Virtue-Signaling Saps Of The Decade: The NFL

The NFL, which maims its players for profit, presumes that its fans are cretins whose attitudes and conduct will be influenced by fatuous messages in stadium end zones. How insulting.

All 32 teams will feature an inspiring (gag!) end zone message of at each home game. The options are “End Racism,” “Stop Hate,” “Choose Love” and “Inspire Change.” “It Takes All of Us” will be stenciled in the opposite end zone for all games.

This is so cynical and transparently insincere that I don’t know how to characterize it. I thought the kneeling was stupid, but these messages are beyond belief. All these years trying to conquer hate and racism, when the solution was so simple! Just put messages in football stadium end zones! Problem solved.

    • There is a story circulating that during one of the many meetings on the subject one naive idealist suggested adding “End Virtue Signaling” to the list before he was redirected to any job he wanted outside the NFL.

      Have a pleasant weekend and keep the faith…🤠

  1. English and European soccer has been doing this for decades. The players all kneel on one knee in the middle of the field before the game kicks off and the TV announcer solemnly intones “End racism!” It’s ridiculous. But of course, the various soccer thugs throughout the continent lead the world in vicious treatment of players from Africa and former colonies, of whom there are a great many. Personally, I think the U.S. is much less racist that Europe and most of the rest of the world. But lots of NFL owners are buying soccer teams, so I think that “end racism” thing has kind of seeped into the NFL’s PR thinking.
