Earlier this year, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell apologized on behalf of his league for not listening to players protesting since 2016. With the season opener just 18 days away, Goodell on Sunday doubled down on his support for social justice activism in his league, praised former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and said he hopes Americans are ready to accept a new season of heightened…

In an "historic move," would-be "National Director of Voting" LeBron James has landed another professional sports venue as a voting site for November's Election Day. It's Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, which will become the first Major League Baseball ballpark ever to do this. 

On Wednesday’s New Day, CNN co-host John Berman brought on sports analyst Christine Brennan to fear monger about coronavirus. Acting more like a Democratic operative than a sports analyst, Brennan blamed Republicans for several leagues canceling their college football seasons and spread blatant misinformation about coronavirus by claiming “young men or young women” will “die on the…

On Tuesday afternoon’s CNN Newsroom, host John King decided with Washington Post White House Reporter Toluse Olorunnipa that naming a black person and criticizing a sports league is racist. The woke hacks insanely declared that President Trump was using racist “dog whistles” by “naming a black man” when Trump stated that Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) would be in charge of Joe…

An episode of ABC’s racial comedy black-ish that even the liberal network deemed too controversial to air was finally made available for viewing on the streaming site Hulu on Monday. From painting Trump as a “scary,” “Shady King” that “everybody” is afraid of, to praising Al Gore for caring about climate change and winning the popular vote (while pointing out that Trump lost it), the…

A former NFL player and current Republican candidate for Congress in Utah drew positive press from Newsweek magazine Saturday for opposing national anthem protests and for defending an NBA player who refused to kneel. Newsweek's Benjamin Fearnow gave Burgess Owens fair treatment for his remarks on Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac's courageous stand, just days after an…

Kudos to the Idaho conservatives who stood up to LGBT and NCAA bullies and said "no" to transgender males playing on women's sports teams. Earlier this year the state passed a law banning males from muscling in on women's teams, the ACLU filed suit and the NCAA was pressured to withdraw 2021 postseason events from the state. Well the NCAA just flinched, deciding to re-examine its policy…

In November 2015, three years after taking the San Francisco 49ers to the Super Bowl, quarterback Colin Kaepernick was benched in favor of Blaine Gabbert, a career journeyman most recently unsuccessful with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The following preseason, Kaepernick began donning garb designed to mock police officers, including socks with cops dressed as pigs.

There is very little new under the sun. The monument and statue destruction that we are witnessing has been witnessed in other times and other places. A tyrant's first battlefield is to rewrite history. Most notable were the political purges of Joseph Stalin. The Soviet government erased figures from Soviet history by renaming cities —  such as the Imperial capital of St. Petersburg to…

Washington Post sports columnist Jerry Brewer has some bad news for normal sports fans. “Sports escapism has been suspended,” he wrote on Aug. 6. “There is a chance the ol’ reliable expectation of games as breezy diversions may never return.”

Hours after ESPN decided to stand up to China on Wednesday by publishing a devastation piece on player abuse at the NBA’s Chinese academies, CNN and Situation Room host Wolf Blitzer brought on NBA commissioner Adam Silver for a 16-minute segment that not only ignored the league’s love affair with the communist, concentration camp-running country, but Silver’s support for Joe Biden.…

There are few profiles in courage these days. Americans are enervated, bullied by politicized medicos, ruthless cancel culture and violent America haters who’ve been eagerly abetted by media that have all but dropped the pretense of objectivity. Already hollowed out by creeping progressivism and terrified of social media infamy, our institutions’ default response is groveling before the mob.…

While professional sports leagues have taken it upon themselves to shove a giant middle finger in the faces of American sports fans, one NFL legend is standing up for freedom and the American flag on the pitch.
