WEBVTT - Rush's Timeless Wisdom - Black Lives Matter Messages Crash NBA, MLB Ratings

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:05.080
<v Speaker 1>How about this, folks, ratings crash for the NBA four

0:00:05.120 --> 0:00:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball after protest filled debuts. Who was it

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:13.840
<v Speaker 1>that predicted this was going to happen? I think it

0:00:13.920 --> 0:00:17.439
<v Speaker 1>was your host. As the NBA and the Major League

0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:22.919
<v Speaker 1>Baseball returned from their coronavirus imposed hiatus, it appears that

0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:27.120
<v Speaker 1>television viewers are not interested in what the increasingly woke

0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:32.640
<v Speaker 1>leagues have to offer. With both baseball and basketball draped

0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:36.559
<v Speaker 1>and all sorts of Black Lives Matter and social justice

0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>symbolism for their opening games, a substantially smaller number of

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:44.920
<v Speaker 1>fans tuned into the rest of the week's games. The

0:00:44.920 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>openers did okay, but after that, so folks, it is

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:56.160
<v Speaker 1>clear the American people majority have no interest in watching

0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>something with b l M all over the pictures mound,

0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:02.680
<v Speaker 1>black Lives Matter all over the signage and ballparks. They

0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:04.480
<v Speaker 1>don't want to tune in to watch a bunch of

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:09.160
<v Speaker 1>players kneeling during the American national anthem. They just don't

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 1>want to see it. And I hope the people the

0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:15.560
<v Speaker 1>NFL are watching this. I hope the people. I doubt

0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:19.520
<v Speaker 1>it because I think Twitter runs American sports now. I

0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 1>think Twitter and Nike are running professional sports. But I'm

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:29.119
<v Speaker 1>telling you, these ratings crashes have nothing to do with

0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:31.840
<v Speaker 1>the fact that arn'ty fans in the stadiums. The American

0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 1>people just don't want to be preached to by a

0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Marxist pro communist organization while they are trying to get

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:48.240
<v Speaker 1>enthused and excited about the return of major league professional sports.

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>It's not complicated to understand it all.
