The NFL is working overtime to ensure nobody watches their games when they return. There already won’t be fans in the stands, but they are intent on making sure there are no fans watching on TV either. The league plans on playing the “black” national anthem before games, will allow players to commemorate dead black criminals on their helmets, and now is planning on putting “woke” social justice messages in the end zones. While you are not watching football, players will be scoring touchdowns in end zones emblazoned with “End racism.”
ESPN reports:
As part of the NFL’s ongoing commitment to social justice programs, the messages “It Takes All of Us” and “End Racism” will be stenciled on all end zone borders for home openers, the league office informed clubs on Monday in a memo obtained by ESPN.
The two messages of inclusion, which will be stenciled on opposite end zones during kickoff week, are key elements of the league’s broader, multifaceted rollout intended to highlight efforts to support diversity and inclusion when the new season begins.
The end zone messages demonstrate “how football and the NFL brings people together to work as one and use our example and our actions to help conquer racism,” the memo said.
How does this bring people together. Football fans, real football fans, watch to see a sport without all of the political bullshit. The vast majority of people who support this particular sport do not want the league telling them they are a bunch of racists; they want to see their favorite teams compete and do well.
This is, and the other woke crap, the most divisive thing possible. This is the NFL trying their hardest to drive away the fans that have made the league a success. That’s another way of saying, this is economic suicide.
Somehow this shit gets more ridiculous:
As previously reported, a recorded performance of “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing,” traditionally known as the Black national anthem, will be featured in pregame ceremonies. On stadium video screens, montages of the social justice work of NFL players and clubs will accompany the song. What’s more, according to the memo, the NFL has “engaged the James Weldon Johnson Foundation (the song’s author) and the NAACP to work with us to inform and educate fans about the historical significance of the song during the weeks leading up to kickoff, and will utilize the NFL’s owned and operated channels to share as broadly as possible.”
The memo also confirms that players will have the option to wear helmet decals honoring victims of systemic racism.
If coaches desire, they can honor victims of systemic racism by wearing patches on their hats.
Will anyone be allowed to play football or is that too racist and running counter to the NFL’s mission to be Al Sharpton?
There’s no way in hell I’m going watch one single snap of this NFL season. I’m a life-long football fan but also a life-long Detroit Lions fan so obviously it’s easy for me to walk away, my team sucks donkey balls. I have many friends who root for good teams and they too are turned off by this social justice garbage and won’t be tuning in this season either.
Major League Baseball came out of the gate with this Black Lives Matter bullshit and Tucker Carlson is killing them in the ratings. With no fans in the stands, the NFL and all sports are relying on TV for revenue. Nobody is going to watch this shit and then when the owners can’t pay the players, suddenly that will be the biggest racist outrage of all time.
