Dolphins diss NFL BLM tribute, calling it another “paid to salute” PR stunt
September 11, 2020   

 

The Miami Dolphins will not kneel or stand for any pregame ballads before Sunday’s season opener against the New England Patriots.

Instead, the Dolphins decided to remain united while protesting social injustice and racial inequality in the current political climate by staying in their locker room as the national anthem and “Lift Every Voice And Sing” play before kickoff.

The Dolphins — who are owned by Steve Ross, the renowned New York businessman who has contributed to President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign — announced their intentions in a powerful, 2-minute, 17-second video recitation of a poem on Thursday night that challenges the NFL’s response and hypocrisy on social matters.

I think it is the door closing on the NFL.

Idiots screaming at other idiots.

Idiots screaming at other idiots.

Or more evidence of the professional sports world imploding in unison.

And I for one, am applauding that destruction.
