NAACP calls for boycott of southern schools
- Thread starter 18IsTheMan

Some will say, do anything to stay relevant....I don't see their request amounting to much.
Not likely. Does the NAACP even do anything except call for boycotts every now and again? I'm really not sure what their function is, but I'm sure they rake in a lot of money.
Seems at least once a decade they target university athletics.
ESPN was practically jubilant when reporting it, which is odd considering southern college sports is their bread and butter.
I'm sure kids who have worked all their lives since first picking up a ball for a D1 scholarship offer and now NIL $$$'s followed by a Pro draft pick are going to support the boycott.

Their boycott of SC over the flag resulted in record tourism for the state.
Depends on what the local chapters focus on. The boycotts are just what the media tend to talk about. I was a President of a local chapter in my younger days. We gave scholarships to graduating seniors. Provided school supplies to kids going back to school, and yes white parents brought their kids out to get the supplies. Arranged community meetings with law enforcement. Positive things tend to be boring. Things that sow division get ratings for news outlets.
Got to keep the race baiting alive to generate the money.
It's sad but I believe ESPN has long ago ceased being focused on sports (as a company). They have, in my eyes, focused on "politically correct" thinking for years.
Sure hasn't been boycotted any during the "bike week" that happens in Horry county ever Memorial Day weekend.
Just a touch ironic that the NAACP is a racist organization.
Be my guest. May bring back the true student athlete. You know those kids that were proud to be offered a free education, room, board, etc to play a sport.
Should be the definition of irony in the dictionary.
How does that work? Where does the money come from? It's cool that you make stuff up in your mind to keep a negative narrative going.
Hakeem Jeffries is a joke. He calls Supreme Court "illegitimate" when they rule that you cannot consider race in drawing up the congressional maps in each state which is the definition of racist. He and Chuck Schumer look into the camera and straight out lie all of the time. Lord help us if the Dems get the majority in the House and/or Senate in the fall. He and the Dems accuse Trump of dividing people while that is exactly what they do. Trump considers everyone equal as long as you aren`t in the country illegally, while the Dems want preferential treatment for people in the U.S. illegally - they flooded the country with illegals - no vetting or anything. Who lost jobs, benefits, health care and had taxes increased to support all of that? The average American that`s who. Democrats are prioritizing illegal immigrants over blacks & whites and the NAACP and the Democrats don`t say a damn thing against that. Also, I`ll bet you everything I own that the average number of scholarships given out to minorities is considerably higher in the SEC schools than the number on teams from the North and the West, where the blue states are. They are so full of crap. Oh and what a great idea to mix politics and sports. Guess they are getting desperate because they have no policies other than being anti-Trump but this is ridiculous.
Nah; enough of the pretending this stuff doesn't exist.
Explain the neccessity and/or legitimacy of the naacp wanting to boycott southern schools.
Their sheep do not know the truth or they are OK with it if they benefit from it.
Most of the states had 25-48% Republican support in the last election and yet no Republican districts.
As of the 119th Congress, there are 7 states that are represented only by Democrats, meaning they have no Republican congressional districts.

Nailed it.And showing up right on que.
What's that saying about a hit dog hollering? Lol
I never said that I agreed with the move. However, I get the logic. You have all these athletes in your schools that are not really qualified academically, but it's the regular black students that get attacked with all this DEI non-sense. Now, I think they are off on just blaming this on southern states. If you are going to do a boycott like this, do it with all the P4 schools. Further, there was a comment earlier in the therad by "Prestonyte" that I agree with. There is too much money involved now in college sports for this to work. You can't expect kids to pass on 6 and 7 figure deals over a principle. I believe in principle, but everyone has a price. It's a boycott that will be in the news cycle this week and forgotten.
....and right on que you have no solutions. Just making things up and name calling. Also, I didn't try to hide. I said straight up that I was affiliated with the NAACP at one time. Denying race issues exist and hoping they will just go away like magic is not a solution.And showing up right on que.

Nope. However, there is nothing wrong with Atlanta IMO. I certainly would prefer living there over Rhode Island.
Was I asked for solutions? I commented about race baiting, and how you came running like you heard the dinner bell. And I was right.
If you want one solution, stop trying to keep racism alive by race baiting continually. But this is a big money industry and we both know certain interested parties will never let it die. Plus, people like you just have too much fun playing victim. Color me SO SURPRISED that you claim to have worked for NAACP.
You don't have to be asked. You don't have solutions on anything. You still think having a donor like Mark Cuban will turn our football program around. Yet, that influx of cash you think Cuban is giving Indiana gets them the next 3* recruit.
So I wasnt asked, but then you cried about how I didn't offer something I wasnt asked for.
You truly are a retard.
And for further proof, you follow up by saying having a billionaire donor to buy players wont help our football team. Its like youre struggling with ways to prove youre a retard.
Interesting how you "dont have time" right after you quote me to start something, followed by saying something monumentally stupid. How convenient, and so out of the ordinary.
Maybe it'd be better to "not have time" before making an idiot out of yourself. Save us all some time.
