Looking at it with hindsight 20/20, sports fans should have clamped down on the politicization of professional sports years ago. Instead, we just shook our heads every time some pampered millionaire mouthed off about (always liberal) politics and told them to shut up and dribble. How’d that work out?
Nowadays we have every major professional sport taking a knee for Black Lives Matter and spitting on American values as they pocket Chinese cash. LeBron James made headlines this week for threatening a police officer who had just saved a teenage girl’s life. That cop had to take another person’s life to save that girl, but those are the breaks when you start attacking people in the streets with a butcher knife.
LeBron James doxed the cop and posted his picture on social media. What a creep. And almost no one is pushing back at this garbage.
We should have started boycotting sports years ago, but unfortunately, sports fans made the mistake of thinking it wasn’t such a big deal. It was a big deal. It mattered every time those pro athletes mouthed off – because some people were obviously listening to them. Big tactical mistake on our part!
