NFL will remove 'End Racism' from the end zones ahead of Super Bowl

The announcement comes the same day a White House official told NBC News that President Donald Trump would be attending the game.

Trump has made his stance against diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives clear since he took, signing an executive order on his first day in office to end DEI programs in federal agencies and putting employees in those programs on leave.

...

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said at a news conference Monday that he does not think the league's policies to promote diversity conflict with Trump's push to eliminate DEI programs.


AS LONG AS THEY ARE INVISIBLE.

What a piece of shit.

Thinking all great hockey players going to hell have eternity to play but no ice.
The joke was a golfer who goes to he'll.
When he gets there, they give him top of the line clubs, his own caddy, the best shoes, best clothes.
They give him a locker in the posh clubhouse & an eternal membership on a perfect in every way, golf course.
Goes out to the first tee to tee off in front of Satan. Caddy hands me a tee, but no ball.
He says "I'm going to need a gold ball."
Satan says "No balls. This is hell after all. "
