Hopefully others feel like us.
frick them. These entitled athletes need a dose of reality.

Sadly, few people will actually turn off the crap sports.

Watch F1, they allow 30 seconds at the beginning for whoever wants to kneel or reflect in a moment of silence. Then everyone stands for whatever country's national anthem.

Then you are free to openly hate the only black guy in the sport because he always wins and comes off as a bit of a hypocrite.

I'd bet televised chess would require the commentators to root for the black chess pieces.

As big a sports fan as I am I have foregone NFL for the past two years and added MLB and NBA to the list. Did not really watch NASCAR but was ready to watch something until Bubba messed it up. Waiting on college sports and if they will be ruined.

Maybe I will just fish, hunt and golf a lot more. Plenty of other things to do in life.

I’ve been watching American Gladiator reruns from the 90’s. That assault course was a bitch.

They would change the rule and black would always go first.

Golf sucked that BLM dick nice and good back in June. At least the CBS broadcast did.

Heard that. Sure will free up my Sundays. And if college ball gets ruined that'll free up the whole weekend.

Pretty much every one of them lives in a tax haven as well to protect their money from socialist politics.

The metoo movement did more change to the sport by removing grid girls, which is almost unforgivable.

CBS golf coverage is terrible, true.

If MLB was too much for you then you’re wasting your time waiting on college sports, or most anything else. After opening night it was pretty much over. Just gotta watch the local feeds and not ESPN. NHL was about the same.

Everybody was going to make a show of it at first but if the players and coaches aren’t beating me over the head with it night after night I’m good.

I just watched the Pelicans. Glad they got their first win in Orlando.

I don't really pay attention to the politics. Its an election year. Just like last time, it will all go away until next time.

When companies, businesses, etc make these decisions to take political action it is just a business move.

Now people can by a jersey and put whatever word or phrase they want on the back. Not a bad idea in order to drive up jersey sells.

But I just like watching the game.
