I have been a lifelong Dodger, Lakers and Rams fan. Sports have been an integral part of my life. High school sports were the primary incentives for me to bring my butt to school and to get myself through high school and eventually into college. If what is happening in sports
doesn't shock and scare you, you are wearing blinders. These sports figures are celebrating chaos, the denigration of our nation and our constitution. Drew Brees speaks up and he was forced into an apology. Brian Urlacher speaks up and he is quieted and disowned by the Bears.
Advertisers pull contract deals from athletes that don't step into line. The Chinese communist party can successfully threaten the NBA for speaking out for the freedom of those in Hong Kong and the NBA acquiesces. Like it or not many of our youth who don't understand that Lebron
James is a basketball player who may not have the life experiences or education to truly understand the issues and will listen to these false narratives from these athletes, their heroes, and believe every word of it false or not. Cities are being burned and looted based on a
false narrative of racist police killing black citizens. Criminals are being celebrated as martyrs & when you agree to patronize these sports you are giving your consent to squelch free speech & accepting this false narrative being used to divide America.
The only way we can force change is to withhold our dollars. It seriously sucks to imagine a life without sports but it certainly sucks less than a life without our constitution and it's protections. #MLB , #NBA , #NFL
