As far as I am concerned, they are dead to me.

So, are you tired of the activism in pro sports? Have you stopped watching?

You have to admit... golf continues to "fly underneath the radar." I haven't seen anyone on the pro circuit wear a "BLM" shirt. In fact, none of the pro golf players are jumping into this controversy.

I love this. They are just playing the sport they love and we just get to watch it. Sigh...

They are for me. When the inmates run the prison you have anarchy. The manager and owners don't have the guts to tell their workers what to do. I am not against protest when needed, but there are other ways.

I have not watched an NFL game for 3 years, I have now added the NBA and MLB. So sad.

Golfers have to perform to earn their money and the other's don't!!!

It is a shame that we make heroes out of many of these players, when in fact many of them are just spoiled rich kids who have been pampered since their youth. Many, but not all, are uneducated brats who went to college on a full ride not because of their intellect but because the could throw or catch a ball. Think about how sad that is when some bright young mind cannot got to school because he cannot afford to go and has no athletic ability. Why would I listen to these players? Same for many of these idiots in Hollywood. This is the advice I would give to all of them. Shut up and play ball and shut and just act because no one and I mean no one, really cares about what you think.

Please God hear my prayer. Would that all patrons would stop watching, attending or purchasing anything related to professional sports. Then it will gladly die. We can only hope and pray. 😁

The sad thing is that these pampered idiots think people do care what they think.

Agreed and this is why you won't see wide spread "protesting" on the PGA. It would be the same in the other leagues if their salary relied on their play.

As to the original question. I don't think the NBA will hurt much at all. We're not exactly in their target market. The NFL has proven it has too much of a pull for enough people to turn their TV sets off. I think MLB and the NHL are taking huge risks and I'd be very surprised if this doesn't hit them deeply in the pocket book.

I'm just surprised they are willing to hitch their wagon to Jacob Blake. I don't understand how you can look at the facts of that and see that this was somehow racially motivated and that in any way he was not the person 100% in the wrong.

I was a basketball fanatic. I haven't watched a game since the players and owners politicized the game. Hope they all go broke and the the players get their pays cut to nothing.

I'm done with all pro sports. I'm a big golf fan but even now, they're starting to give into the pressure. Cameron Chump is the first. Keep it up and I'll quit watching or going to tournaments.

Why do they have to be knuckleheads as you called them.

[SenselessPage]

I believe they should stick to what they are doing. Play Ball, and leave politics for another time.
