The capacity of stadiums during games right now is a preview of what’s to come if politics continue to infiltrate the league. I’m already down to just Saints games.

Did you boycott Pats games when Brady wore a MAGA hat, in the name of no politics?

I felt the same way entering the year, but I've watched the heck out of some nfl since I got direct ticket for free this year. Man, I've gotta admit I've really enjoyed it too. The product has been outstanding

I can't stress this enough - no one cares about your opinion.

No you are not.

If you are a Saints fan you also watch divisional games and games that invole other top NFC teams like Seattle and Green Bay.

Otherwise you sound like an idiot when in NFL discussions.

You've stopped everything else EXCEPT the Saints? What the hell type of logic is that?

If you were dropping anything, it would be the freaking Saints.

If no politics in sports is the hill you are willing to plant your flag on, why are you still latching on to the Saints. Were their offseason issues with BLM and Drew not enough to fill your appetite to boycott sports? Or are you actually not willing to sacrifice something you enjoy?

Are you trying to say the debs will keep us out of the stadiums forever? Cuz I don’t believe you.

If you want a better look at what politics in sports looks like, go look up the rule the owners just passed that says anyone who hires a black coach or exec gets a 3rd round draft pick.

That’s discrimination at it’s most basic level.

Or maybe they're encouraging NFL owners (30 of whom are WHITE) to stop being racist. When you'd rather give Norv Turner his 35th NFL job rather than hire an African American, you have a culture problem.

And it's "its," you sociology scholar.

Making a rule that puts any job candidate at a disadvantage because of the color of their skin is racist. There is no other way to put it. It not even trying to hide, its out in the open.

So now a white guy doesn't just have to be the best man for the job, he has to better than the best minority coach plus a 3rd round draft pick.

Lets also explore what the impact on the minority coaches will be. First off it will diminish the achievement, some will say he only got the job cuz of the draft pick and the coach will always have to wonder about that. It will also put minority coaches in shitty situations. When a team like the jets who need to completely rebuild fire their coach, they will look for a minority HC, not cuz he is the best but because they could use another draft pick. If he is not good within 2-3 years, they can (and likely will) fire him cuz he was never hired for his coaching ability to begin with.

I also noticed you mentioned a white guy who hasn't been a HC since 2012 and isn't even coaching anymore and you mentioned zero minorities that should be hired instead. If this was such an issue, you should be able to come up with multiple specific examples.

It is a sports board. Take that to the political circle jerk board.

Complains about somebody posting their opinion on a board designed for people to post their opinions.
