Last year, Professional Bull Riders (PBR) was the only major professional sport whose athletes took a pledge to always stand for the National Anthem.

The pledge they signed was sent out to all of their fans.

Here is a copy of the pledge:

The Professional Bull Riders sent out this statement today.
This is a natural evolution of 24 years of unbridled patriotism among the cowboys who founded this great American sport.

This calls for a link to the greatest rodeo-themed song of all time:

Now this is a manly sport! And, not an oppressed snowflake in the bunch.

Predictably, this is turning into “Trump (read: white people) says NFL players don’t have the right to protest.” Similar to how Lewinsky-gate was falsely framed as “all about sex.”

There isn’t a cell in my body that doesn’t burn with smoldering hatred for the Left.

Great!

Cuz I just bought 4 pair of Ariat boots, some hats and clothing of theirs to gear up for the NRCC at the Cow Palace and am looking forward to having a great time!

I will be entertained...

MLB, PGA... some Tennis... Sumo, Darts,

Everybody has a right to protest, not just those pushing the progressive cause du jour on television. They always seem to have trouble with rights being a two-way street. Strange, isn’t it, for such a purportedly rights-oriented bunch to always get that wrong, and always to the disadvantage of those with whom they disagree. Why, one might almost think they’re trying to disenfranchise their opposition or something.

I was thinking “Rawhide”

This doesn't surprise me-patriotic group of folks-Good for them!

Let's see if any other sports follow their lead.

Kneeling, not being on the field, or doing ANYTHING other than STANDING WITH YOUR HAND OVER YOUR HEART during the anthem - is absolute total disrespect to our country in general, and to our military, (including those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation), in particular!

Wrist is headquartered in snowflake central, the Bay Area. Don’t get too attached, they’ll cave too, stupid as it seems to those who actually understand business as opposed to everything being ideological.

What’s the MLS Players Union?

I didn’t know the Realtor’s Multiple Listing Service had a player’s union....or even had players.

Lacrosse is my #1. It’s rare to find a libtard playing that sport. We had one on our men’s team, but thankfully he moved back to Minnesota. He was such a whiny punk, too.
