They're turning in their graves.

I watch the game.

And ONLY the game.

No pregame. It's talking loud and saying nothing.

No anthem.

No coin toss.

No halftime. I watch Bugs Bunny.

No postgame. I change the channel.

And most Black viewers will also tune out in solidarity. Especially if there's country music at halftime. Oh,and if players boycott? Game over.

There'll be a lawsuit by these groups. And threats of boycotts.

Dear Dr. Oz,

I am a mathematician and you and your fat-fuhrer are both morons. Here is a quick % tutorial.

A 25% discount on $100 gives an end price of (1 - 0.25) x $100 = $75

A 650% discount on $100 gives an end price of (1 - 6.5) x $100 = -$550

Things just keep getting more bizarre. The propaganda machine is in full swing the Transportation Security Administration has asked airports to display a video message from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem blaming Democrats for the government shutdown.

ICE hit our area hard again today. I spent the morning and afternoon on patrol, and then came home for Understory, the emotional and spiritual support group for activists I co-facilitate. @tanuja.bsky.social was going to cover for me, but I decided I needed to be there, for my sake. I was right.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

I haven't seen anything on this from a major media network, but there are internet rumors that another bullet was found in the Kirk assassination case. It was enough to pause the trial. It may just be a rumor, but it's certainly interesting.

And not just viewers. Sponsors. Even players will boycott. It'll be an embarrassment if they have to play the Super Bowl with white replacement players from the UFL and trailer parks.

They want this to happen. Trump and Miller want to go back to the 50's when all sports leagues were segregated. That won't be a good spectacle for the NFL nor for NBC.

And if the players association gets involved and has Black players aka most of both teams boycott? It would be a total disaster.
