Oh Dabo...

Oh bother. I am ready for the Covid again. This is just utter bullshit. Where does it end?

I am no history buff but suspect that all of the founding fathers were slave owners. At the time it was the cool thing to do. So do we wipe history clean? Not far from it now. My upcoming freshman has learned more US history from his mother, myself, and TV which is pure bullshit.

I know for one, my poor cracker ass cracker family did not own any people. Hell I think we may have been white slaves. I ain't mad about it. Pull your head out of your ass, go to work, make money, make a family, hope for health and move the fuck on!!

[Jozie & Me]

Is Deshawn gonna make Houston change its name? Is he gonna refuse to play for a town named for a slave owner? Is Hopkins gonna donate all that money he made playing in a slave town?

Money talks, and double standards get sooooo confusing.

These athletes really should get back to entertaining & stop with sharing their political views. No one gives a shit what they think. We wanna watch you play. Just like we wanna watch singers sing & actors act. I don't give a damn about their opinion on anything else.

We surely do have Clemson grad Nimrata Haley to thank for a lot of this cancel history culture, but she had a lot of help...

Until y'all stop letting 18-21 year old athletes dictate your Saturday mood, their opinions matter. Don't spend another penny on ungrateful athletes, pro down to amateurs.

I love your dedication and sincerity. Never change, Rick. You are a diamond (in the rough).

It was a matter of time before this filtered down to college and high school. The black lash will be different than the NFL.

100%. Don't love 'em when they're scoring TD's and helping “us" win "natties" and then hate 'em when they ask for something in return.

Kapernik dude is half white anyway.

Why can't entertainers of all varieties just shut the fuck up and do what they get paid to do?

Sadly you are so wrong about so many people. I assume that you and I could careless but the rest of the nation? Just look at how many "followers" on social media these athletes, singers and actors have. Its crazy.

Oh it's rampant. The same folks that will tell you an actor/actress, musician, sportscaster and athlete needs to sit down and shut up will turn right around and quote/share something written/said by an actor/actress, musician, sportscaster and athlete if it fits inside their own echo chamber.

Well James Woods is the exception. That's one funny dude.

I'm glad you (particularly) said it.

The building was named in 1981, so relatively speaking, we're not talking about a real"historical" issue. I'm not in favor of shakedowns, but this one is tame in comparison to most I've seen. It's an easy way for the school to show their actual support for a group of guys who've already given exponentially more to them.

And for the people asking "why now", how many of y'all would've taken such a stand when you were 18-20 years old? With no stage or supporting cast? You don't know his heart, so don't assume his intent. That mentality played a role in getting us to where we are now.

We all have to dance to music we didn’t pick at some point in our lives. And you play that game until you get to a position where you pick the music.

Your post reminds me of this scene from Bull Durham.




Now that these guys are “in the show” they feel they get to pick the music. It’s what comes from either having or thinking you have FU money and talent.
