He may as well.

The guy was handed the Titanic and he seems hellbent on trying to drive it into an ice burg. He hasn't yet. But not for lack of effort.

To what end is any of this necessary or good for your business? The homosexual population in this country is probably 5%, at best (though the media and corporations are desperately trying to make being homosexual the next cood "fad"). Now, of that incredibly small percentage, what percentage are ardent NFL fans? Probably not very many. So you're having an event to pander to what, .0001% of the US population? And it's not like something like this is going to get you an influx of new customers. I doubt there are a tremendous amount of people sitting out there saying "you know. I would probably like football more if they would just reach out to the gay community." If anything, you run an exponentially bigger risk of running off existing customers who are just tired of constant, vapid, virtue signaling.

I can at least understand why the NFL thought it should go all in on the BLM virtue-signaling in 2020. Something like 75% of its "employees" (players) are black. But this is just dumb from a business perspective. I'm pretty sure they sit around HQ trying to make sure they pander to every "victim" group

Its weird that there must be a day of inclusion for a fan group for whom there has been no exclusion. All other subsets have no specific days of inclusion thereby being excluded.

A very loud NOPE

But try this

I would probably like football more if they would show how the football players are important parts of their childrens' lives in the off season.
