The announcement comes the same day a White House official told NBC News that President Donald Trump would be attending the game.
My consolation is that these motherfuckers are not ready for how hard the pendulum will swing back.
It will be a proper wrecking ball.
I agree, what’s that timeline look like for you though? 4 years? 8 years? The “wait” is gonna fuckin’ suck.
Crossing my fingers for the first trans president, though.
Imagine that you managed to scrounge up the several thousand dollars needed to attend the super bowl. You and your fat wife pile into your lifted f250 and manage to park, get your BudLight™® and squeeze into your double wide seats. But, hark, you spy as Mahomes throws another uncontested touchdown: the NFL’s anti racist messaging has been removed from the end zone! How will you be able to dissuade your own white guilt as the black receiver shucks and jives in the end zone after making the catch for over one million dollars a year. A tear runs down your cheek, knowing that you should never have voted for Trump…
Can’t be offending the Racist of the United States of America.
Bend the knee, kiss the ring. These giant, greedy corporations are fucking pathetic…
Also , the spineless viewers , musical artists, players, and advertisers that enable the whole event
Bend the knee
are you sure?
Bend both knees or neither
I was going to go out and do some racist shit today, but I saw that the NFL wanted to end it, so now I’m seriously reconsidering said racist shit.
I like a society that openly makes racists uncomfortable for their beliefs. It lets them know they’re unwelcome, even if it doesn’t change their mind.
Silence is agreement, afterall.
Alternate story: Racist was going to go out and harass somebody today, instead he saw “end racism” on the TV and had an aneurysm
Oh, America.
Just stick an S in front, will give the same message and will be much cheaper!
Or a T
I think people are reading too much into this. They’re changing it to ‘Choose Love,’ as an obvious shot at the orange-haired man who’s never gotten a hug.
I just love Today combining the two events (changing it; 1st prez to go) to make it obvious why.
Well, the NFL did it. They ended racism.
Didn’t they just end “ending racism”?
I, for one, have found racism considerably less appealing since reading this sideways in endzones. Thanks NFL for making me not a bigot anymore. I think blacks are probably fine now.
Of course this was not about to end racism, but building safe space to not trigger the racists is encouraging them.
It was about product placement
Legit question. What happens if every single black player just REFUSES to play at the superbowl?
Like, lets say you get opening kickoff, and it’s a white guy kicker. So he kicks the ball. It lands at about the 15 yard line. And just NOBODY even attempts anything. They all just stand there, pointing at the endzones.
And it’s both teams. I don’t know exact numbers, but I’d guess every teams roster is 90%+ black.
And since it’s both teams, you can’t call one side a forfeit.
I think they should. Embarass the NFL on the biggest stage. The game is Feb 9th. This would be the lead story Feb 10th. They either repaint it back onto the endzones DURING the game, reschedule the game, or the whole game is 0-0, with a clock running down for 3 hours.
What would the NFL do?
Unfortunately, those players make so much money that it moves them into the big club that we ain’t in. Not a lot of class/race solidarity there, from what I’ve seen…just solidarity with whatever gets them paid.
Which I guess makes sense. The sport itself is extremely predatory, preying on young, very poor (usually) black men, offering them the promise of wealth they wouldn’t normally have access to—if they just sell their bodies and physical health to the wealthier white men who own them. So they work their asses off all through high school and college to hopefully have the chance at the NFL; joining the league literally becomes the culmination of their life’s work.
Not many want to actually rock that boat.
Hire all white people and the trump Nazis are perfectly happy?
Have you ever watched Rollerball (1975)?
Every single
Blackplayer. They’re a team, and I’m willing to believe they respect each other enough to stand still for each other.Fire all black people and somehow fault them for the whole thing.
At least if the rest of the country does not show solidarity and doesn’t organize a general strike - which is illegal by the way.
Fire every black person in the NFL??? Hooooooooboy.
2026 headline. “NFL viewership falls to 3. As in there are now 3 people still watching.”
Point taken.
Just don’t pay them, get them arrested and lease them back from the prisons. Slavery is legal in the US after all.
Pretty sure Adam Sandler produced a documentary about that years ago.
This would be fucking awesome.
So awesome it’ll never happen, but it’d make a great scene for Remember the Titans 2.
I’d love them to take a knee at the anthem. I hope someone or many do.
They shouldn’t be so political!
As the literal president who started the whole thing sits in the stands. Hopefully getting boo’d.
Here’s the nazi!
Wouldn’t want the snowflakes feeling bad about their natural tendencies, would we?

Interested to see if Kendrick is gonna have ANYTHING to say about the state of things at his performance at the halftime show.
It’s literally the only thing I’m tuning in for
Same here
He’ll call Drake a racist and the crowd will go wild. That’s the state of things.
If that’s all that happens, I’m not sure how I’ll feel about him going forward. Isn’t he meant to be the thinking man’s rapper? Kind of an educated leftist type? For him to accept a Superbowl halftime show and not be planning ANYTHING would make so much of his work and messaging become hollow to me.
On the other hand, idk what he would even do besides saying ‘fuck Trump’. That would be the weakest, most watered down shit, but you’re 100% right, that’s the state of things.
Stupid article with irritating title. They’re just changing it to Choose Love, which apparently was one of the other messages used this season.
“Choose Love” sounds a lot like the message that pastor had at his inauguration. Point being, he’s likely to be offended by that as well.
I think the point is more that they are changing it to appease the great big orange convicted criminal who is currently gutting our government and destroying affirmative action in the name of “efficiency” with a literal Nazi at the helm of that effort.
But hey, it’s only a nationally televised sporting event so who cares. 😒
Fuck the NFL. I honestly hope people torch the Superbowl over this and FuckwADUS attending like Nero in the colosseum.
Is that the love between a man or a woman or the love of a man for a fine Cuban cigar?
OP is bringing reason and common sense get them!
…in case you were curious if it performative in the first place…
Responding to the collective movement of 2020 with endzone prints was a bad look. Removing them is an even worse look. It’s like when google changed their slogan from “Don’t be evil”
Yeah we all knew they were evil before, but when they stopped claiming to not be evil they got worse.
Well. This is that for the NFL. They did almost nothing to help their players and fans, and now they’re doing even less.
More of a meta comment, but are all organisations stuck with their slogans forever?
NFL rotates these messages and this game it moves from “End racism” to “Choose love”. Next it will rotate again and people will be upset they removed the “Choose love” slogan because they are anti-LGBT?
Google changes their motto from “Don’t be evil” to “Do the right thing” and everyone is upset. One day they will change it again and everyone will be upset because of course they are not doing the right thing anymore?
Both NFL and Google are evil and deserve no sympathy, but I wonder what’s the expectation here? Never change any slogan?
Racism is over, brought to you by Bud Light
