Yeah the PGA tour has communists on it. Why would you support a sport that openly allows communists. You buying clubs and balls and greens fees goes to supporting communism.
They actually have a PGA tour china too.
By default you support communism.
If not, your point is pretty damn horrific

I'd try avoiding threads about NFL ratings being low for a start.

A lot of virtue signalers in here complaining about people boycotting the NFL need to relax. Millions of less people watching football does not impact y’all. Don’t worry about it, calm down. Nobody is banning football, it’s just people no longer watching it.
No one is complaining. This is just a reaction to everyone who felt the need to let the board know they are no longer watching the NFL and/or other sports.
The only people who need to calm down are those overreacting about what teams do during the national anthem as if people ever paid attention to what others do during the national anthem until the media told them that they had to be outraged.

go start a thread on any board about the NFL and half the replies will be "frick the NFL"
doesn't matter how innocuous the topic will be
but yes, its definitely the people that are making fun of the incessant virtue signaling that need to calm down

Ummm yeah they have an entire tour dedicated to China.
30 seconds of someone kneeling doing something American like freedom of speech gets your butt in a bind. Fact is you never cared about the NFL in the first place. There aren't communists earning money in the NFL. Sounds like you are all for communists taking Americans money back to their homeland. Kinda sad.
Just more virtue signalling.

The DoD has paid the NFL millions for it as a recruitment tool.

Y'all made the comparison not me. I listed another political message displayed by the NFL in the past.
And what NFL team rioted yesterday?

I am seriously wondering how respecting and honoring troops is political to you
As a left leaner, are you saying you naturally hate soldiers?

This is the 2nd time you said this. It seems like you are the one who is worked up so you are trying to fight back by telling people "to calm down".

Do you think "political" only means "american political parties" or something? The word has a broader meaning.

relating to the government or the public affairs of a country.
The DoD paying to send a certain message is political. The NFL didn't do this out if the goodness of their heart. They did it for some $$$. Just like painting end racism on end zones.

Yeah that's exactly what I said.

Military protects our constitutional rights like those to peacefully protest. You can like it or not, but it is truth.
Freedoms of speech is the first amendment for a reason.

Military recruitment has existed as a bipartisan/nonpartisan function of colonial, confederation, or federal government in America since 1775. Yes, it can be argued that that any government action is innately political, but that is about as pedantic of a take as it gets, when juxtaposed against the backdrop of fricking BLM.
