John from Riverside Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 22 minutes ago, Buffalo619 said: Exactly. I don’t care about a players race, personality, or opinions. Do your job, entertain the the fans and go home. Celebrities and Athletes have one objective, to entertain. Nothing more. As fans, we sometimes confuse them for role models when really all they are are sell outs. Lebron for example. Athletes have the right to THEIR opinions as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they were invited to the 'critical thinker' meeting either. Sounds super exclusive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a warning and it could save the sport. Change now before it’s too late. This is a slippery slope, politics and sports don’t mix. A slippery slope to what, exactly?

They are going to continue to do so. Now there will be end zone messages as well. So there. Its happening. What now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what really bothers mooks like this is that athletes have a platform that THEY dont.....and so they dont want to see it Yet it is perfectly acceptable for the sitting president to use the White House lawn as his bully pulpit to lie, degrade people, and lie some more 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
