I wonder how long it will be before he is no longer a KC Chief.

Some good Catholics in the Hunt family (Chiefs ownership). He's in a good place. Right team. He also owns a Kansas City haberdashery, Shepherd's. I got to serve him coffee and doughnuts (I didn't know he was there) after the 9 AM Mass a few years ago.

“His big problem in that upper Catholic church leadership won’t support him.”

Not as much a problem as you might think. Ross Douthat had a good piece a couple days ago explaining that the Traditional Latin Mass subculture (of which Mr. Butker is now America’s most prominent example... and yours truly is America’s least prominent example, lol), is a lay-led movement that embraces perennial Catholic teachings and exists in spite of what the Catholic hierarchy says or does, not because of it.

Can you imagine the barrage he’d get if he apologized? You’d be handing them ammunition. They’d have no mercy, they’d hit you over the head until you’re homeless. They want you canceled, no matter who gets hurt - even if it is his family.

Good for him. This is what you do.

That’s right man, never be the victim. Victims only suffer and die. This is for God.

Don’t apologize to the fascists! Hold your ground and they will instead swarm around someone who bows down in submission and grovels.

Good for him, and it is great that they have sold out of his jerseys!

Good news. We’ll see how much pressure the usual suspects bring to bear on the KC Chiefs management. Weirder things have happened.

Has Mr. Taylor Swift weighed in yet?

He gave the standard, "I don't agree with a lot of it, but he's a good guy and can state his own opinion." Taylor Swift's future brother-in-law Jason was less kind, but he's retired, and was on a different team.

This might be a good time for the future Mr. Swift to suggest to Taylor that she might take up homemaking. It worked for Pat Benatar and Juice Newton, who took time off during their peaks to raise a family.
