The NFL is a paradox. It appears its popularity is at an all-time high, but that popularity is on shakier ground than it seems, and the “shield,” as the League’s logo is called, continues to tarnish.

There is no argument that the league has gone woke. Since 2020, the NFL has been stenciling either "End Racism" or "It Takes All of Us" in end zones for all games. In addition, players have sayings such as "Choose Love" or "Inspire Change" on the back of their helmets.

Of course, this is after we, as fans, had to put up with players kneeling during the National Anthem, networks choosing not to even show the anthem before games, and the NFL allowing the so-called “black National Anthem,” “Lift Every Voice and Sing” to be played, basically mocking the REAL NATIONAL ANTHEM, just so no crybaby snowflakes had their feelings........
