He Done Screwed The Pooch Now Boy-o's - NFL ed.

As in.. the black version of what those tiki torch white dudes were doing that freaked the left out, but instead the left are down on their knees for black power.

Fucking morons.

Exactly. The black power fist is no different than the tiki torch white identity politics. Well, I guess you could say one group makes a lot more money than the other.

Again, all these College Graduates in the NFL and we can't get a decent editorial about what the hell they want, instead we get a Black Power Fist.

At least the Altists actually write a plethora of articles about what they are but of course, everyone is hung up on tiki torches.

To be fair, I am searching for NFL Players Editorials on the subject.

Ed Reid wrote Sept 25th, 2017 and appears to speak for Kaepernick.

For those of you pissed at Trump for calling them out, I ask, would we have gotten this if Trump was silent ? BHO didn't call them on it, and we didn't get written argument. On with the Reid piece.

my teammate Colin Kaepernick chose to sit on the bench during the national anthem to protest police brutality. To be honest, I didn’t notice at the time, and neither did the news media.......

(after 2 weeks)We spoke at length about many of the issues that face our community, including systemic oppression against people of color, police brutality and the criminal justice system. We also discussed how we could use our platform, provided to us by being professional athletes in the N.F.L., to speak for those who are voiceless.

After hours of careful consideration, and even a visit from Nate Boyer, a retired Green Beret and former N.F.L. player, we came to the conclusion that we should kneel, rather than sit, the next day during the anthem as a peaceful protest. We chose to kneel because it’s a respectful gesture. I remember thinking our posture was like a flag flown at half-mast to mark a tragedy.

I guess to this I would say, you found justification for something you were already doing. And why didn't this Editorial accompany it ?
Did you take into consideration how your team felt about this, the people that give you your platform?

I have too often seen our efforts belittled with statements like “He should have listened to the officer,” after watching an unarmed black person get shot, or “There is no such thing as white privilege” and “Racism ended years ago.” We know that racism and white privilege are both very much alive today.

Reid is blinded by viewing everything through race. He doesn't understand how many white people get shot every year too, and the same thing is said. He should have listened to the officer.

How am I supposed to take this seriously when 6,000 blacks are violently killed by blacks every year. Maybe I'm sick of seeing Chicago's crime and gang violence as a blight on our country. How am I supposed to take this seriously when the disparity of White on Black violence to Black on White violence is ridiculous.

I am nevertheless encouraged to see my colleagues and other public figures respond to the president’s remarks with solidarity with us.

That's the Fucking Problem right there. You don't understand we are all in this together. We are on the same team. You are dividing the team.

N.J. mega car dealer pulls TV ads over NFL protests
"The National Football League and its owners have shown their fans and marketing partners that they do not have a comprehensive policy to ensure that players stand and show respect for America and our flag during the playing of the national anthem," Steve Kalafer said in a statement. "We have cancelled all of our NFL advertising "

Looks like most NFL fans don't care enough to stop watching:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/n ... 724246001/

I skipped all of the Sunday afternoon games and MNF. Also stopped buying NFL merchandise like McFarlane/Madden figures and apparel.

[DBTrek]

Watching NFL games on broadcast, where they can't possibly prove I'm viewing them.
Not buying NFL merchandise at all.
So I take the entertainment, return zero money or metrics they can sell to advertisers.
I urge you all to do the same.

Seems people don't think the same as you:

Fox’s NFL coverage netted a 12.6 rating and 26 share, a 14% increase over its Week 4 coverage a year ago. The network broadcast one game nationally on Sunday and the ratings were about 20% better than CBS’ singleheader coverage in Week 4 of 2016.

Fox had the top-rated NFL broadcast of the weekend and its best singleheader telecast since 2015, the network announced on Monday.

As if Penner doesn't know it was a bunch of SJWs and progressives tuning in to see the athletes disrespect the flag and veterans, and those viewers don't give a shit about football..
