NFL makes a weird play before Trump attends the Super Bowl.
The NFL is scrapping its efforts to “End Racism” before Sunday’s Super Bowl and Donald Trump’s plan to make history by being the first sitting president to attend. This will be the first Super Bowl in which those words have not been painted on an end...

You're viewing a single thread.
Not going to happen but one or both sides refusing to play would be a massive “Fuck you!” To Trump and let the NFL know who they should be beholden to. Wouldn’t even take every player, just most of a side.
You're right, that isn't going to happen 😉
Also, keep in mind that every position has at least one backup
Yeah, but people tune into the game to watch the best players in the game that season. Backups playing against backups would be horrible (though prob funny to watch).
However, they'd kind of be scabs in that case, and fuck scabs.
Most of these players are probably of the "I got mine" mindset. They're not going to blow that up for ethics
Can you imagine having to explain that, though?
Nothing would stop someone who made it to the Superbowl to not play. Especially since many (most?) of them probably support him. I know the Chiefs kicker Butker does. They're rich as hell you know.
