us”. Nope. I don’t care and won’t be involved in their marxist dreams. Maybe another black thug will get killed and they can continue to not play.

Rush spoke about this yesterday. Outlined all the BLM/Antifa/SJW Virtue-Signaling the NFL plans to shove down the throats of all who watch.
The key point is, all those who watch. This family, almost all of whom were die-hard football fans have vowed to not watch a single moment of any game.

Yeah, speaking of “end zones” let’s hope this will end the ticket sales and TV viewership bonanzas of leftist NFL teams pushing Marxism.

End the support. Like you and I have.

the huge majority of the NFL income is from advertising and how much advertisers pay for time during a game is determined by audience size.

I will be very interested in seeing the numbers when the season starts in just a few days.

So a touchdown into one of these end zones is worth how much?

At least 1000 points.

Or given the salaries of these ‘black slaves’, 1 million points.

And then, does “End Racism” or “It Takes All of Us,” count more points?

Oh, Oh. I am so EXCITED about these upcoming games.

NOT NOT NOT
/SSSSSSSSSSSSS

Commentator: “You can see in the replay he has firm possession of the football as his foot hit the E of End Racism, which is a good idea for this racist USA to do, if you ask me.”

I think sports in general are on their way out Oh they will always be around in one form or another but we’ll never go back to the old days where the entire community turned out for the ball game. I notice that the big fans I know tend to be skewed older. Younger guys are still fans but increasingly fans in the ‘girly’ sense where they are enthusiastic when everyone around them is enthusiastic and may catch a very big game but are otherwise casual fans at best. More and more theres just so much other diversions like blockbuster movies and tv and realistic video games where you actually participate. The finisher is when we come up with practical VR/AR. Its not helping when they are catering to people who spend their time posting to xojane and twitter instead of their primary audience.

Someone needs to set up a system that finds out who advertises during the NFL games and notifies everyone who wants to boycot their products.

How about “We pander” on the 50 yard line? I think that would be appropriate.
