Coastal Carolina Football announced via Twitter that they’re rolling out patches that will read “Justice” by the shoulder. We’ve tried explaining the declining ratings, but they decided to roll with the social justice patches anyway.

Maybe Vegas can roll out some wagers on when these athletic directors will register that justice happens off the field, not because of a patch worn on by a Sun Belt football team.
We’ve tried explaining that the opposite of racism isn’t anti-racism, it’s assimilation. Webster defines assimilation as “The process of taking in and fully understanding information or ideas.” No one’s trying to take in information for unique opinions on “justice”, we’re simply lecturing without dialogue.
The justice that is being pushed on these patches isn’t educating their audience, it’s simply turning an enjoyable event somber.
No doubt that criminal justice system can use some tweaking, but we should still acknowledge America as the greatest human experiment in history. College jerseys are full of patches for their conference, or social justice gestures, but where are the American flags? Sad that the folks rushing these logos into production are the same people that fail to celebrate being here.
“The justice that is being pushed on these patches isn’t educating their audience, it’s simply turning an enjoyable event somber. “
Boom! Nailed it, Gary. I think you’ve managed to describe how just about every sports fan feels.
Ditto Bluto! On point Gary.
Right on Gary well said!
Yes, give America “justice”. Justice would be a bench-sitting 4th string NFL running back not making more money in one season than a coal miner or a nurse will make in an entire 40 year career. Coal miners and nurses who are NOT allowed to stich political slogans onto THEIR uniforms.
Social justice lecturing by entitled athletes has opened our eyes to just how worthless their jobs are in the grand scheme of things.
This is memory of Cannon Hinnant. That is how I see it.
Sad that they think that by calling us racist for being white will change things. I have never used the n word in my life. Im 57 and was raised by parents who would whip my ass if I ever used that word.
Now, they need to add “legal” to the patch, and you have a real cause to support. Social justice has turned into a euphemism for mob rule.
Get woke, go broke.
