NFL’s ‘black’ and ‘white’ anthems will only promote divisiveness
The New York Post ^ | July 24, 2021 | Phil Mushnick

Goodell’s plan is to include two pregame national anthems at marquee events — the traditional one, which I guess now is explained as the “white” anthem, and the new addition and largely unknown “black” national anthem.

To think that Goodell is dense enough to believe that such a separate-but-equal public relations scheme will promote good will as opposed to divisiveness.

Why doesn’t Goodell have NFL stadiums further divide by race? Have race-specific entrances, water fountains, concession stands, parking lots, rest rooms? His anthem plan resurrects such long-gone racist history."

As usual, Phil Mushnick gets it. The woke, antiracist crowd is racist. Get woke, go broke.

AHHH, play them both at the same time, yeah that’ll work. Have the crowd sing, too, no one knows the words to both.

Are we allowed to kneel for the black anthem?

What a GREAT idea. Let's extend it to other areas of society...

I demand a German-American anthem to respect my dad’s side! There are quite a few more German Americans than black Americans. I demand a and a Canadian-American anthem to respect my mom’s side.

Before long, we’ll have three hours of tribal anthems and no time to play the game. Which is fine with me since we won’t have to watch the pampered, rich whining “victims” toss a ball around.

They have already killed their Golden Goose, through sheer stupidity.

It is unsurprising that they would continue to entrench themselves in their utterly inane policies with even more dumbness.

A Black National Anthem must mean there’s a Black Nation somewhere. Right?

Given the stated goals and evinced behaviors of the BLM Crowd, kneeling during the “Black Anthem” should be obligatory for any genuine patriot.

And if that ‘nation’ intends to claim sovereignty and not follow our laws and yet still place demands on our taxpayers?

Then I’d say war has been declared.

Ooohhh...I like that. Nice martial music to tap your toes to! That’ll nicely complement the black national anthem.

Now what about Canadian-American?
