Just a reminder that the new #XFL will not hire players who have arrest records and will make sure that all of its players stand for the national anthem.

Vince McMahon’s wife, Linda, served in the Trump administration for 2 years.
sportsbusinessdaily.com/Daily/Issues/2…
McMahon on controlling the players:

“We want to entertain that’s what we do. There are not going to be any politics involved with this thing. We’re not going to have any social issues involved. People want to be entertained. It’s the entertainment value that sometimes is lost.”
Introducing, the new #XFL, from the same entertainment company who brought you the #BigBossMan, a Confederate flag wearing cop who beat you if you stepped out of line.

2010 Clip: #PeteButtigieg pledged not to take money from Wall Street banks while running for state treasurer.

“It creates a conflict of interest. It creates an appearance...like pay to play.” -#MayorPete
*same 2010 interview*

#PeteButtigieg’s low ethical expectations of his Illinois neighbors:

“Now I don’t want to pick on our neighbors to the west, but anytime you’re falling behind Illinois in any reform, ethics, or transparency issue I think that’s a bit of a wake up call.“
Pete has low reform, ethics, and transparency expectations for his Chicago neighbors yet took in a big haul of cash from them.

The NFL is unwilling to confront the racist and nationalistic expectations of it’s fan base. Kap is unwilling to give up his free speech rights.

On top of this, Trump has violated US law by influencing NFL employment decisions. Doubt this is over.
A player shouldn’t have to give up his free speech rights for employment.

Trump violated 18 U.S. Code § 227 “Wrongfully influencing a private entity’s employment decisions by [the] executive branch”
This statute applies to President Trump who attempted to influence the NFL (private entity) in speeches at his MAGA rallies (partisan political affiliation) to fire (employment decision) NFL players who excercise their free speech rights protesting.

Four different Fox shows ran segments this morning on Beyonce and Jay-Z not standing for the national anthem at the Super Bowl.

Meanwhile, "As others stand at attention for anthem, Trump fidgets, points, pretend-conducts the band" hrld.us/2Oour2N
Here's the Fox & Friends segment, which of course segues to a Colin Kaepernick discussion.
Some fun feedback from a Fox & Friends First viewer: "They need to live somewhere else if they can't bother to stand for the National Anthem."

2020 in the business of sport? Consider this A to Z thread of things to keep an eye on as your cheat sheet for a new year. #sportsbiz
A - ATP Cup: Men’s #tennis has yet another team event joining its cluttered calendar to sit alongside the Davis Cup and Laver Cup, as the politics of the sport play out in public. The ATP’s new management have lots to do - hopefully it includes developing a mixed team tournament.
B - Budapest: Quietly and confidently emerging as Europe’s latest major events host, with a trio of @EURO2020 games, the expanded @FedCup finals in April and the start of May’s @giroditalia making this a big year. An Olympic host in the 2030s?

Americans for Job Security previously claimed it was not a political org & did not have to disclose its donors. But after years of litigation, CREW convinced the FEC otherwise. AJS filed a list of its backers and beneficiaries from 2010 to 2012 on Thursday.

PETITION: Keep NFL reps off our military bases. The NFL maintains a “Corporate Policy” of Condoning Disrespect to our Flag. View attached 5 Gold Star comments. (Put a Like on this post if you agree. It will be sent to Mil Base HQs planning to host NFL reps. Forward this to ALL).
Vet:
“It stands for the ultimate sacrifice for as a Cdr in Iraq, the flag was draped over seven of my Soldiers as they left Iraq in body bags. They arrived home to grieving family who universally were comforted by the honor of having our nations colors draped over their coffin”.
Gold Star Mother:
“When the NFL kneels...they might as well be spitting in my husband and my children’s faces. And spitting on my son’s grave!! Please reconsider which side you want to be on... God blessed America I just pray He saves her”.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
