NFL only cares about the money and keeping you focused on watching sports rather than paying attention to the more important current events. Sports entertainment will never fix corrupted juridical system. Like damn near every country in this world has corrupted judges. Only we can solve this problem, having more unity in our neighbourhoods, better monitoring. Something like that. Something where judges would have no chance but to give a punishment those cops deserve, so other pigs would stop abusing their powers because most of them got families to feed also.

NFL is just gonna do some publicity stunt that's all...and bringing in Jay-Z to NFL means possibly more international fans checking out football (even if they don't know the game rules that well they may tune in because of music artists they like), so in other words they will swap those boycotting fans with new fans thanks to Roc Nation popularity :mjpls:

It’s hard to know without it playing out. The intent is important, can live with something not working but if it’s not genuine intentions that’s not good. Jay said action do what exactly are they going to do? Are they going to lobby for better treatment for the players and their grievances on social issues. Are they going to raise money for worthy social causes. Are they gonna disalogue wity the police, maybe with the backing of some with power and influence to try and make some changes in policing or to bring understanding. There’s an argument it won’t work and devils will be devils, but it’s whether the intentions end up being pure or not. Is Jay thinking about just himself and his position or is he trying to use his position to help others. At this point I can’t tell for sure, will have to see based of actions. And I agree with the better monitoring etc, community orientated projects and protection, lawyers and resources available etc. Will see how this all pans out better over time.

A lot of talk in here about Kap "sacrificing" his career. Do you really think Kap thought when he was kneeling that it would result in him not being able to get work in the league? Before you say yes, REMEMBER, when that season was over, Kap OPTED OUT of his deal which would have paid him $14.5 milly the next year. His contract was actually good thru 2020. He thought he could get a better deal the next year. He didn't count on the MASS IGNORANCE AND RACISM of Americans who failed to realize he was doing exactly what is supposed to separate America from other countries - the right to peaceful protest. I actually don't believe ALL the owners cared that much about the kneeling itself. Of course some of them are racist ignorant b*stards and that was their primary reason for blackballing him. But what they ALL did care about was the potential lost $$$ from those angry ignorant fans.who were crying like little bytches,


OMFG... thank you..

Been saying this shyt for 4ever....

You've been following Hip Hop for a while, am I right? Don't fall for the bait. Jay has always been jumping on trends, waves, all that shyt. You know how he got rich, and he is not risking his career at all. There is a fake woke rapper trend right now. With people getting tired of shyt that's happening in America here comes these fake woke rappers doing their best "we shall overcome" song impression.
NFL gives no fukks about crooked cops, they most likely hired Jay-Z to fix their image so they could make more money, because all this kneeling, news about lots of players getting very serious injuries and NFL not taking care of them good enough....they gotta fix their image for more profit. Now we are getting rumors that Jay might own NFL team in the future, so here we go, he will own couple of percents of some bum ass NFL team giving false hope to black folks that we are moving in the right direction :russ: Please surprise me, if Jay manages to change something I'll be very surprised. To me he is more like Oprah rather than Michael Jackson, if you know what I mean.

Coke boy Vince probably sitting in the office thinking of what black superstar he's gonna partner with, so he could fix his company too :deadmanny:

Some in the league office believed Roc Nation had essentially appointed itself as the league's marketing arm. And some league officials believed Roc Nation employees treated NFL staff dismissively, angering those who sincerely wanted to help find solutions to the league's social justice problem.

Top league executives and at least a few owners believe the alliance has worked, beyond the more than $250 million the league has raised to commit toward social justice causes. Executives believe that Roc Nation has raised the bar with Super Bowl halftime shows the past few years. The affiliation with Jay-Z has helped the NFL improve its image on race with fans, according to an executive outside the NFL with knowledge of the league's internal data.



Sellouts....all of em..
