Hardly no one in the stands is close enough to see what they are doing and anyone watching a screen can read the close captions.

Virtue signalling?

With some of these performances lately, I wish I was deaf.

Deaf people who can’t read closed captioning.
… clearly a huge subsegment of the population who need to be represented

It's just another DEI initiative.

It must be absolutely miserable going through life so full of vile and hate that you hate on the sign language person at the biggest sporting event of the year. Let some love in your heart my friend. You’ll likely live longer.

Guarantee groups get government funding to do this. Get paid $1,000 for a job that could cost $100 and benefit 0.01% of the viewers.

Ummmm.....they are on the field. If you happen to be deaf, and attending the SB, you have no idea what that dude is signing. They barely showed the dude on tv.

Virtue signaling at its finest.

It’s only to be inclusive for deaf, even though they’re too far or it wasn’t carried on the broadcast.

More annoyance at pointless, contrived gestures whose sole purpose is to allow people to pat themselves on the back

It's a liberal thing. That is why you only see a sign language person in blue cities when they have a mayor or sheriff talking about something.
