NFL HQ is in Manhattan; that's where this crap is coming from...

And of that, how many are current or likely future NFL fans? I would imagine that number is still FAR less than 1%.

I abhor unnecessary, vapid, virtue signaling. Which is ALL this is.

No NFL fan was sitting around thinking "Gosh, I'm looking forward to the upcoming NFL season, but I really need to know the league's position on transgender issues before deciding whether or not to watch." So why make a statement about an issue NONE of your customers cared about? This statement is MORE LIKELY to turn more people AWAY from the NFL than attract them to it.

NO ONE would have cared if the NFL did not make a statement about this. So why make it?

Kind of a weird statement to put out there, when the bigger issues they would face with the gay/transgender community would come from within. Gay players feared coming forward when they played because of the backlash they would get within their own locker rooms. They weren't in fear of a fan potentially no longer cheering for them, they had to worry about how team executives & coaches would react. How would their teammates react to them on/off the field?

If I were 18 and doing enrollment now it would certainly cross my mind to register as non-binary to increase my access to aid and opportunities.

And the majority of that audience will have committed suicide by the time the nfl really pretends to care about them.

I thought the same thing until earlier this year when I read something on The Rant about Kramer’s mom coming here to coach a team composed completely of women (weird, huh?) who will try to play basketball. It must be something new, because I never knew it existed.


The joke obviously went right over your head.

Found the triggered liberal.

They’re trying to make us hate it and abandon it. They want to destroy everything that makes America “America”. They’re pushing white hate and homosexuality on us at an alarming rate. They’re pushing us, daring us to do something. Then they can point the finger and say “see, we told ya so! White Americans are crazy!” Or they make us hate everything we used to love and it all dies out naturally. We’re fricked!


They're kind of messing up the whole "circus" part of the "bread and circuses"

Well they don't really have to worry about transgender women (men?) coming to take their jobs do they?

Just in case the kneeling, cop haiting, and overpaid multi-millionaires crying how unfair life is, started to fade, the NFL is here to reassure you, they really do hate money.


I'm kinda hoping Rodgers does leave Green Bay.

When they are shitty I'll be less likely to be drawn to watch.

I think the fact that the word football has "BALL" in it pretty much means it's Male.

Doesn't seem really complicated.

Ballerina has BALL in it also. Does that also pretty much mean it’s male?


Seems a little complicated....
