I tuned into the NFL pregame and couldn't find anything about the actual sport, but found everything about racial equality. They said that is their goal. So with that in mind, will they bring more white guys onto the teams to make it more racially equal? Right now it is extremely racially unequal to the demographics of the country. Only 6 to 7% of the population are black males, but NFL teams average about 70% black. Time for racial equality. Time to back up their words with action.

Easy solution. Turn off the TV. Don't give these racist, violent pieces of garbage a forum to spread their hate and divisiveness. Take it to the next level and inform any sponsors of the NFL that you won't buy their products.

NFL Week 1 Pregame all about racial equality


No, it was all about surrendering to a mob of thugs who have rioted and bullied the NFL and other frightened groups into placating them, mindlessly reciting their slogans and playacting as though the slogans represented what they really want.

I watched a recording a few minutes till I saw the de rigeur linking arms, kneeling, "black lives matter" insults etc., then turned it off and deleted it.

Who won, anyway?

The NFL is clearly racist and the NFL doesn't look like America.

What is the NFL doing to get more Asian and Hispanic players? What about transgendered players? What about women players? Ans yes, even white players are underrepresented.

Merit is a word of white privilege and culture. I think we need to recognize that the NFL is systemically racist.

The best solution to the NFL's systemic racism I think would be to give extra yards to players of underrepresented backgrounds and reduce black player's yards.

Some examples of NFL affirmative action:

-An Asian player runs for 2 yards and we should multiply it by 2. Nice 4 yard run! If a black male player runs the ball for 6 yards then we should cut it in half. 3 yard pick up.

-If a transgendered player catches a pass for 10 yards...we should multiply it by 4. Wow a 40 yard play! If a black male catches a pass for 10 yards it should be cut down to a 5 yard catch.

-If a woman sacks a QB for 5 yards it should count as a loss of 30 yards. If a black male sacks a QB it should come back to the line of scrimmage.

-There should also be caps on how many touchdowns black cis males can score in the NFL. No limits for women, LGBTQ+, and Asians.

That would be woke and that would be social justice.

NFL is a commercial product - as a consumer you can decide whether to watch or not watch.

Still a free country.
