This article is not about football.

Nearly two weeks ago, since Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker gave his decidedly un-woke—go-for-the-throat—commencement address at Benedictine College, the activist Left and their colluding mass propaganda media allies have been insanely out for blood.

Long behold, the radicals intended to get revenge Wednesday during a Chiefs media availability.

At the press conference, of course, were coach Andy Reid and Butker’s high-profile teammate, quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

NOTE: Each of these men stepped up to prove themselves well worth admiration from many of us who have written-off professional sports, particularly pro-football.

Not surprisingly, both were asked about Butker’s speech and the media-driven uproar over it. Fortunately, neither one took the bait offered by their questioners and instead defended Butker.

The following is what Patrick Mahomes told reporters at The Chiefs’ OTAs on Wednesday:

I’ve known him [Harrison Butker] for seven years. I judge him by the character he shows every day and that’s a good person.

That’s someone who cares about the people around him, cares about his family, and wants to make a good impact in society. When you’re in a locker room, you’re around a lot of people from a lot of different areas of life, and they have a lot of different views on everything. We’re not always going to agree…certain things I don’t agree with.

But I understand the person that he is. He’s trying to do whatever he can to lead people in the right direction, and that might not be the same values that I have.

But at the same time I’m going to judge him by the character he shows every day, and that’s a good person.

The following is what Coach Reid told reporters at The Chiefs’ OTAs:

Listen, I talk to Harrison all the time. I didn’t talk to him about this, didn’t think we needed to.

We’re a microcosm of life. Everybody’s from different areas, different religions, different races. So we all get along, we all respect each other’s opinions and not necessarily do we go by those, but we respect everybody to have a voice.

That’s the great thing about America, man, and we’re just, like I said, a microcosm of that. My wish is that everybody could kind of follow that.

Watch Mahomes’ and Reid’s respective responses below:

Reid also quipped:

I let you guys in this room and you have a lot of opinions that I don’t like, so.

Coach Reid’s response was especially noteworthy considering he was being looked upon by some to discipline Butker for giving a pro-Catholic speech to a Catholic college in a private capacity and not as a representative of the Chiefs’ organization.

The Coach handled this situation and himself superbly. Neither he nor Mahomes threw Butker under the bus, rather they chose to defend their teammate and his right to say what he did.

Perhaps, though, the unsaid words should have been said to the radical reporters aligned against Reid and Mahomes: Go F**k Yourselves.

Final thoughts: Team Integrity!! Coach Reid, you are holding your team together masterfully.

A Football Team is very similar to a Special Operations Team. And Team Integrity is a must.

Liberalism is a mental disorder that must be defeated if treatment is refused. Conservatism MUST begin to demonstrate strict Team Integrity.
