That’s it. Done. Finito. I’m not watching the NFL Network, ESPN, I’m not buying a freaking ticket, and will look to boycott the products they sponsor.

I’ll watch my teams games (suffrage) but that’s it. I’ll now have more time for all the things I put off.

My eyeballs and dollars pointing elsewhere.

What a friggin insult! Black National Anthem. This isn’t a black friggin country. It’s an American country.

They will make a racist out of many of us if this crap continues.
 
El, what the hell is the Black National Anthem?
 
I must admit that the song is a pretty one when done by John Legend. That does not mean that it should be played at any event such as an NFL game, MLB Baseball game, Major Leage Soccer, etc.
 
Apparently the NFL failed to learn their lesson about the whole kneeling debacle. So of course their bright idea is to double-down on their stupidity and pull this stunt.
 
I canceled my subscription to the NFL package from DirecTV when the kneeling started.

They’ll keep losing fans and viewers and eventually advertisers will notice.

That's it for me as well. This is beyond stupid. Just plain ass silly. I'ld rather watch synchronized swimming than gander at a bunch of rich guys playing a game. I've got way to much pride in my country and for my self than to go down the path the NFL is charting.
 
It’s far beyond the NFL. It’s the kids channels on TV. It’s the masks. It’s an attack on our national pride.
 
I don’t have an issue with this.
Me either. I have always thought playing national anthem before sporting events is silly. What's so patriotic about a football game or any other sporting event? These events are all about the great American pastime now anyway, gambling. They can play whatever music they like as far as I am concerned.
 
Coming home from the marina last night there was a group of 4 or 5 people on the side of a bridge that jumped out into the middle of the road right in front of me. I inserted a pic showing this area. The red line is the only sidewalk for walking but the people were where the smaller red mark is. They jumped out and were waving their arms. I swerved into the other lane at the last minute. It was dark and about 11:00PM and there are no lights on this bridge. Car in front of me did the same thing. All 4 or 5 appeared to be black females but I only really noticed 3 of them. Normally I would have stopped to see if the needed help but with everything going on I wasn't chancing it even though I had my Glock with me. Just not worth it. I do have a dashcam in my truck so probably got it recorded. Might pull it today to post it

 
What is a 'Black National Anthem' anyway? The key word here is 'National'. The Star Spangled Banner is the 'National Anthem' of the USA. It's every Americans anthem.

Somehow it's expected all should understand and respect this 'Black National Anthem' thing. The same people that expect that now, fail to understand how disrespectful it was when they first took a knee.

Here is the dashcam footage. I have a Garmin dashcam in wifes car but this is a cheaper one from Amazon so quality isn't that great

 
This shit has gotten insane. Just the song alone (I refuse to acknowledge it as an anthem) is not all there is. Did you read the NFL is also floating the idea of putting the names of the poor victims killed by the police on the uniforms and helmets. But for a couple of exceptions, these people were f*****g criminals that chose to break the law and place themselves in a position to be confronted by the cops. Tragic yes, but no one told George Floyd to try and pass counterfit money, or any of the others to resist arrest or disobey commands from the police. They made that choice. So now they will be made out as effing heroes so kids can say, “Look, if I break the law and resist arrest I can be famous too.” Now that is a nice positive roll model.

Holy shit....what is wrong with this country?
