I have dumped pro sports from my agenda. College sports are hanging by a thread. Any more of those sanctimonious virtue signalling messages that each sport issued a month ago and I am out. It was all hypocritical and self serving

I really expect to see college athletes continue to push the envelope with kneeling for he anthem, possibly demand the Black national anthem be played, end zone or sideline messaging and on and on. Expect a message to be played on their behalf during each quarter. The announcers will be coached to make comments during the game to support the cause.

The athletes may demand the NCAA allow them to wear their message on the uniforms like the NBA. If denied the NCAA will be labeled racist. This will allow the NCAA to self - flagellate and tell the world how they " listened" and now understand the error of their ways. In this historic moment they will suspend their rules because they understand the importance of black lives matter.

Meanwhile hundreds of young black men are shot and many are killed every week in the neighborhoods which these college athletes call home. Its infuriating how feckless this country has become. We cannot stop it, but we can slow it down and send a message.

College baseball is still good.
