The cult of “anti racism” has fully taken over the NFL

[Bold2013]

We have lost another sport. Cancel culture is in full swing in the National Football League.

Well at least we have books… until they start burning them again…

I agree. Powerful and well paid men (especially if they are white) should be exempt to say and do whatever the hell they want to do to whom ever they choose with absolutely no repercussions. What's the world coming to?

That said, even though I was white and male, I was told early in my career with a rather large German company to never put an email out there or record a voice mail that I wouldn't want to show up on the front page of the New York Times. That was in the 1980's, so perhap the counter culture is older than you think.

Weren’t you the one who said, “ So we live peacefully in our system with one another unless it is at odds with the King of Kings.” And wished a member a “blessed day”? Is there a little cognitive dissonance going on? Lol! 😂😂

What a profoundly uninformed and dumb opinion. He voluntarily resigned.
For me--a wimpy gay homosexual fairie faggot who has always been confused and annoyed by the game--it validated a lot of my suspicions about many of the people involved. There's another profoundly uninformed and dumb opinion to follow the trend!

What this thread and the OP reveal is the common existence today of religious people who quote the Bible, yet fail to follow the clear teachings of treating others as you would have them treat you.

Perhaps the problem is that some gatherings are more entertaining that informative. How else could Paul White and Franklin Graham endorse those who are as foreign to Jesus as one could be.

Don’t tithe, it was a mid 1800’s construct.

How to handle such ignorance is beyond me.

Yikes!!

Bold2013, if it makes you feel any better, I'm sure that racism is still alive and well in the NFL. Gruden's comments (racist and homophobic and misogynist) are simply another indication that the pernicious attitudes still swim strong under the surface (mostly under) of the water.

Should we speculate what an examination of the texts and emails of the performers chosen for the Super Bowl half-time show would reveal?

Sounds like you already have done this speculation: "What about dem blacks?"

I have. I suspect that they are about the same, but won't be examined because the spectacle must go on. Bread and circuses.
I have no idea what point your question is trying to make. Eminem is white.

Sorry. I have trouble reading the tone of your short answers in the form of questions.

I don't think that we should "speculate" on anyone's emails. And that's not why Gruden resigned, either (on "speculation").

@bold2013, have a blessed day…..😂😂😂🤭

Soooo ... no more football?

Good riddance. Yank football is a militaristic, corporate bore.

Soccer football is a better game and so is rugby (Go All Blacks!)

American football isn't a "bore," but it is certainly militaristic and corporate. Can't disagree there. And we could easily do without it.

Haha. Football (as it's known everywhere but in the US, haha) is certainly dramatic. Near fatal injuries with instant recoveries are hilarious. And that one guy with the teeth, Luis (?) the biter, hahaha. Thought that happened only in boxing.

I also have watched a lot of handball and ski-jumping. (Who am I?!)

BTW: I didn't watch the Olympics this last time 'round, cos technical problems with the TV and antenna that I'm not bothering to address, but the time or two before that, I was astonished by how much of the Olympics I was able to view while in Poland as opposed to the commercial-saturated, USA-centric (which, yeah, I get that) "coverage" in the States. Here, there were extended periods of coverage, with commercials shown in a block of, I don't remember, five or ten minutes, maybe 20. I know why that model doesn't work in the US, but, man, it's a superior Olympics-viewing experience.

NFL football is notable for how much time the players spend wandering about and scratching their parts, as opposed to playing the game.

Which serves the corporate interests, e.g. Big Beer, allowing plenty of time for viewers to get bored, swill beer, and revisit the refrigerator for more.

Fair, but let's also note how much drinking and corporate sponsorsgip money is involved in FIFA. FIFA and European football are also rank with corporate monied interests and brute behavior (including issues with racism). I love soccer, by the way.

Football is bigger than an overblown ego. Don't worry, it is here to stay as long as highly talented athletes, who can do nothing else, are willing to suffer irrepairable damage physically for large sums of money.
