Want to know something really scary? I don’t give a damn
about women. I don’t give a damn about kids. And I don’t give a damn about men. And neither do you. None of us give two shits about any of these things because if
we did, none of us would ever watch another NFL game. We are all mindless sheep
akin to the thousands of Romans that would pour into the Colosseum back in the
early years of the ADs to watch men slaughter one another for their amusement. Just like those
simple-minded boobs, we have a bloodlust that MUST BE FILLED! And it must be filled at ANY AND ALL COST!
I don’t need a scientific report to tell me that men,
weighing as much as 350 pounds, running at 4.3-4.5 40 yard-dash speeds,
crashing into one another is REALLY FUCKING DANGEROUS! And if it (football) didn’t exist already and someone thought of this shit today, we’d ask them if they lost their damn mind. “So let me get this straight? You want giant ass freaks of men to ram head first into one another
over and over for 3 hours? And all for the sake of entertainment you say? Are you fucking crazy? That's a horrible idea! A, no one would do it and B, no one would watch it!” It’s no surprise that these men
playing a violent sport are committing violent acts off the field. There isn’t
a doctor alive that wouldn’t say repeated head trauma doesn’t have a drastic
effect on a person’s behavior. Roger Goodell knows this. The NFL knows this. The players know this. You know this. I know this. But no one gives a shit. They’re going to keep playing and we’re going to
keep watching.
You’d think the NFL would have started taking domestic violence serious after one of the countless arrest for domestic
violence since Goodell's taken over as commissioner. Or maybe after last season when a player shot the mother of his child seven times then killed himself in front of the coach and GM of his team. Or maybe after they saw a player dragging his unconscious fiancee out of an
elevator like a sack of potatoes. But oh no! Those things weren’t enough. It wasn’t
until TMZ showed us what we had all ALREADY KNEW happened, did you, or the NFL, start to
act like they give a damn about domestic violence.
Folks, reading about domestic violence is one thing. A picture is one thing too, but SEEING it happen is a WHOLE other can of worms. I'll explain. According to some music critics and historians, Ike Turner invented rock-n-roll as we know it, but no one remembers him for that. Did you know the book that the 1993 bio-pic What’s Love Got To Do With It
was based on the 1986 book I, Tina? As in, what Ike had done to Tina
was known for at least seven years prior to the release of the film. Before 1993, Ike Turner still enjoyed a relatively lucrative career in music via touring and booking shows, but that all stopped once the movie hit (Pardon the Pun) theaters.
After June 9th, 1993, Ike Turner was about as untouchable as a Big Mac from Chernobyl.
Overnight he was instantly vilified and became the international poster boy
for woman abusers. I mean, his name pretty much became a verb to describe hitting a woman.
For years, Turner claimed that the abuse was vastly overplayed in the film, but
the damage was done. We didn’t even see Ike hit Tina for real. We saw Laurence Fishburne pretend to hit Angela Bassett but just the visual portrayal of
domestic violence was enough to cook Ike Turner. (Somewhere Chris Brown is thanking God his run in with Rihanna wasn’t caught on tape.)
The point is Ike Turner hit women. We knew that and we didn't need a movie to figure it out. Just like we
knew James Brown, Sam Cooke, Jimi Hendrix, and countless other soul singers, hit
women. In both Jimi Hendrix and James Brown’s bio-pic from this year,
domestic abuse is only shown once, because they know the damage it can cause. For whatever reason, SEEING it somehow makes it "real" I guess?
How bad is domestic violence though? This is the first time I
can remember the "big bad NFL" bending to the will of public opinion. But only so
much did it bend. I’m not an idiot and I don’t think for one second that the NFL didn’t
see that video before TMZ released it. Because by all accounts, my Black ass could’ve called that casino and could
have gotten a copy of the elevator tape. I’m not here to say Rice or Peterson
or anyone else with domestic violence charges shouldn’t ever play again. This is a country of second chances, but for the league to act like they care and for YOU
to act like you care is just silly to me. (When Anheuser-Busch came out with a statement
saying they were “disappointed” in the leagues handling of domestic violence I literally laughed. Anheuser-Busch and its “product” has had a hand in more ass-whoopings
than Everlast boxing gloves! A beer company getting “upset” over domestic
violence is like Smith and Wesson getting "upset" over war.)
They (The NFL) don’t really care because YOU don’t really care. And no, Roger
Goodell isn’t quitting his job. He is a dumb-ass that couldn't get a job to pay him $44K a year, much less one paying him $44M a year. You don’t quit a job like that! You
retire or you get fired. FUCK PUBLIC PRESSURE when the public doesn’t really give a shit.
That’s why he gave half-ass answers and empty statements during last week’s
presser. That’s why he’s laying low. Because he knows all he has to do is
ride the wave and wait for the calm.
Goodell could've given a press conference where he said,
“Fuck Native Americans!
Go Redskins! Fuck Black people too, because the New York Giants are now the
New York Niggers! Fuck player safety! We’re adding Wednesday night games to go
with the already dangerous and sloppily played Thursday night games you never asked for. Get
money! And one more thing, yeah I saw the Rice elevator video and I laugh every time I see it! What are you going to do about it? See all you suckers on
Sunday and make sure you buy a pink Ray Rice jersey to support titty cancer or the
support of the stop of titty cancer or whatever that shit supports! Fuck you! Go NFL! Roger out bitches!”
He could have then dropped the mic, pulled down his pants, pissed on the reporters and we all would STILL watch the NFL. Hell I know Black fans of
the Giants that would proudly buy and WEAR, New York Nigger team gear! Funny
thing is, if we could just all stop watching for one Sunday, just ONE, the
message those empty seats, and empty ratings, would send could change everything. But we can’t. We need our medicine.
This is the YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, binge-watch five seasons of a show in one weekend, “I need it now” age. We’ll
forget about this. Just like we forgot Russia shot down a fucking commercial plane. Just like we forgot
cops killed two unarmed Black men this summer. The NFL can do whatever it
wants. Say whatever it wants. And we’ll still watch. That’s why Goodell isn’t
going anywhere. Because he knows you, me, we, US, aren’t going anywhere. So why the hell would he?
