Consider other hobbies who’s stopping you...
They should be able to express themselves they way they feel BLM or MAGA. People who are saying they won’t watch isn’t hurting anyone

I think it’s silly, but it doesn’t upset me enough that I’ll stop watching football

I can’t believe how much y’all’s entire identity revolves around politics

And yes a lot of you should consider other hobbies. A lot of you fish, drink beer, watch sports, and watch the news. Maybe life has more to offer

NOT while wearing an LSU uniform or while representing LSU on the football field. Those pushing this shite KNOW it will destroy college football. That's their intent. Represent your political or other personal views YOURSELF on YOUR OWN time like everyone else. Taking advantage of the extra publicity generated by the broadcasting of a football or basketball game is not something YOU have a right to do. There are no individuals on a team sport and allowing players to become individuals will kill it.

Well, this simply isn't true. The NCAA just gave them that right.

I watch sports to get away from all the crappy things in the news for 3-4 hours every Saturday. It is a nice break. If I have to hear the same crap during a game I'll just find something else to do...no big deal. I know me not watching won't take a dime from anyone and nobody will care. Was a damn fun ride and at least the team I loved ended on a high note!

If they put maga on the uniforms you’d be doing backflips

You don’t care that they are being allowed to make political statements, you care because you disagree with their message

And yet, you can't wear a jersey with your name spelled "Burreaux".

I'd be just as angry. Sports needs to steer clear of anything political if it is to survive. State funded universities have no business using sports to play politics, especially during an election year. The leftist running the universities are doing EXACTLY what they falsely accused Trump of doing with the Russians. They are colluding to impact an election. Where is the liberal "outrage"? Nowhere. Because liberals lie and don't care about the destruction they are doing to this nation in their insane effort to regain power.

Nope. They could put Reagan, Obama or Clinton on the jersey and most right-minded people would object. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong vehicle.

Nope. Their message could contain any version of any subject and most right-minded people would object. Sports has historically brought people together; I doubt this will have the same effect.

Don't threaten it! PLEASE DON"T WATCH. I hope and pray we can get rid of all you racist pieces of shite on this board and in sports!! I hope you never watch or attend another event that a black athlete participates in.

What's crazy is a lot of you, for months, have been saying if this happens or that happens then you are done with football or basketball and you are never watching it again or going to any games.

But then something happens and you come back to complain about the next thing and say THIS time you will be done but you KEEP COMING back to a sports board focused primarily on Football ( Mostly Black) Basketball { Mostly Black).

Did you realize no one gave a frick when you left?
If 100% of you who said they would never go to a game or watch sports again if BLM was a part of it actually NEVER posted about, watched or showed up to any GAME ever again WE WOULD STILL HAVE SPORTS this year and for years to come.


But understand this. That's why your threats are empty, and you run to this board or that board to be a keyboard Klansman to get validation of your DUMB shite and you find a few.

SOLUTION: STOP talking about it and just DO IT!
MAKE this your last night supporting sports where 90% of the participants are black and for some reason, they believe their life should matter.

NO NEED to post here again. Do not be a LIAR on top of a racist. You said you would be DONE; it’s happening again so step up be a MAN or a WOMAN show us NEVER COME BACK AGAIN!!

PLEASE LEAVE SPORTS

I don’t care to be honest. I don’t get myself worked up over what other people believe in. I stand and remove my cap for the national anthem because that’s what I believe in. Some people don’t. We move on with life.

Already decided that this is my last year of tix for football and baseball. LSU lost me when they supported a Marxist organization, BLM, and lit the high school colors of a career felon at Tiger Stadium.

They could have supported other organizations truly interested in black lives, including those that abhor black on black crime. I could support that. However, they took the convenient path and sold out.

Anyone know if diplomas cause chafing?

personally yes I am a mega person big time but unlike you I don't care to see that or any of that other BLM statements on any uniform none of that belongs in college football.

They start allowing that donations will drop.

You forgot one, "JEWS WILL NOT REPLACE US"
Or "I love the poorly educated, they're the most LOYAL" that seems fitting!

What you forget is college football needs the white man in order to survive you racist pos. Without the white mans money there is no big time football or NFL.
