NFL Opener 'Racial Unity' Movement sees Stadium Erupt in Boos

Who would have thought that sports fans just want to watch... sports?

Thursday night's return of the NFL which saw the Kansas City Chiefs host the Houston Texans began with an “End Racism” message of unity (words which were also emblazoned at the end of the field).

As Mediaite details, things went downhill despite the special display: "The Kansas City Chiefs hosted the Houston Texans Thursday evening for the NFL’s opening game of the 2020 season, and intended to provide a show of unity by locking armswith their teammates and opponents before the game — but the solemnity of the moment was ruined by fans booing in the stands."

During the moment of unity between the Texans and Chiefs, some fans responded by booing.pic.twitter.com/qRnle1XiJg— Yahoo Sports (@YahooSports) September 11, 2020

Yes it's confirmed, not just in this latest booing incident, but Gallup polling shows the Great Awokening of professional sports isalienating many, perhaps most:

The sports industry now has a negative image, on balance, among Americans as a whole, with 30% viewing it positively and 40% negatively, for a -10 net-positive score. This contrasts with the +20 net positive image it enjoyed in 2019, when 45% viewed it positively and 25% negatively.

This slide in the sports industry’s image comes as professional and college leagues are struggling, and not always successfully, to maintain regular schedules and playing seasons amid the pandemic. Professional football, baseball and basketball games have also become focal points for public displays of support for the Black Lives Matter movement.

Don't have a problem with the unity thing. Just go out and do it in the parking lot on your on damn time. People are there to see a game. Do your job. Be political on your time.

If it were really about racial unity which it is not.

This bastard looters and murderers movement is about anti white Marxism.

Screw you!

Hey JJ .. what color were the majority who fought and died during the Civil War? Oh, right, they were white. What systemic racists. And, what was the color of the President who led the country during the Civil War, knowing that hundreds of thousands of white men would die to try to free the slaves? Oh, right, he and the warriors were white. And what color were the majority who supported the Civil Rights Act? Oh, right, they were white. And what color were the majority who supported the election of President Obama? Oh, right, they were white. In fact, they were white TWICE!!! And what color is the majority of people who pay your damn salary, and the salary of your teammates? Oh, right, they are white fans. You and your teammates are pathetic, anti-American hypocrites. You and your family should be ashamed. I hope that all fans just say NO. Do not support any anti-American sports league. Have a mind, and a conscience (unlike the athletes), and JUST SAY NO. It kills me, because I love sports. But I can no longer support radicals who want to (or in blind ignorance choose to) undermine the greatest country in the world. SHAME ON YOU, YOU PATHETIC PHONY.

bwahahaha, Im sure you have had an issue with all the other pregame, halftime, postgame, and in game messages public campaigns the NFL has undertaken for all these years huh. Everyone sees through your BS

This is nothing more than ANTI WHITE RACE CRIME. They all should be locked up. The NFL should be fined for racial remarks and creating an hostile environment for WHITE PEOPLE. Can you imagine if the roles were reversed?? The BLACKS would be tearing up the stadium.

Nothing screams unity by forcing people to applause your protest and shaming them if they do not. Especially when the people protesting are all 1 percenters. They have a right to protest but Americans no longer have the right to disagree. If you do chances are social media bandits will get you fired.

Think about it. Would a black....say doctor, oh, I don't know maybe like a Ben Carson (obviously has some political opinions) ever even think about sitting down in a consultation ( performing his job) with a person of any color or nationality and make any statement to them about a political opinion or issue. These boys are being paid far too much to play a game. They are not professionals. They are expendable. Bring on the boos!
