How is it a clear oppression of free speech? Are the Miami Dolphins the “government”

Love football, hate the propaganda that comes with it these days. Seriously how could a straight white man not think something is wrong with the whole spectacle of the football industry. From the obvious talent or un-talent picks like black QBs who cant throw to black CBs who cant run and are like 5’6” tall to the despicable commercials and to the lowest bit the white gimps on TV and their stereotyping stupidity.

LOL, good one. You should go make a video asking the low information voters if they support our “new” amendment.

What makes me sick is that no one on our side is fighting back. Whoever would do so would have widespread public support—remember how the public mobbed Chick Fillet eateries in 2012 in support of their stand on marriage? Yet even their CEO decided to cave and bowed to the homosexual lobby a few weeks ago.

The NFL might as well hire Larry Johnson of the Knicks to do there marketing.(Remember that he wants a BLACKs ONLY NBA).

If Roger Goodell(Pitiful) thinks the NFL is going to benefit from the ceaseless promotion and defense of an openly gay player then good luck. I can’t do a thing about Michael Sam being gay except pray for him. When I watch the NFL I want to see well played and exciting games. I don’t care about the sexual orientation and exploits of the players.

If I were a handsome Ram football player and I thought that Michael Sam was staring at me and lusting after me would I have recourse? Is leering a form of harassment? Isn’t putting a man who is attracted to other men in an environment where nudity is common a problem?

BTW, do male reporters have access to the Rams Cheerleaders locker room?

The only way to fight back against the NFL is not to support them by refusing to buy tickets, and turning off TV on Sunday afternoon and evenings. Find something else to do.

There is nothing macho about sitting on a sofa munching chips and sipping suds. Get outside with the kids and play softball, volleyball - go hiking or cycling - that’s what real men do!!!

The legacy media and large corporations are acting as agents of the government to take away free speech.

The PUBLIC can “FINE” the NFL for promoting this garbage.

The simple fact that there was an active campaign to shove Tim Tebow out of the NFL for his Christian Values, and now the NFL wants to push this garbage is enough to make me give up watching.

I haven’t watched MLB since the strike that cancelled the 1994 World Series. I gave up on the NBA a few years before that.

I have a feeling I’m about to give up on the NFL.

Watching and following professional sports used to be a big part of my life. For example, I saved money from my part time jobs and bought NFL season tickets when I was only 16 years old, the first year I had a drivers license and could drive myself to the games.

But I’m fed up with how far the NFL has sunk in the past few years. This fall, my Sunday plans will include going to the gym, walking my dogs, and going to the shooting range.

The line is moved a little more each day. More and more things are now called hate speech. There is little left that a normal person can say or do without being accused of bias.

Hate crime laws were created for the express purpose of criminalizing anything that a normal person says or does, or doesn’t say or doesn’t do.

Just blocking Sam in a game will be considered a Hate Crime.
