I didn't know y'all had two different nations down there? Seems odd...
Do you think sports have been gone so long that people will watch no matter what? Or will people finally act on what they say and stop watching?

"Source: NFL plans to play Black national anthem before Week 1 games
4:10 PM ET

"Lift Ev'ry Voice And Sing," traditionally known as the Black national anthem, is expected to be performed live or played before every Week 1 NFL game, and the league is considering a variety of other measures during the upcoming season to recognize victims of police brutality, a source familiar with the league's discussions told The Undefeated on Thursday.

The song would be performed before "The Star-Spangled Banner," the sources said. The NFL's season opener is scheduled for Sept. 10, with the Kansas City Chiefs hosting the Houston Texans.

Having recently displayed increased awareness about the problems of systemic racism, the NFL, in collaboration with the NFL Players Association, is also considering listing the names of victims on uniforms through decals on helmets or patches on jerseys. The NFL also may produce educational programs about victims, among other plans.

Early last month, commissioner Roger Goodell in a video admitted that the league had erred in how it handled peaceful NFL player protests of police brutality and systemic oppression. Goodell condemned racism and affirmed that Black lives matter, pledging his allegiance to the players in the battle for equal justice under the law.

Also in June, the league revealed plans to increase its social justice footprint by pledging to donate $250 million over a 10-year period.

The league hopes its efforts demonstrate "a genuine commitment to the public, players and coaches and that player voices continue to be heard," the source wrote in a text message. "This is key to educating fans, and becoming a prominent voice in the fight to end racism.""

Well they wont have to play it very loud cause there won't be anybody in the stands. And I hear they're not going to allow whites to play in the NFL anymore.


Life ain't supposed to be easy.

"Lift ev'ry voice and sing
'Til earth and heaven ring
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the list'ning skies
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on 'til victory is won
Stony the road we trod
Bitter the chastening rod
Felt in the days when hope unborn had died
Yet with a steady beat
Have not our weary feet
Come to the place for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered
We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered
Out from the gloomy past
'Til now we stand at last
Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast
God of our weary years
God of our silent tears
Thou who has brought us thus far on the way
Thou who has by Thy might
Led us into the light
Keep us forever in the path, we pray
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee
Lest, our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee
Shadowed beneath Thy hand
May we forever stand
True to our God
True to our native land"

The native land is Africa. Why should there be a divisive song to Africa sang at American Football games.

It's looking less and less like we can live together. No more than a handful of black people have spoke out against all the destruction and hurt being done by black people. Unless more black people step up to police their own, soon there will be no living black people in America.

Keith

They should probably hang onto that 250 mil. They might need it to pay those overpaid players when the fans dont show up...

Everybody talks big about being butt hurt by the NFL Kneelers,and yell out they'll never watch another game, but then a few posts later everyone is talking about "the game last night" lol
Unreal.

Quit watching NFL years ago, don't watch any "professional sports" and at this point don't care if I ever do again.

Hope they all go under
