According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tigerdroppings.com\/rant\/politics\/nfl-adds-more-wokeness-to-super-bowl-week-announces-lgbt-themed-night-of-pride\/112024851\/\"><span class=\"docx_hyperlink\">Tiger Droppings<\/span><\/a>, summertime sports like Major League Baseball (MLB) kowtowed to wokeness and obediently got in line behind the LGBTQ leaders in the gay Pride Parade. Given that football starts in August and ends in February, it doesn\u2019t intersect with the \u201cPride\u201d festivities. Therefore, it could have easily abstained from giving way to pressure to go \u201cwoke,\u201d but the DEI narrative won the war of words.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicleague.org\/nfl-joins-hands-with-lgbt-bigots\/\"><span class=\"docx_hyperlink\">Catholic League<\/span><\/a> slammed the NFL for succumbing and joining to the anti-Catholic LGBTQ+ organization GLAAD. The Catholic League questioned if it was taboo to host an anti-gay group, why wasn\u2019t it the same for hosting anti-Christian groups, and why they weren\u2019t reaching out to Muslim, Jewish, and Christian young boys instead of fixating on LBGTQ+ \u201cboys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Catholic League likened the NFL\u2019s action to that of MLB. Reportedly, the \u2018Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence\u2019 were invited, uninvited, but ultimately reinvited and praised at the L.A. Dodgers Pride Night in June.<\/p>\n<p>Catholic League pointed toward the NFL commissioner Roger Goodell as the catalyst for the wokeness, noting that left-wing politics in the NFL was not a secret, but embracing Catholic bigotry was out, and their fans would weigh heavily against them.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Robyn Spradlin is a freelance journalist working as a contributor for Christian News Journal covering news and politics on the national and state levels.
