Then why are only the politically expedient cases mentioned or taped onto helmets? Why nothing about those I mentioned?

Im not "ignorant on all of this" he listed some names that I admit I am ignorant on. Which if I looked into it and researched it I probably wouldn't come to the same conclusions as you guys because we rarely come to the same conclusions on anything

Maybe they're afraid to get canceled who knows but I do know one thing black athletes absolutely care about their fellow black folk. Maybe not all but some definitely do

That is you trying to avoid cognitive dissonance. Stay ignorant, it will make your poor argument continue to seem strong in your mind.

For some unknown reason I was watching an NBA game the other day and they are of course discussing social justice issues for the hundreth time in the middle of a game and, not kidding, smug Mark Jackson asks the pbp guy "Have they arrested the police officers that killed Breonna Taylor yet?".

Why do they only care about the black folk?

They don't care about the white folk who are killed by the police, even though there's roughly twice as many whites killed every year.

Hell, they don't care about the black folk that are killed by other black folk, a number that dwarfs those killed by police.

This time last year my work productivity was at a minimum. All me and my coworkers did was talk LSU football.
This year, I don’t even think we’ve mention Chase sitting out. We just don’t care because we know how political it’s turned and that’s not why we tune in.

I'm normally in 3 fantasy football leagues. All 3 leagues are with completely different groups of people. There hasn't been a single peep from anyone in any of those leagues about playing this year. I mean, NFL is starting tomorrow and there was never even a text asking if anyone wanted to play.

I look forward to the day Chapter 11 Bankruptcies begin being filed, pro team by pro team, every major sport.

Oh and when every $$$$$ bloated ego disguised as an athlete finds his contract is worthless. And every kid’s dream to become a great sports legend (and rich) evaporates with the morning dew.


I am doing my best to make it happen.

Maybe they should care more about those innocent black children that are being killed but I’m sure you know why they don’t

That’s borne out of their own arrogance that their stance won’t affect their career.

Drew catches hell every time he post anything. You have a few cuck defenders but most people tell him frick off. Drew just kneels and takes it, not man enough to address anyone.

I wasn't sleeping because I was so excited about LSU vs. Texas. Now I'm not sleeping because I'm worried 15 thousand rounds isn't enough.

I threw all my LSU shite away. Even destroyed a unused hat so no one else could wear it. Unless it’s my imagination, I see much less purple and gold than I used to.
