According to a report, the National Football League is preparing to roll out even more social justice messaging in the 2021 season and will also make the 'black national anthem' a prominent part of all major league events.
Up to a few years ago, I was a diehard Pittsburgh Steelers fan, having watched since the early 1970's, but all that changed when the 'new NFL' came into existence. In this new regime, millionaire crybaby footballers who make obscene fortunes for throwing and catching a ball are allowing to disrespect, malign and insult the nation that made them rich and famous. 2021 will be my third season where I will watch not one, single minute of play of any game played at any time.
"For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus" Galatians 3:26 (KJB)
What the NFL is doing is not 'fighting racism', they are in fact fostering and spreading racism by their actions. Think about it, 3 out of every 4 football players in the NFL are black or brown, with only 1 out of every 4 white. When it was more white people than black people, they said that was racist, but now that there are more blacks than whites they still aren't happy. Does anyone else find that odd? It's only odd until you realize why these things are happening. It has nothing to do with racism and everything to do with power and control.
I have taken my old Steelers jersey and shirts to Goodwill, and bid a fond good riddance to the National Social Football Justice League. I will not and cannot support you on any level.

NFL to Increase Social Justice Messaging, Play ‘Black National Anthem’ at Major Events
FROM BREITBART NEWS: A source recently told Front Office Sports that the NFL is “bringing back a lot of [social justice] elements from last year,” including helmet decals with left-wing messages, sideline signage, and the playing of the song “Lift Ev’ry Voice and sing” — the purported “black national anthem” — major events.
The source told Front Office that the 2021 social justice effort may even be bigger than previous campaigns.
For one, there will be more slogans such as this below:
The themes for some of the campaigns this year includes, “It Takes All of Us,” “End Racism,” and “Inspire Change.”
It isn’t clear if every TV partner will broadcast the playing of the national anthem — which will be followed this season by “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing” — but Front Office noted that at least NBC has agreed to air both songs. The NFL insider added that it will impose the “black national anthem” on all special events such as the Super Bowl, the playoffs, the draft and other such special broadcasts.
The source also said that going forward all players will be free to protest against the U.S.A. in any way they choose, as long as it is a “peaceful protest.”
Front Office added that it is possible the flood of social justice protests and messages harmed the league’s TV ratings:
At the height of player protests during the 2016-17 seasons, the league’s once impregnable TV audiences plummeted 8% and 10% respectively.
As the protests receded, the NFL’s TV audiences bounced back to grow 5% apiece during the 2018-2019 seasons.
But average audiences fell 8% to 15.1 million viewers in 2020 as the league embraced social justice messaging on helmets, warm-up gear, fields and stadiums.
With the pandemic in the rear-view mirror, the NFL might have been poised for a comeback in the ratings. But another wave of intrusive social justice virtue signaling may put a crimp in that increase. READ MORE
