Wow .... this NFL season seems so distant.  Hard to believe the HOF game would have been tonight.  I must admit that I'm a bit disinterested at this time given they are kind of out of sight out of mind and everything has gotten so political lately.  Still not certain they don't do what the Premier League (UK) does and have everyone stand for the National Anthem (God Save the Queen) and they have a moment of silence prior to the start of play showing everyone kneeling in support of BLM and such.  Seems like a win-win situation to me.

There can be no compromise.  The puppet masters behind the curtain do now want to find common ground.  If us puppets ever do unify the strings will come off and they will lose the power to control us.
Roger would sell his mother to a sweatshop in a China Nike factory if it guaranteed him a season.

The irony is, the left is eating it's own by pretending a situation is worse than it actually is. Hopefully this leads to the owners finally deciding Roger and his 42M annual salary need to step down.
There can be no compromise, because it's about the flag. Critical race theory teaches the system IS the oppression. The flag represents the system. The system must change. The people who are initiating these movements won't accept compromise. Only people who genuinely want unity are willing to do that.

And I don't want unity with those people, they are evil.

I guess that pretty much sums it up.

What if the 40+ year old white person (who is the core objector to kneeling during the National Anthem) would refrain from buying tickets to such sporting events?  It seems to me that the referenced demography is the core season ticket holder in both leagues (at least that's my perspective from attending such events).  It seems to me this would result in a major hit to revenues, salaries, and ultimately the value of the franchises.  Wonder if that could happen down the road.

I guess the blunt way to put that is "when are white people going to quit spending money on games when the players go out of their way to insult them?"

I am that core.   I quit!  I barely visit the football side of the website anymore.
Yeah, I don't want to do it, but I think I might. I would love to heal racial division in this country. It's been an interest of mine since I was a teenager. I just think the way our sports organizations are doing this is the wrong way. Not really interested in appeasing the vocal minority (progressives, not blacks, since I'm sure someone will misunderstand that).
