Archaeologist03 It’s the only way, hit em where it hurts-sport.
Their new abortion law is the one that I don't understand. With all the inbreeding there, you would think they would go the other way on that one!
JasonLaCanfora That's dumb. Go Texas!!
Yes my Black people , ban all sport teams in Texas , then Georgia ,Alabama, Mississippi and all the South. Then Ban all the schools too. Let’s all just move out.Then the south will be back where it was . Keep listening to dumb Black folks ,we’ll be back in chains.
NAACP That's RIDICULOUS! You're asking these athletes to potentially forego MILLIONS of dollars in the prime of their careers. And, NO, they can't necessarily just go sign with another team in a different state. If I'm an athlete, I'm ignoring this absurd request!
Fair voting, not killing babies and personal freedom to make choices. Grrr… mad at Texas
I think colored people will still take the big contracts
That want women to have right to choose to kill unborn babies, but don’t want all people to have right to choose whether to vax or not.
Good
Duck Texas n the horse it rode in on
Oh cause they can’t get a drivers license or state identification or know how to register to vote come on stop pushing a false narrative
Good.
Lmao they didn’t give a fuck if the check clears
I remember when the NAACP was relevant.
Do they own blacks?
Great use of resources. Let me see. I’m a pro athlete. I sign I make millions. I don’t sign I work at what?
Lol
Church and state
Good for them and it’s about time.
🤡
What, exactly, do restrictive laws on abortion and a ban against the vaccine mandates have to do with an African American athlete? A majority of African Americans are against the mandate, and all but one of the teams mentioned in Texas are male teams. This is race baiting.
How many college ball or pro players don’t want to wear masks?
‘Voting restrictions’... You’re joking, right...
I smell Chicken… yummy
I know lots of med students who did not apply to a single Texas program, and HS students who will not apply to any Texas colleges. Also folks boycotting Texas tech companies. braindrain shithole state txisafailedstate
You kidding me that we repeat history?! Lol. Hell half of the U S doesn’t have any idea about our history good or bad. Oh that’s right thank NAACP,LGBTQRST……. $ our”Leaders”.
HaHaHa!!! Good luck with that.😂😂😂
Typical NAACP. Boycot if you don’t get your way. Go for it🤪😝😆😀
African Americans are some of the most Pro-Life people in the country... Soo the Abortion thing.. Meh. NAACP thinks the people they represent can't get an ID; (somehow racist) but Im sure they have no issue with Vaccine passports/mandates? Political grandstanding FTW
No surprise.
So,in effort to progress advancements in rights for colored people,the NAACP is encouraging the restriction of Black athletes freely choosing to play for a team from Texas.
Notice they didn’t say that about Florida
I hope athletes heed the call.
scotbuff Atlanta?
Glad someone spoke up about the horrible things you gave to live with in Texas. Bring in the Republican crybabies trying to explain why the NAACP is wrong.
I don't blame them.
If it stops just a few premium players itll be great
Yeah right!
Lol, good luck with that. The NBA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Communist China, proving that money trumps social consciousness for pro athletes.
How’s this supposed to help black people? Black women lead the country in abortion. And the black American population has staggered around 13% because of it. While other ethnic minorities’ numbers continue to skyrocket. How’s black depopulation a sign of “Advancement?”
I say pro and college athletes need to boycott Texas sports teams.
Or just college Athletes not commiting to Texas universities or in the SEC.
Naa we good
Lots of advice about how other people should choose to make money.
Lol. Good luck with that. Having no state taxes will continue to lure businesses and athletes alike to our great state. Everyone is following the money. Texas will continue to prosper.
The NBA and NFL suffers from a serious lack of diversity. They need to hire more White, Asian and Mexican athletes.
Bravo, NAACP.....
