Yeah, but the NFL had a lot bigger conservative fanbase, apparently, then other sports.
Ok, the race hustlers are about to step in and promise to calm the storm. But, a nice fat donation to our cause will make it happen quicker.
First rule of holes-——When you can’t see out, quit digging. Guess the nfl missed the memo huh?
NFL owners to meet, with racial divide on the agenda.
NFL fans should be the agenda.
LOOK! The police are our friends! Seriously. Trust us. We were just kidding before!
Real Meaning: uh oh, our paychecks are threatened. The owner's equity is threatened.
They sold their soul to the “racial divide”. Now they can build the league “they want” based on that choice. I say, “they want” because I don’t think they realize exactly what they’ve chosen, but it’s all theirs now.
More NFL teams renamed: Oakland Traitors, Baltimore Cravens, Buffalo Bolsheviks, Green Bay Pinkos, Washington Red Guards, Los Angeles Chekists, Jacksonville Jacobins.
Or the Dallas Cowgirl Pussies!
Message to remaining fans: Your beatings will continue until morale improves. That is all.
Local church pastors pled with Jerry Jones to change his tone on the topic. One even went so far as to bring up slavery narratives. Slavery?! These muscle heads are being paid millions to play a game! They are NOT slaves. They are employees of these team owners. If the players have the right to protest, then owners have the right to fire them for protesting on company time. Period.
It really boils down to a few simple facts:
1. As with any business, are you as the owner going to allow the employees to dictate the way the business is run?
2. The NFL is in the entertainment industry and the fans have overwhelmingly demonstrated that they do not want politics or personal grievances injected into the game.
Personally, I love winning, but I'd rather lose with players that represent my values than win with a bunch of thugs and criminals.
What seems to have sailed over their pointy little heads is the rather pertinent fact that football fans want... FOOTBALL.. not social activism. We had eight years of a “community organizer” in the White House. That was plenty for most of us.
But, sure as a bear sh*ts in the woods, the NFL is proving it can be counted on to double down on a very bad hand.
When all is said and done, and the NFL dies after writhing in skin-melting, bone-snapping agony, what must never be forgotten is this: They were warned.
Quarterbacks are dropping like flies and yet nobody is willing to give Kaepernick an audition. You’d think they’d be getting the message by now.
‘I think the article is missing the point’
everyone misses the point; until some points out the awful truth...no amount of grovelling is going to satisfy blacks who insist on blaming their problems on a social construct that was abolished by massive bloodshed over 150 years ago...
abetted by a self hating cadre of white journalists and pundits, they have learned to use the race card to maximum effect, and it’s never been as powerful as it is now...
If [the players] have that credibility and the league will work with them, then you greatly increase the chances that there is a way out of this.
Dear NFL and Players,
At this point the best option you have to make your point and guarantee everyone hears and understands you, would be for the Entire Team and the Coaches to Parade themselves on to the Field during the Anthem, each of them carrying a Burning American Flag.
“Social activism” requires one to accept the narrative put out by the left. That requires accepting the fiction they put forward as true.
Once you accept their false assumptions about reality, their entire agenda falls into place.
How about being specific on what these 'racial tensions' are?
It might be that some team owners might be thinking of putting a hit out on that former TERRIBLE QB for the 49ers.
I think this is bigger than just the NFL. Sports broadcasting is a major reason why people keep paying their cable TV bill.
Once they drive a new demographic group into the cord cutter camp the major media companies will have a hard time getting them back.
NFL players have become Hollywood movie stars in that they are given way more voice than they deserve on all things political.
