Y'all know this football season will be an absolute shitshow for those not "down," right?

This will be the pinnacle of pandering, the likes we've never seen before. The death of a 7 time felon (who was committing a felony when he died) has made this country lose it's collective mind.

I thought that having to deal with the public panic from the Wuhan China virus was going to make it impossible to watch but damn if we haven't topped our own level of stupidity.

The black players will kneel in droves, mostly because kids are kids and mostly react on emotion rather than logic and facts.

White players will be forced to kneel because if they don't they'll of course be racist to the core and vilified like no other.

Coaches will kneel, mostly out of a sense of unity with their said emotionally reactive players.

Millions upon millions of dollars will be spent on advertising to show all us dupes how "woke" Corporation "X" is.

More millions and millions will be spent to this kind of training and that kind of training so we can make sure all the players are aware and able to deal with the horrible and rampant racism in our nation.

Players are going to demand to get paid, despite the fact that they get fed 3 meals a day, receive top notch tutoring, receive clothing, a housing allowance, and get a $200,000 education.

All the while the media and everyone are going to be trying to convince us all how evil we are for simply having the good fortune to be born in the greatest country civilization has ever known.

While they're tripping over themselves they're to totally miss the important point that people like me love our country more than we love football. We respect the 1.3 million American lives that have been sacrificed more than we respect Johnny Quarterback and his cause.

They will not have learned a fricking thing from the NFL damn near suiciding itself just a few years ago.

It is going to be an absolute clownshow to the nth degree and it's pathetic.

Colleges should defund sports and any money spent on it and scholarship players should be spent on fighting racial injustice. It’s only right

Been a huge college football fan most of my life, never have really got into the NFL. Been rethinking my priorities, college football is near the bottom of my list.

I'm curious how many coaches have promised recruits they'll kneel with them during games just to get them to sign? I hope that doesn't happen or I'm out.

I cancelled ESPN.
I have told my wife no football on TV for the entire season.
I'm pissed, not at losing football, but at degenerate totalitarian leftism.

Honestly, I'm not even going to watch college or pro because I know it'll just be a political shite show for both.

Anyone attending, watching, or donating/buying tickets from a CFB or NFL team is directly supporting 100+people who are going to use their public platform to push for democrats to win election and the black lives matter agenda.

Time to give up a bit of entertainment for 1 year to send a message.

3.5 hours of an NFL game only equate to around 27 minutes of actual game play. The rest is dead time, commercials, refs. Already a horrible product. Now throw in all the kneeling activism.

We were in St Lucia on our honeymoon some years back when the cricket world cup was on. Apparently the West Indies had some bad arse. The locals were obsessed. It made the little pub very fun.

I won't know because my TV is staying off.

The popular culture is poisonous. It's impossible to block it all out, but you need to block out as much as you can if your principles mean something to you. Our only power in this - short of violence - is making these stands cost something for the money class. If it begins to hurt their back pockets, they'll drop the BLM love like a hot rock.

For the reasons you listed, my chances of being in tiger stadium this year are slim and none. I refuse to support or watch a program that is going to do this.

zero fricks given.

not watching a minute of it

sadly gambling will prop up that shitshow but hopefully many owners lose their asses. Nothing would be better than seeing all theses idiots offered dunkin donuts type wages and told take it or leave it for playing a game or get a real job. If the sheeple fans stopped paying for merchandise and tickets AND stopped viewership they would crash.

Hopefully there’s lots of boos, followed by lots of empty seats if nothing changes.
