I'm the furthest thing from a politard and my post history proves it. By the same token I'm the furthest thing from a SJW. I dont want a team full of true believers in BLM or Qanon. If activism is the new face of college and/or pro sports I'll find something else to do with my weekends. And if LSU continues down its woke path it will be without my annual donation.
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm likely in the same boat with you. I just can't get on board and truly enjoy something if what I'm watching is completely against my own core beliefs as a human being. I'm sure there are plenty of folks who disagree and that's certainly their right. However, I personally don't think I can really and truly support something if they subscribe to something and push ideals that are so far away from what is important to me. At that point, it ceases being as enjoyable to me, and I have other things I can do in my leisure time that are enjoyable. Sports have always been an escape for me from the daily grind of life. I don't need politics and social justice narratives shoved down my throat while I'm trying to watch sports. If I want that, I can turn it on the news. These players may have a platform and they're more than welcome to use their platform to reach people who they want to reach or who want to be reached. I'm just not one of those people who want to be reached. I'm very aware of the issues and, quite frankly, don't need a college athlete (or any entertainer) to let me know anything.

Amen brother my weekends of watching football are about done if LSU caves to this leftist bs. I have been wanting a boat and its about time to get one. Sports has become a political shitshow now.

Is football against your core beliefs or the people playing it?
I’m wondering what you’re gonna do with your free time as a lot of movies, TV, Music are made by liberals.
