Why is the NFL Funding OPEN BORDERS?
The Hayride ^ | 8 Dec 17 | Bethany Blankley

Posted on 12/09/2017 11:39:29 AM PST by LSUfan

In addition to protesting the National Anthem, the National Football League is now funding left-wing advocacy groups, including Dream Corps, a George Soros organization, led by a former Obama advisor, Van Jones. Jones states that he is a communist and two of the goals of Dream Corps is to advocate for the “Clean Power Plan” and open borders.

The NFL recently agreed to pay $73 million over seven years to various groups that the NFL Players Coalition supports. The coalition was created in 2016 as a way to “respond to perceived institutional bias among law enforcement agencies.” Its members are active and former NFL athletes. The $73 million will fund three major categories: 25 percent will fund the United Negro College Fund; 25 percent will fund Dream Corps; 50 percent will be allocated and controlled by members of the Players Coalition.

At some point NFL fans are going to have to realize that they are subsidizing Leftist extremism when they buy tickets and go to games. If you buy NFL merchandise you don’t have the luxury of denial. You are funding Soros.

Any so called conservative, who attends any NFL game or watches them on tv is a _______________________ (fill in the blank!)

I’m a nearly life-long Broncos fan, but while the team itself seems to be trying everything it can this season to make me never want to watch them again, the league has definitely cinched it. I’ve had way more than enough of the coddling of dumb street thugs who falsely believe themselves to be important.

I hope their revenues continue to sink to the point where the players have to seriously weigh a job at McDonald’s against an NFL salary (though most would likely just go back to selling drugs).

Probably 50% of the fans don’t even know who the vice president is. The rest are lefties who lean Communist.

Because the NFL is nothing but a Trojan horse for hard left agitprop. NFL delenda est.

“The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance!” (please read the date this was published)

“But there seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance.

They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously — after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important… so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be both ignorant and subliterate every time he opens his mouth. (Most of his fans were just as ignorant and unlettered; the disease was spreading.)”

The NFL and it’s great ideas...

Now fans can walk out on the field mid-game?

Shouldn’t they be able to dictate NFL rules from there as well?
