” they were told it was to “send a message to Trump”.”
It was? Okay, where the hell were they back in the 60’s when all colors of people were being slaughtered.
Don’t try to think people are that stupid that they buy a we are saying something when they did nothing during the Obama’s administration who was actively trying to do things, wrong as they were, on this topic.
The administration mishandling of the Gates incident, and the Martin and Brown shootings are perfect examples of the mishandle and, I feel, an attempt to incite more violence, by Obama and his justice department.
And the expectancy of the players to be supported by the owners in their acts of political lobbying, which has nothing to do with the game, and if done correctly outside of the contest, stays within the confines of their contract agreement on behavior, is just plain pandering.
It just gets worse. And until it hits them in the pocketbook: owners, players, television and radio companies, sponsors, and the local bars and restaurants that supply the games, because people won’t support it, you won’t see this crap end. But when it does when the teams can’t pay their bills, it will quietly just fade into space. The will try to sneak out of the failure like a thief in the night. Nothing but crickets from the press.
