You should read it. It’s written by a middle aged black man who at least has the common sense to recognize agenda driven people who prey on others using their celebrity status.

Well written, a lot of solid points made here

You’re more focused on the author of the content than the actual content itself in the article. What part of the article do you disagree with?

When was there a worse signing for the Saints than this malcontent? Byrd? Browner? Junior? MJ might be the worst of them all after what he did to Brees.

From liberal colleges?

You said nothing about what he wrote.

Perfectly explains how Jenkins is full of crap on many levels. Coach Payton is a SJW and brought in this load mouth. Much like his multi millionaire buddy Collin, he is a rich, egotistical guy who appreciates nothing. It will be interesting to see how this Jenkins experiment works out.

Exactly. Some feel like Whitlock is just going after a different targeted crowd, but so what? He actually makes fair and valid points. Even if they don't believe he is sincere.. I actually do, but that is irrelevant.

For black men and boys football is essential business. It provides a structure to develop discipline, an environment to connect with male role models, an activity to channel aggressive energy, a pathway out of the ghetto to a college campus and, for the extremely blessed, a revenue-generator that allows them to positively change the lives of the people they love.
I understand concern over COVID-19. But that concern doesn’t render the industry that has created more black male millionaires than any other American industry nonessential.
Malcolm Jenkins thinks he’s the brains who can fix the criminal justice system. He doesn’t even understand the importance of his own industry. Does he think football is nonessential for Joe Burrow, Chase Young, Jeff Okaduh, Tua Tagovailoa and the other rookies just starting their careers?
How about the kid who was like me in 1985, living in a 400-square-foot, one-bedroom apartment with his dad in the ’hood? Football was my only way to college. Despite never getting a whiff of the NFL, getting a football scholarship to Ball State University changed my life and eventually changed the lives of my mom and dad.
I’m not saying we have to play football this season. But I’m disappointed that Malcolm Jenkins, someone who has greatly benefited from the game, would go on an agenda-driven, football-hating TV network and call the game nonessential.

It's an opinion piece. He even prefaced it with "You'd have to think...". He didn't speak matter of fact what they thought.
