I delayed posting on this subject until the storm and rage from my Marine and Navy friends on the internet and in phone calls died down. Actually, they haven’t stopped, but at least it’s only a dribble now. I’ll not belabor the point because my stand on the subject closely resembles what my friends are saying, and perhaps you will agree as well. So, I’ll be brief and wait to see your thoughts.
This was number 60, and I remember number one and every one after that, especially when my favorite team of the time, the Baltimore Colts, played in numbers 3 and 5. This game is highlighted as the greatest sporting event of the year in America. And for that POS Goodell to have booked a halftime show featuring some singer I don’t know who sang in a foreign language is the most egregious thing I have ever experienced in my lifetime.
I spent nearly 36 years of my adult life serving this once-wonderful country, giving much of my blood, sweat, and tears, and to see such a slap in the face of true Americans was totally unacceptable to me. I did watch a minute or two to see what all the huppla was about. Once I saw it, I changed to the alternate half-time show with Kid Rock, as did millions of Americans.
So, here is my stand. My TVs will never be tuned to any NFL game until the team owners speak out as true Americans and shit can that POS Goodell. I’ll watch NCAA football. In fact, I’ll watch girls’ flag football before I allow that SOB Goodell to embarrass my country again.

Saul Alinsky isn’t the one setting the rules for the radicals controlling the streets of some of America’s largest cities. It’s Don Vito Corleone.
Alinski, the late revolutionary whose “Rules for Radicals” inspired a generation of activists, some of who’ve reached the pinnacle of power, advocated a step-by-step erosion of America’s values and institutions.
Corleone, Hollywood’s most famous mob boss, was less patient, sticking the bloody consequences of defying him right in the face of his targets.
The Godfather’s methods are preferred by today’s social justice mobs.
Witness the demands leveled by Black Lives Matter in Louisville, where ongoing and often violent demonstrations have effectively rendered unusable the city’s hip East Market District, or NuLu as it’s popularly known.
In a letter to the NuLu business community, the activists offered peace in exchange for a long list of demands to give African Americans a greater cut of the action in Louisville’s surging downtown.
The list calls for representation of African Americans equal to their piece of the city’s population — 23% — in district jobs, management positions, business ownership, nonprofit boards, etc.
On paper, it’s a worthy goal. I was among those who early on called out the scarcity of Black participation in Detroit’s downtown comeback.
But as hard quotas, with harsh repercussions for not meeting them, they are nothing more than a shakedown. If the 23% target is missed, businesses will be required to make a donation equal to 1.5% of net sales to local Black organizations.
The other demands are straight out of Soviet and Chinese re indoctrination camps.
Business owners must swear the equivalent of a loyalty oath by posting in a prominent place their support of reparations for slavery. They and their staffs must submit to biannual diversity, equity and inclusion training conducted by pre-approved Black female trainers. They then must participate in quarterly community “round tables” where their progress toward compliance will be judged.
The shakedown payment is just the start of the Mob-style coercion.
Businesses that fail to agree to the terms face the outright threat of ruin. BLM promises a campaign of intense intimidation.
The actions threatened include blasts of the non-compliance on “all social media platforms” and via mail. Public boycotts organized online of “your NuLu establishment AND any other business ventures owned by you.”
Also, “Visible, media-covered demonstration/sit-in outside your establishment.”
And something called “Invasive Reclamation,” which means staffing booths and tables outside a business where competing Black businesses can offer their wares.
The threats seem to meet the legal definition of extortion: “The gaining of property or money by almost any kind of force or threat of violence, property damage, harm to reputation, or unfavorable government action.”
That charge has landed a lot of mob figures in the slammer. But the BLM mobsters fear no such reprisals.
They know they’re free to adopt the tactics of the Godfather because so many American cities are being run by prototypes of his bumbling boy Fredo.
Says Kimmel, “Our president is a Hydroxy-moron… It’s hard to process but I guess are we surprised that the guy who thought windmills cause cancer thinks a lupus drug kills coronavirus?”
What a POS. Who watches this fool? I sure as heck do not, but I guess everyone else does. Anyway, here’s a great clip of someone (Marc Little) who took exception to a clip from the POS that included him, and he took Kimmel on. Enjoy!
at least to the liberals they do. Wanted to share with you what I was doing in Montana for two weeks.
Of course I jest, but I thought it was time for some humor with all the stuff going on in our once great nation.
And yes I believe Black Lies do matter to those who are ignorant of the organization itself and where all that money goes to from donations. Stupid is what stupid is. Have a great day; I will!
This is the voice of the National Democratic party??? I’m sure he did not make this one on his own. It had to have had the scum Pelosi’s and Schummer’s input. And folks, this says it all. Very telling. Be sure to spread it around and by all means send to your liberal friends, that is if you have any — I do not! It seems obvious to me who this commercial is directed towards, but you decide. Needs to go viral!
