The Only Black Lives Matter Football League (OBLMFL)
by Thomas DiLorenzo
Formerly the “NFL.” I watched the first few minutes of the first pro football game of the year last night between the Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans just to see how much of a “We Hate America — and Especially White Americans” spectacle it would be. It greatly exceeded my expectations.
The end zone, sidelines, and some of the players’ helmets had “End Racism” logos. Translation: We hate white people, because only white people can be racists according to OBLM. There were other silly political slogans on the helmets as well.
It started out with something very few Americans have ever heard of: the “Black National Anthem.” This was the OBLMFL’s way of saying, “Black peope are not a part of America, and don’t want to be part of America.” They want to be citizens of “Black America” ruled by the self-described “trained Marxists” who founded Only Black Lives Matter. I suppose “Blackistan” would be a good name for such a place.
Two young black women sang (from a remote location) an excruciatingly long and boring rendition of the real national anthem after that. One wore a t-shirt with a huge picture of the man who poisoned himself to death with extreme overdoses of fentanyl and meth, after which the media blamed his death on the police — George Floyd. The purpose of this was to announce for the ten millionth time the OBLMFL’s official position that American police officers are all racists who hunt down black people to murder.
The other young girl wore a t-shirt with the poor black woman who was killed by police during a “no knock” raid, meant to send the same message about American police officers. Scores more white people are killed by police in no knock raids by police, but that of course is not a fact that anyone needs to know. Senator Rand Paul has introduced legislation to put an end to such “raids,” for which he was attacked recently by an Only Black Lives Matter mob in D.C.
The Houston Texans boycotted both anthems by staying in the locker room, sending the message that the official position of the team is “We Hate America and Americans, and F**K You if You Don’t Like It.” It was not an anti-government or anti-flag protest but the above PC declaration. When they finally hobbled onto the field it sounded like every single member of the 17,000 person crowd was booing them. No one who witnessed this thought that the booing was just because they were the opposing team.
All the players from both teams held hands and linked arms before the kickoff just in case any TV viewers happened to have gone to the fridge for a beer during the previous We Hate America — and Especially White Americans spectacles.
At that point I had to go downstairs for a podcast interview about my new book,
The Problem With Lincoln. After that the game was still on the TV upstairs and Kansas City had just scored a touchdown. Before going to a commercial they displayed two black dudes dirty dancing, Soul Train style, in the end zone. Who knew there were so many gay guys in pro football?
In summary, what I witnessed was essentially a Biden campaign rally paid for by the owners of the pro football teams. There are reports today that the television viewing ratings for the game were the lowest in ten years.
