Jason Whitlock says that when the Chiefs and the Texans lined up prior to the game in a show of “unity,” fans booed, and booing was the right thing to do.
The nearly 17,000 fans in the stands at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City had no interest in seeing the two teams filled with privileged millionaires take the field to posture in support of Black Lives Matter. The booing was long and loud during the players’ “unity” demonstration.
The “unity” lineup was accompanied by Black Lives Matter slogans scrolling across the scoreboard and the jumbotrons.
Many in the sports media were furious that the booing rang out so loud and long during the stunt. But Outkick’s Jason Whitlock said that the booing was the right thing to do because “Chiefs fans aren’t stupid.”
So, why the booing? According to Whitlock:
Mystery solved. Chiefs fans aren’t stupid. They’re informed, passionate and fearless. They love Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid, Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill. But they love their country more than the foolish players who have swallowed Black Lives Matter’s ideology, propaganda and vision for America.
Social media and the athletes addicted to Twitter and Instagram define BLM as a long-overdue fight for racial equality. Many Americans see BLM for exactly what it is — a clever disguise for Marxists and anarchists who seek to destroy American freedoms — and those citizens are growing more comfortable expressing their disdain for the BLM movement.
The booing you heard rejected BLM, not unity. The booing you heard rejected the rioting, looting, violence and in-your-face harassment associated with the BLM movement.
Whitlock went on to excoriate those fools who claim that the three-month wave of protests are justified because they have been “mostly peaceful.”

Children’s sports I understand, Pro sports not at all
Prostitute Gladiators, getting paid King’s Ransoms for performing a child’ game.
What an utter waste of resources
I wish it were true. I’m gone again after watching last year when the nonsense seemed to have abated.
But the NFL has done the calculation, and they think it’s better to lose some fans then have a huge labor problem. So they have completely doubled down on this. I doubt if they will change their minds if the loses stay in the current range.
The MFL should wear their kneeling black pampers, with a pant load full of color, with gay pride.
This would be a good time to start an alternative league like the PFL. Patriot Football League.
Priveleged millionaires who are otherwise mostly qualified to haul trash or pick cotton, should kiss the ground daily and be thankful that they are in this country making millions playing a kids game, instead of being in Africa eating sparse bowls of grain and running from mad elephants and hungry lions.
“ The “unity” lineup was accompanied by Black Lives Matter slogans scrolling across the scoreboard”
Did they include this slogan?
“Burn it down!”
>>>Booing Fans at Chiefs Game Love Country More Than ‘Foolish’ Pro-BLM Players<<<
Then why were they in the stadium?
Not sure but they were able to voice their opinions. I’m glad it angered the left.
The only acceptable answer would be to protest then riot. Let’s burn their house down. Oh we paid for their house damn
You want to end all this? Before the national anthem, put a picture of President Donald J Trump on the jumbotron, then announce, “Please rise for the National Anthem, or kneel before Trump. “
How many fans walked out of the stadium after the booing was done?
FU NFL...and I think 17k fans as reported is yet another damn MSM lie.
17,000 fans in the stands? That’s about 17,000 too many. I wouldn’t pay a dime.
exactly. Stop booing and stop going. Life is better without pro sports.
bump
I understand that a large percentage of perpetual season ticket holders are not going to renew them. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. They made their beds (the pro athletes and NFL) and now they must lie in them.
Looking forward to them playing for minimum wage.
BOYCOTT THE NFL!!!
I’m not sure they would have a labor problem. There are plenty of football players out there who would love to play pro. Fire the drama queens, recruit and hire patriotic players (for a LOT less money, no doubt), start playing again and the fans will absolutely LOVE it! Everybody wins.
They should have WALKED OUT, instead of just Booing.
