NFL to stencil 'End Racism' on end zone borders as part of social justice rollout for kickoff week

I just decided I won't be watching any football this season, or perhaps ever.

'End Racism' stencil part of NFL social justice plan​

As part of the NFL's ongoing commitment to social justice programs, the messages "It Takes All of Us" and "End Racism" will be stenciled on all end zone borders for home openers, the league office informed clubs in a memo Monday obtained by ESPN.​

​

The two messages of inclusion, which will be stenciled on opposite end zones during kickoff week, are key elements of the league's broader, multifaceted rollout intended to highlight its efforts to support diversity and inclusion while the new season begins.​

​

The end zone messages demonstrate "how football and the NFL brings people together to work as one and use our example and our actions to help conquer racism," the memo reads. The memo also confirms that players will have the option to wear helmet decals honoring victims of systemic racism.​

​

"Each player will have the option to honor an individual by displaying that person's name via a decal on the back of their helmet," the memo reads. "Players will be offered a list of names and short biographical information to help guide their decision-making, however, they can also select a victim of systemic racism who is not represented on this list." If coaches desire, they can honor victims of systemic racism by wearing patches on their hats.​

​

Additionally, the league will recognize essential workers on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.​

Well one thing this shows you is that some are starting to realize that the Black Lives Matter slogan has been co-opted and rendered toxic.

Trump owes his election to White Supremacy, imho:

What a White Supremacist Told Me After Donald Trump Was Elected

 

[bripat9643]

I used to pay for the NFL ticket so I could watch every game if I wanted....and I would purchase game replay and red zone...I was a Raider fan and had a room filled with their merchandise but when the NFL began to move over seas and gave so much power and money to greedy players and their greedy agents the game fell apart for me....I sold or tossed all of my NFL crap and turned it off for good after the knee debacle....
I cancelled game replay and the ticket and haven't watched an NFL game since...the NFL is dead to me just like the NBA and just like what the MLB is working towards....I'm not a racist and I won't be treated like one by a league I pay to enjoy....I was born in the dark but it wasn't last night......

The quip goes "I was born at night, but it wasn't last night."

I'm surprised it didn't die when they marched down a street in NYC chanting "pigs in a blanket. Fry them like bacon!"

The NFL is first and foremost a money making enterprise that is often assisted by taxpayer funds. A few catchy 'advertising' slogans doesn't affect their bottom line.

Now if the NFL was willing to put their money where their mouth is, to truly bring people together, to help conquer racism (and misogyny), they would field teams that look like the people of America.

62% white (caucasian)
16.9% hispanic (caucasian also, btw)
12,6% black
5.2% asian

and 50+% female

That would make an solidarity statement worth noting!
(though gate receipts may decline somewhat)

The NFL is a private business in a free country, they can do as they please.

The NFL is a government protected monopoly.

they want to abuse the special privileges they have been given?

time to take those privileges away.

Many of their stadiums are provided using taxpayer dollars. These arrangements should be rescinded so long as they insist on insulting their fans.

I don't...

..why do you?

Sure you do. You support Antifa and BLM. Trump is not a terrorist or a white supremacist.

Antifa and BLM are self-defense reactions to 200 years of white supremacy.

So, you clearly are against ending racism. Gotcha.

Only a brain dead dipshit would believe that those stencils would help end anything...

Sure seems like it's like garlic to a vampire.
