Why didn’t Luis Moreno Jr. return to the booth

Democrats kicking Hispanics out of their group, not good for them.

Non story.

It's a story because this only happens to Trump supporters, unequal arbitrary and capricious application of policy.

>>The NFL has turned into an arm of the DNC, making their product a political rally, thereby isolating itself from 50% of the population.<<

I think it is a higher percentage than that. I think even democrat Joe Sixpack fans do NOT want a big serving of politics with their sports. We watch sports to get AWAY from that.

Note: That same Joe Sixpack is probably a democrat b/c he is Union and it is automatic. He probably is not political like the rabid dogs on the field and in the owner’s box.

Since Zimmerman, non-illegal Hispanics are considered “white.”

The NFL has killed the Golden Goo$e that lived to feather their nests and trophy cases. TDs? or TDS?

Brilliant!!

Well, I hope the RNC makes a really good ad out of this “non-story” and runs it in every Hispanic media market in the country.

“When the NFL refused to let Rush Limbaugh buy into a team the writing was on the wall.”

That’s when I ditched the NFL.

I got into a heated argument with my mother-in-law yesterday about the NFL. Specifically, I told her I don’t give a &£|! about it any more, and when asked why, I simply told her “Because I watched sports to escape everyday life for awhile on the weekends, and I’m not going to put up with their politics being shoved in my face on my time!” That ended the argument pretty damn quick, though she lives with us so I have to be careful 😉

FWIW, I was a die-hard Steelers fan since I was in diapers - it was a hard habit to quit. You want to preach about social justice? That’s fine - DO IT ON YOUR OWN $/@&ing time! /rant

Agreed.

I think these sports teams ought to leave politics and names on jerseys, etc. OUT of the sport. If they can put these names on a shirt, helmet, whatever, why can’t this guy voice his support for Trump?

This crap needs to stop.

I make people mad when I call them the North Carolina Panthers. My rationale;

1) North and South Carolina hasn’t been one state since 1712.

2) NFL players pay taxes in the states they play in. No NFL player never paid one tax dollar to South Carolina for that.

#) There’s an amusement park on both the North and South Carolina border named Carowinds. If they wanted the football team to represent both states, they should have built the stadium like that. It’s all in North Carolina.

It’s a story. They can fire him. But it’s a story that they do not approve Americans.

The dude knew his social media activity was counter to the Panthers' policies so they didn't renew his contract. He has every right to post whatever he wants and the team has every right to not renew his contract if he doesn't want to adhere to their policies. Non story.

True, but if they don't apply it across ALL employees, it's not only discrimination but allowing Democrat support is an illegal "payment in kind" as the NFL previously did for former Pres_ent (No ID) Barack Hussein Obama and is currently doing for Black Lives MatterTM who funnel donations to Democrat organizations.
