It’s called VIRTUE SIGNALING.


Believe it or not, “the right” does it, too.




Saying the Pledge, or offering a prayer before any sort of meeting falls along the same lines. Puzzling, for sure.

If it’s simply a renamed arena, which will happen anyways eventually in the form of sponsorship, I could deal begrudgingly & be very pissed off in private.

If the demands are a complete disassociation and removal of all things Rupp & our storied history...

—> It’s GFY & public scorched earth over here.

To my knowledge, black players/families haven’t had much of an issue with Rupp Arena & all UK has provided them the last 45 years. [eyeroll]

This isn’t going to be pretty, either way.

The name was "changed" in March. If this was so important why wasn't it brought up 4 months ago when it was actually going through the change?

- Time to just end the NA at sporting events. Everyone can go back to getting beers or getting piss breaks in early. Then, we can watch sports as intended.

- My house image on google maps has me bent over spray-painting a weight bench on my driveway. Lawn looks great!

- PGA Tour having a fun go at things. New office is almost complete. Beautiful open space, no barriers between cubicles and all of it is now being completely redone from covid. Staff has to get their **** out of existing office and they're now all WFH until December.

- I wear out excuses with customers using covid-related reasons. Your stuff is late - covid. My crew didn't show up - covid. We need you onsite in the morning - sorry man, covid.

- Got followed to the gas station the other day. Pulled up to the pump and an almost identical red 300ZX pulls up next to me. Buddy just moved here from Vegas and has a pristine, 1994 original TT that has been in his garage for 20 years. Pretty cool to see one in person completely unmodified and when I say pristine - it literally looks like he just drove it off the lot.

- Watched a few minutes of the Yankees the other night and they were talking about using MLB The Show piped in fan noise. There you go - already done for you. Thought that was brilliant.

- If everyone puts their opinion on a little sticky note, tapes it to their shirt then maybe we can move past worrying about what everyone else is doing/thinking and live a life. One day, I hope.

Tough break BTodd. I can't imagine the frustration you've endured seeing BET on your channel guide. With any luck, you'll be able to find something with white people in it on the other 697 TV stations.

Votto's Canadian. Several of Facebook's finest patriots are calling for him to be sent home to Toronto for his outrageous slap in the face of American soldiers who have died.

Seriously.

I'm more offended by the player who didn't remove his hat.
That's Sal Romano, a pitcher and personal favorite. Seems like a great guy.

The difference for me is the NBA players and coaches don’t miss an opportunity to explain how woke they are.

I don’t give a **** about Votto kneeling, because he isn’t an attention ***** and he doesn’t suck.......yea Kapernick sucked and led up to kneeling with wearing pig socks and other BS.

So it isn’t about the BLM support so much as it is allowing your league to be a continuous reminder of the **** show our country is going through.

You want patches on jerseys and labels on the court? Cool, now shut the F up and entertain me.........that’s it, and it isn’t that much to ask for.

And straighten out the leaders of BLM too, please, Charles Wade is hardly a saint!


- OldFo Barrel Strength is a damn good pour!

- The local group that does Down Home barrel picks chose a different barrel finish than I’m using on the retail product.......phenomenal finish that is starting to shape up to be!

Counterpoint: Kap took a team to the Super Bowl. Where the eff has that goofy Canadian Votto taken the Reds?

Yep, I believe he made it without any super serious continuing issues. I was told 2nd hand that the doctors told him he had a “widow maker” and that he only had an 8% chance of survival even with people taking action immediately.

Pretty awesome he made it.

I like the anthem and in this day and age appreciate a little shred of collective national pride.

I get it, some will ignore it and some will protest, whatever.

This country will always have issues and you probably are going to dislike the President more often than you like him/her. But having a little national pride and respect is a positive thing and there is rarely a platform for it, unless you are (as PTI would say) social media virtue signaling.
