Some Folks Have Come to Despise the NFL... >For fans who follow the sport, most of this will be a simple reminder of things you already know. For the rest, it's a wake-up call: > In 2012 the NFL had an issue with Tim Tebow kneeling before each game to pray, they also had an issue with Tebow wearing John 3:16 as part of his eye-black to avoid glare, and made him take it off. > In 2013 the NFL fined Brandon Marshall for wearing green cleats to raise awareness for people with mental health disorders. > In 2014 Robert Griffin III (RG3) entered a post-game press conference wearing a shirt that said "Know Jesus Know Peace" but was forced to turn it inside out by an NFL uniform inspector before speaking at the podium. > In 2015 DeAngelo Williams was fined for wearing "Find the Cure "eye black for breast cancer awareness. > In 2015 William Gay was fined for wearing purple cleats to raise awareness for domestic violence. (Not that the NFL has a domestic violence problem..). > In 2016 the NFL prevented the Dallas Cowboys from wearing a decal on their helmet in honor of 5 Dallas Police officers killed in the line of duty. > 2016 the NFL threatened to fine players who wanted to wear cleats to commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11. > So tell me again how the NFL supports free speech and expression. It seems quite clear based on these facts that the NFL has taken a position against any action by NFL players demonstrating RESPECT for any issue: > For God, social causes such as mental health, cancer, domestic violence, for cops killed arbitrarily, for being cops, or for the Memory of 9/11... > BUT they will allow demonstrations of DISRESPECT for our National Flag, our National Anthem, for America, and for the American People, if it will help mollify a particular Group and its supporters. That is who and what the NFL now has shown itself to be. For all the marxists, blm supporters, kneel benders, bowers, and pacifists SCREW YOU ALL!!! rr

I've already cancelled the National Football League, Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association and may be on the verge of doing the same to UK basketball if coach and players insist on continuing to shove racial identity politics in my face.

Same here chaty - I've found my life is actually much better without these sports. I have enjoyed high school football down here in Tennessee - they haven't managed to muck that up with too much political crap. Sometimes the simple things really are better - and all these overpaid, egotistic jocks can all go pound sand for all I care.

Ive gone back to enjoying professional bowling, mens and womens on You-Tube. Its real competition without support of terrorist operations.
Calipari has some walking back to do, BIGTIME.
