That’s why a while back in a meme showing the nfl singing another anthem I said, who? I’m done. I thought our National Anthem was for EVERYONE who fought and died for this great nation and who lives under the blanket of freedom it provides.🤷🏻‍♂️
 
Not Jamie, but cancel culture is this movement the eliminate anything past or present that may have or currently offends anyone. Washington Redskins, Indians, Warriors, Christopher Columbus, all civil war generals from the south. Only good one I've heard is banning anyone labeled a Democrat. Some Republican congressmen I believe are drafting resolution to have them rename their party since it was founded on complete racism aal the way to the 1990's

Since the 1968 olympics there has
been several attempts by the NACP and other black groups to have congress remove the National Athem because they viewed the 3rd verse as racist

4 relatives served in combat WW II - 4 Served in peace time -
I STAND FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM
SEMPER FI

Thanks - uhm not up on the # tag language
 
Cancel culture took down the statue of Christopher Columbus at city hall here. There’s a petition to rename Columbus “Flavortown” by virtue of Guy Fieri being from here. Which, for the record, I’m not opposed to 😂

. Only thing that will help is if enough people turn it off, but that's not going to happen.

It's a marketing ploy. MLB TV viewing has been in a decline for 25 years. At the same time game attendance has increased significantly but it keeps pace with urban population increases. With Covid they will lose their bread and butter attendance revenue, and as such hope to gain TV viewers. Hence the reason that stupid BLM thing is right on the back of the mound in plain sight for TV viewers. In my opinion they're simply pandering to their urban populations who typically came to a game in hopes that they will start watching on TV.

Agree - they took BLM off the mound for yday game and wore jerseys with Indians on the front - they play fan noise during the game - stands empty - wtf

I’ll be soooooo glad when all these snowflakes get their way and cancel all the shit they have on their wish list so all the killing, crime and oppression of the lazy people and entitled people will stop! Pfffffft!!! Insert sarcasm....
None of this BS will help anything! Evil is evil and people suck! The government turns felons loose by the thousands nationwide so they don’t die of Covid and crime has spiked to all time highs all over and now everyone wonders WTF is going wrong!?!?!
I can go on and on with problems this country has but right now our biggest seems to be the results of what happens when 90% of Academia pushes far left ideals to 2 decades or more of adolescents who have been spoiled, entitled and undisciplined most of their lives. They’ve been taught to hate this country for the negatives of our past instead of our strides toward equality and how far we’ve come since then. Hence the SHTF in these Democratic cities ran by the very soft far left people put in office by their peers. Pretty sad that the greatest country in the nation is so divided when so many from other countries want to come here for the freedom and opportunities it provides but yet those who were born and raised here can’t see it or work hard for it....... PRETTY FUGGIN SAD😐
 
About done with professional sports, I think the only one I'm going to entertain is hockey. When they stop them from being able to fight, I'll be done with that too.
