Lady Demon Deacons

[Woodrow77]

Attended our Lady Tiger game today. The lady Deacs took a knee during our National Athem! Why???
Here are 18 to 21 year olds playing a game they love, at a great university, getting a great education- what is there to protest?
I know I am older than most of you and not woke like many but I don’t get it. If my daughter or son was out there doing that, I would want to support them but I could not. I hope I never see our Tigers do this but I am afraid the day will come and I’ll have to make a heart breaking decision. God Bless America and Go Tigers!

When Jordan was playing I used to stick out my tongue when taking jump shots in HS.

I believe this is the exact same thing.

Because protest is as American action as smoking some ribs. They don’t believe the government is supporting their issue and they’re exercising their rights.

Thank you for sharing, @Woodrow77!

I hope your 2021 is off to a great start! All the best!

You never cease to amaze me.

That is all.

I'm afraid to see what he was hatched from.

 

[Woodrow77]

Well Chris, Thanks- all is well and great to hear from you as well as a couple of our more left leaners I was expecting. Some things never change!

 

[BarnwellTiger]

Who won the game? Serious ?

 

[CU1TruTiger4Life]

You never cease to amaze me.

That is all.

Dang. Am I way off here?

 

[Woodrow77]

Wake- we were down by 15 to 20 much of the game but made a nice comeback in the last few minutes to make it closer.

I have always liked Michael Jordan. Always will. I respect him.

Women’s basketball gon’ women’s basketball.

Protest is one thing. Disrespecting the country is another. Plenty of people disagree with things the government does or doesn’t do without demonstrating against the nation’s symbols.

And who knows what women’s basketball players are upset about.

Ahem

Ah. 10-4. I see you agree.

 

[ChicagoTiger85]

Ahem

Good example of what I was talking about.

 

[Woodrow77]

Ahem

If nothing else, you’re predictable.

 

[Trading Tiger]

Ahem

Whataboutism 101...after many and far worse egregious acts, point out that one time where the other side finally had enough and did the same thing.

 

[GoodWord28]

Likewise. The government can ignore problems and issues, but you draw the line at kneeling? You’re hilarious

You support it. Not surprised!

 

[Woodrow77]

You’ve got your team in place now. I’m sure everything will be fixed within 100 days.

 

[TooterTownTiger]

This is why u can’t have lady deacons

 

[mpresr01]

No offense to anyone but taking a knee isn't a protest... If you played sports you know taking a knee is a sign of respect of an injury or getting a lecture from a coach. Kind of stupid to think it's a protest, or that it will matter at all... But it did start with Kaepernick, so yeah it's stupid.

 

[Essolover4]

The good news is if this happened at a women’s basketball game only the family of the players saw it LOL.

 

[Buzzards Roost]

I would solve this non-problem the way our football program has without even trying. Play the anthem before the players come out. Or even better, like The Mavs tried. Not at all.
It hasn’t always been done.

Saw gamecluck girls pull the same crap earlier this year. Disgusting. Find a way to make your point without disrespecting our country.

Underrated post

Because protest is as American action as smoking some ribs.

So is honoring history and the men and women that have died defending that flag.

You don't really believe what happened at the Capitol is the same thing do you? Serious question.

No one ever defended a flag. The country, yea, but the flag, nope.

 

[Clem'sSon]

Okay. Whatever you say chief.

 

[PawsFan_]

Someone ought to remind them that the only reason there are women’s basketball scholarships is because of that horrible federal government they are protesting.

Unregulated, they’d be paying their own way.

You definitely sit when you pee.

Well, sort of. I'll certainly exercise mine by never watching some ungrateful kid from my alma mater disrespect the blood shed for their freedom that way.

It was absolutely inexcusable.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Some truth in that.

 

[JAMCRACKER99]

They are just going to pass it off like everything else Trump did for four years. The men and women of our military fought for the democratic process and the right to vote in our country. They fought so that our country can exercise the peaceful transfer of power. But let's ignore all that because it doesn'g fit their agenda.

No offense but what do you call what the people who stormed the Capital did? Was that a protest?

What exactly are those chicks upset about?
