My thoughts as well. Add to that the “saggin pants” trend. Ties back to the slavery days and was a message that an unruly slave had been “broken”. “Broken” slaves had been sodomized by the plantation owner or associates as punishment for their aggressive misdeeds. Reasoning via analogies that should hit home may not have any effect though, we are talking about 18-21 year olds on a mission. At that age I fought as hard for a lot less & was often blind and deaf to any opinion other than my own.- 2019-2020 PGA Tour
From last years stats Gary Woodland is the best power/accuracy off the tee. 308 yds #13 & 86% accuracy @ #T17. It’s tough to be elite in multiple categories when you are up against the top 150 in the world. When your third best “tool” gets hot is when these guys bank.- 2019-2020 PGA Tour

The salary/charitable concept you described is laughable.. let’s not forget who is financing this country. Dead on in regards to education, that is the single most important & obtainable task to further equality. The poverty stricken urban areas provide virtually zero chance to live the American dream. The issue grows every single day, something has to be done & now. Side note, LeBron James’ commitment to send qualifying/troubled kids to college at no cost paid huge dividends. Nearly 2000 kids who were on track to either drop out or end a futile attempt at education at 12th grade will be attending Kent State University.- College Football in 2020 in danger?
Players shouldn’t be as effected by the lack of fans. They played their entire careers up til the PGA (avg age 27 or so as rookies) in front of little to any fans.- College Football in 2020 in danger?

He admits he is a Sooner on Surley, eternal benefit of the doubt in my book.- Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it
Not sure that will effect the offended parties, but personally it helps justify my feelings (rather keep the Eyes if possible & support all other requests aside from BLM funding). To each their own but I asked my son about his maternal heritage & the fact he wore a Hugo Boss suit to several Jewish events with knowledge of the ties to the Nazi Party. He stated his awareness & sees the brand as it operates today vs it’s past in a circumstantial era.

Just this am was thinking this would be a great idea, but not at Texas “Don’t mess with Texas (Uni’s)”. Separate note: Anyone know if “The Eyes” was exclusively a minstrel/black faced Cowboys application for an extended period of time or was it a one off &/or blended with several scenarios after that original intro?- Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it
Yup. Best guess, all requests will be honored In large part with the exception of The Eyes & the funding of BLM. That will satisfy most but not all, in this scenario we move forward as a better place with the ones who really have the University in their hearts.- Juwan Mitchell
Not necessarily. Sounds like he quoted the potential defense of why The Eyes are so important to “the other side” if not BMD’s particular. Regardless, things are moving but they aren’t settling overnight & emotions are high yet not permanent. Shall we say fluid? I respect the right to his opinion, but it does seem like Mitchell isn’t a good fit here. If true that he quit before, regardless of your feelings you have to let him go In peace and don’t look back. should be noted that the vast majority of social media supports these young men & their right to stand up for their opinion. Regardless of outcome, the support & recognition is important. Changes will be made for the better & whoever & whatever stays will benefit from a stronger & greater institution. No person or tradition is greater than the University & it’s supporters.- Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it

Yes, your description is a lot easier on the eyes/ears for those that struggle to see the bottom line. 3rd policy change listed by Gottlieb should help with the defense of “The Eyes”, what the sagging pants means to these young men is far different than that of its origin/introduction. Change is inevitable folks & if it helps, let’s remember when our bedrooms & locker rooms where initially banned from the “Devil” & “Highway to Hell”.
