Somebody Explain To Me What Walking Out On Games And Practices Does To Improve Race Relations

[occupied]

The only black people you pay attention to are athletes therefore the responsibilty falls to them to carry the message inside the bubble white America lives in.

1. Which is not true.

2. And if they hate us, then we should stop watching them, or any sport they dominate. Fuck them all.

They do not hate you. They are protesting an unjust justice system.

Personally, I think what the NBA, MLB, NHL, and the NFL are all doing to protest the killing of a black criminal is counterproductive.
What do they want to prove by walking out on practices and cancelling games?
The only thing it is doing is contributing to the hatred and division in this country.
What do all of you think of this?
Not one player ever took a knee for David Dorn, a retired police officer who was executed by looters when he tried to protect his business.

Not one player ever took a knee or walked out of practice after the execution murder of 5 year old Cannon Hinnant by his next door neighbor.

Dorn was black....Cannon Hinnant was just an innocent little boy, but the NBA and the other leagues couldn't care less....because the left doesn't care about normal Americans. All they seem to care about is what happens to criminals. This is the message these people are sending. The NFL and other leagues only support violence and destruction. Their selective outrage rings extremely hollow in light of all of the chaos that Democrats and their supporters have caused and will continue to cause until we do something to stop it.

Professional athletes need to look inwards.....and think about what they're doing. They need stop jumping on the bandwagon with Marxists and looters and become decent Americans. They need to stop encouraging criminals to roam our streets and subject everyone around them to violence and chaos. And it they want to keep making millions to play a game......they had better stop helping Democrats ruin this country.

It is their freedom and liberty to protest and now they are doing it with their wallets since kneeling was too insulting to the authoritarians.

Sitting out is “protesting with their wallets”?

Do you EVER make sense?

Yes I do, since these athletes won't be getting paid for not playing they are protesting with their wallets.. Do try to keep up with the adults.

I don't know why this needs to be such a fucking mystery.

Well, actually, I do. Just kidding.

We pay attention to athletes playing games we like to watch. Sports is supposed to be entertainment, a diversion from our daily grind. Making divisive politics part of it is bound to ostracize people, many nonpolitical, who don't feel like being lectured to by anyone, less so by people who's fame is due to physical ability. It's the same disdain many have for actors pontificating about their cause de jure.

I suggest you do what we did years ago, go play the sports yourself if you want them so badly.

I pay for my cable and $50-$150 per ticket when I go to live games because I want to watch the best play the best, not play the game myself. Your comparison doesn't work because the whole idea of Professional sports is the top 0.00001% of the population that is awesome at the given game plays for others amusement.

I want to watch the games, maybe have a moment of silence before the anthem for whatever cause they want to promote. They can even go to town promoting said causes in their interviews and their own personal enterprises.

But when the anthem is played, I don't listed to the people who kneel, or protest during it. You lose me there. I also don't go for them picking a side, which they are doing, between which lives matter more, black ones of police officer ones.

BLM is an organization and Marxist movement., blm is a concept. They support blm but BLM get the credit and the publicity.

So what if one of these athletes wears or produces something with the line ACAB?

Also are other players who want to support the police being silenced by peer pressure? Will one of them coming forward result in their being suspended, traded, or even blacklisted?

1. "racist" is one of the most poisonous and harmful slurs to call someone in our culture today.

2. THe premise of BLM and the act of telling us their message, is that we White Americans are racists and don't believe it, or at least don't care about their lives.

3. YOur pretense that this is limited to the justice system is bullshit.

4. Their hate is clear. If there is such a huge gulf, then the practice of us celebrating their athletic achievements, and identifying with them, as "our"' teams, is obviously flawed.

5 We should just stop it. Perhaps bring back segregated sports. They have their, and we get to have sports stars that actually like us and can manage to go a few weeks without insulting us.

There is always the zoo and the planetarium. I don't have cable nor do I pay to stream and I don't watch pro sports because they don't have anything to offer me. I was a jock for many years and I have absolutely no interest in it anymore I prefer to garden and see the world for what is truly is interesting and beautiful.

Somebody Explain To Me What Walking Out On Games And Practices Does To Improve Race Relations


It sends a message that some things are bigger than a “game”

Keep radicalizing the games and the platform will weaken until it becomes meaningless.

Athletes admitting there are things more important than their silly games.

Ali refusing to go to Vietnam
Kareem refusing to go to the Olympics
Smith and Carlos raising fists in the air.

Michael Jordan when asked why he didn’t oppose racist Jesse Helms in his home state of North Carolina.......Republicans buy shoes too

Their silly games are why many of them are wealthy, and have provided for their families. The fans pay for all that. Piss them off and the revenue goes down.

Of course sports fans have taken it in the ass before and come back, but there is always a breaking point.

Except they will still be getting paid regardless.

They haven’t sacrificed a damn thing.

Everyone who just read the bolded, now has coffee all over their keyboard. Coming from the official forum retard, that is hilarious.

They will not be getting paid if they don't play their contracts have no way to force anyone to pay them without performing. That is how a pro-players contract works, if they get cut by a team no pay, injury they get workmans comp or insurance pay but not for refusing to play.

You really think the NBA is going to dock them for the games they postponed, or if they decide to not play the rest of the playoffs?

They rescheduled three games. That’s it.

No loss of game check.

No nothing.

Understand?

It's so sickening how MLB continues to force their political correctness down our throats with always celebrating Jackie Robinson day.....why can't these people get over it already??

and Jackie Robinson was no angel....he joined the Black Panthers while he was in the military...and he was nearly court-martialed....and he wasn't even all that good...

You don't see them doing this for white baseball players....

They aren't doing it with their wallets.
The whole team walked out, and they won't dock their pay one cent.
The people that will be protesting with their wallets is the fans that decide to walk out on these overpaid individuals.

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

The Olympics have never been the same and most likely ruined for ever when these racist black thugs tried to force their BLM crap on the world during the Olympics...all to try to make America look bad....if they hated it so much, why didn't they leave America?

This is how stupid you conservatives sounded then and this how stupid you sound now...and just like history has shown that the conservatives who were whining about Ali's protest or what these men did in '68, were on the wrong side of history....the same will be said for the conservatives whining today...

Wow. THAT is a pretty scary statement. You really think it's an athlete's responsibility to talk about social justice? They are doing nothing but displaying ignorance for the facts and showing selective outrage. The OP is right, their actions are divisive, not inclusive. But the good news is fans can't attend the games so no one is really seeing the garbage anyway. Think about it, is it really a protest if no fans are in attendance, the athletes aren't losing anything and the "protests" happen on someone else's dime? Wow, athletes are really putting skin in the game. LOL
