You can see it now in practically every sport and in sports coverage. Especially ESPN, who have went out of their why to hire gay commentators, and had Madonna who compared Bush to Hitler, sing in a halftime show, just days after firing Hank Jr. for saying the same thing about Obama.
CBC: ESPN has been on the downhill slide for years; it not only tries to put a liberal slant on sports, it is the only sports network that proudly uses homosexuals to do the commentary. But allowing the brain dead Mike Tyson to rant about Sarah Palin getting "ripped by a big black stallion," has taken them to a new low.
First they give credit to -- former NBA nobody -- Glen Rice'sz book, who is obviously trying to gin-up some sales with his outrageous accusations. Then they allow a convicted rapist to fantasize about the destruction of Palin's reproductive organs by being brutally assaulted by a large black man. Enough is enough.
One example was when MLB refused to let the Mets wear 911 hats, commemorating our fallen countrymen on the tenth anniversary of when the Muslim cowards attacked us on our own soil.
CBS Sports: The New York Mets will host the Chicago Cubs for the Sunday night game in New York on the 10-year anniversary of 9/11. In commemoration of so many brave souls who either gave their lives or put their lives on the line to try and save other Americans, the Mets have an assortment of NYPD, FDNY and PAPD (that one is Port Authority PD) hats to honor the service men and women. They were going to wear them during the game, which will be seen on ESPN.To sum it up: ESPN threw a fit because they hate America.
Instead, Major League Baseball intervened. The Mets released the following statement:
“MLB set a league-wide policy as it related to caps and uniforms for September 11 and we followed the guidelines.”
There was reportedly some discussion by the Mets players to just ignore the mandate and wear the hats anyway, but they ended up calling off the idea.
"As much as we would like to as a team," player representative Josh Thole said (Ledger_NYMets on Twitter). "MLB is coming down really hard on it."
I don't think there's really much more to say than it's too bad that the MLB can't make an exception here -- especially considering all those stars and stripes hats teams wear on the 4th of July and Memorial Day.
Another prime example are the comments that were made by Josh Howard, when he was caught on video disrespecting the ‘Star-Spangled Banner’ by saying: “The Star-Spangled Banner' is going on. I don't celebrate this [expletive]. I'm black.” This statement was ironic in the fact that millions of blacks refused to root for the Mavericks because their superstar Dirk Nowitzki is white.
I guess he does have a point. How can you love Obama and the United States at the same time?
The unpatriotic haters have also gained ground in the NFL; made evident by them starting to phase the National Anthem out of pregame ceremonies.
Denver Post: The NFL and the Pittsburgh Steelers decided to start their Monday Night Football game without the National Anthem according to the Denver Post. Bad enough football has taken away all our free time in the fall and early winter. Now, it’s going to take away our patriotism?
This time, it seemed like the NFL had gone too far.
And lets not forget the World Cup. How can you write on America bashing in sports and leave the communist, socialist America haters out?
Examiner: For the record, I wasn't the one who hinted that the World Cup official who screwed the United States team out of a victory over Slovenia might be "anti-American."
But I was sure as heck thinking it.
The guy who used the term "anti-American" to describe the official from Mali is actually on the liberal side in his politics. But these days even hard-core liberals can sniff out anti-Americanism when it rears its nasty head.
For those of you unaware of the World Cup controversy, it happened like this: The Americans and the Slovenians were tied 2-2 late in the game. The Americans kicked the ball in from the sidelines and Maurice Edu kicked in what should have been the winning goal. But Malian referee Koman Coulibaly, ignoring the Slovenian players clearly mugging no fewer than three American players, called a foul against Edu, nullifying the goal.
News reports say that FIFA, the international body that governs soccer, has disciplined Coulibaly by not allowing him to officiate any more World Cup games this year. Whether Coulibaly was motivated by anti-Americanism is something only he knows.
But the phenomenon of anti-Americanism is real. And the worst examples of it I've seen in my own country, not abroad.
In fact, the people in the very country I expected to be the most anti-American turned out to have some of the friendliest cusses I've ever met, who seem to love Americans. That would be in Cuba, which I've visited three or four times.
On my first trip, I got involved with two characters who took me to a bar where they swore the movie "The Buena Vista Social Club" was filmed. Then they insisted I go to what they called a "casa familiares" (wink, wink) with a gorgeous, 19-year-old Cuban prostitute.
"Do these guys really want me to do to this sweet young girl what my country has been doing to theirs for roughly 100 years?" I asked myself. Well, they did.
And I didn't.
But no, Cubans, at least the ones I've met, aren't anti-American. But quite a few people on these shores are.
I remember the time in the early 1980s when I attended a forum sponsored by the All African People's Revolutionary Party, an organization founded by Kwame Ture, better known as the Black Power advocate Stokely Carmichael. A group of speakers was on the stage. When one denounced America, I noticed one black guy on the stage with him wildly clapping his hands.
"Who's the seal?" I asked a young woman sitting next to me.
The seal, it turned out, was an immigrant from Grenada, who went into a spiel against "American imperialism" when it was his turn to talk.
"Now that boy was downright seditious," I said to the same woman when he was finished. "And him here on a visa."
Then there are the folks -- native-born American blacks, for the most part -- who can't resist the urge to call their country "The United Snakes of America." There was the one kid in my Johns Hopkins University writing class -- the son of South Asian immigrants -- writing a paper about how any country in Europe is better than America.
I was tempted to tell him not to let the knob on America's metaphorical door hit him in the rear end on his way out.
Those school administrators in Morgan Hill, Calif., who ordered five students who wore T-shirts with American flag emblems to go home on May 5 reached a new low in anti-Americanism. Next to theirs, any anti-Americanism Coulibaly has seems downright refreshing.
Another sports arena that America hating has become common place is the world of MMA.
Chael Sonnen who is an unapologetic red white and blue America loving patriot has endured the worst kind of hate just for being patriotic, and for pounding a Brazilian who trains in a gym with Obama plastered all over the walls. The racism and anti-Americanism is obvious.
Check out Silva's gym
CBC: Sonnen is a Republican who is being discriminated against by a bunch of commies and racists in the MMA world because he has conservative views. He actually won Oregon's Republican primary election for the House of Representatives, but dropped out for reasons unknown. The other reason is, he is the only fighter to kick the crap out of the phoney Anderson Silva.
There is so much bad blood and anti-American sentiment that Sonnen couldn't even attend the last fight in Brazil because they were afraid for his safety. The America hating racists down there actually want to kill him.
