These pathetic, Woke sports leagues just can't help themselves.  I hope it really affects their bottom line.  Losers all!

The National Collegiate Athletic Association has announced that it will allow players to place social justice slogans on jerseys, becoming the next sports body to bend to the will of Black Lives Matter activism.

The college sports governing body said on Thursday that it had authorized players to wear a “commemorative patch” on jerseys for the coming 2020 and 2021 seasons.

“The patch on the front, which most sports already allowed, as authorized by the school or conference, may be a commemorative/memorial patch (names, mascots, nicknames, logos, and marks) intended to celebrate or memorialize people, events or other causes,” the NCAA said in a statement.

Players will also be permitted to place slogans on their jersey’s backs where their names usually appear.

“The second location is on the back of the uniform where the player name is traditionally located and, as authorized by the school or conference, will allow names/words intended to celebrate or memorialize people, events, or other causes. The names or words may vary by team member,” the NCAA statement explained.

I've always been a big football fan, both college and pro, and a bigger NCAA basketball fan. No more. Done.

About the only sports I have watched in years is the annual GA-GA Tech football game around Thanksgiving.

But for some reason, someone figured out that non-conference games will spread COVID more than non-conference games, so they are limiting most teams to 1 non-conference game this season.  That means Ga Tech won't be playing UGA this year.  I would have never ever said this before, but I'm happy about that.  Now I can drop the last time sucking game from my to-do list.
