Male Cheerleaders?

“On the SIDE OF DIVERSITY?” Are there two sides to that??? I guess we should all be the same, think the same, look the same worship the same.SMH
BTW I did a bunch of spots with NFL players and Michelle Beadle asked one of them if there were any gays on his team. He said he didn’t know but if the guy wanted to find someone who shared his orientation he probably wouldn’t have to look further than his own team. And a quote from Mathew Stafford when asked if it would bother him, “if the guy can play, I don’t give a shit.”

Have you read the news, looked on social media, or anything regarding this topic outside of this forum? It's great you don't consider it a big deal or a bother, but there are plenty that do (I'd say a majority) and are tired of the political messaging in sports

I've seen conservative media and Social Media (Charlie Kirk, Paul Syzpula, Clay Travis, etc) having a cow, but that's it.  While I recognize that as a viewpoint, it's hardly the entire worldview or even the majority.  However, if that's all you consume for news and social media, I could understand how one would think "the whole country is upset about this".

I would venture to guess if you took a silent poll of the fanbase, an overwhelming majority would elect to not have males dressed in cheerleading gear and pom poms as part of their cheer squad. That's a reasonable assumption considering most football fans are heterosexual males. 
As far as opinions go, the Wilfs served it up as a talking point (like they wanted) so people are going to talk about it. Feel free to not read it if you are offended.

I would venture to guess if you took a silent poll of your silent poll the overwhelming majority would admit to being fans of one or more of pro wrestling, amateur wrestling or MMA. What's more homoerotic than oiled up/sweaty dudes rubbing up on one another? While "totally straight real men" cheer them on.

Answer, hairless oiled up/sweaty dudes rubbing up on one another while wearing what amounts to panties. While "totally straight real men" cheer them on. Don't get me started on adult men who enjoy watching youth amateur wrestling. 

Let's talk about "totally straight real men" who cosplay as their favorite sportsballer. How gay is it to walk around wearing another man's name on your back? Might as well get a tramp stamp with a players number! If not gay, it's for sure serious cuck vibes. Which if that's your thing cool. 

Fans being a cuck for their football daddies impacts me as much as male cheerleaders impacts you. But be serious, men wearing other men's jerseys is just a step above holding your prison daddy pockets so the yard knows who you belong to.

We are talking about football here though and football fans, which are predominately straight males and it's safe to assume a majority of that crowd doesn't want what the Wilfs are serving up. It's certainly not the entire world's viewpoint, but it's a viewpoint (I'd wager the majority) that makes up a substantial amount of fans. Again, see the Bud Light debacle they are still trying to buy their way out of. As a business owner, to simply bypass the likely majority viewpoint and add an unnecessary distraction heading into the season that doesn't need to be there all in the name of ownerships social agenda...just isn't smart.

Was that directed my way CAActor because I was the only one that brought up Diversity?  I didn't think what I said was all that controversial.  Diversity by definition relates to difference, separateness, variety.  The Left has co-opted the word to mean something different.  To be truly diverse, you have to be willing to embrace all values and viewpoints...not just the ones that agree with you.  I chuckle when I hear an impassioned defense of Diversity while simultaneously attacking those those that disagree..you know...those that represent a diverse viewpoint.  It's also amusing to me to listen to your LA Mayor talk about the illegal immigrants as adding to the diversity of the City.  Last I checked, the Hispanics represented just under half the City population with Caucasians down around 25%.  Adding more Hispanics to a Hispanic majority doesn't make LA more "diverse".  Somebody missed math class....

By the way...why would anyone think its anybody's business to ask whether there were gays on the team?  That seems a bit intrusive.

90% of the diversity movement is people looking out for their own or virtue signaling. It’s anything but diverse. Lol
