“Whatever happened to question authority?”

In my post I presented numbers from Pew Research that validated Butker’s statement.

From the article:

“While Butker’s words seem well within the scope of traditional Catholic values, the National Football League’s senior vice president and chief diversity and inclusion officer, Jonathan Beane hurried to distance the NFL from its content, saying “Mr. Butker’s views are not those of the NFL as an organization. The blame and the shame are entirely his. While there are no current plans to expel him from the league, as some have demanded, we cannot rule this out if public outrage forces our hand.”

Pro sports are not run by private enterprize people following rules. In pro football the owners make the rules and are contractually over demanding of the teams, players, team followers, officials, and in certain cases, the fans. They are the kings and queens of the sport and do whatever they want to make a buck. And that’s where it stops.

*The blame and the shame are entirely his.*
like he’s gonna back down?

*While there are no current plans to expel him from the league, as some have demanded, we cannot rule this out if public outrage forces our hand.”*

Sounds like a make my day moment. If so he should double down.
He’s already made $18 million so far. He doesn’t need the NFL.
