Counter-Currents

I’ve met people who have told me that they have never had a sip of alcohol in their life because their parents were alcoholics and they vowed to themselves that they would never follow in their footsteps. I am that way with sports.
No one in my family had a healthy interest in sports. For my dad, his interest in sports was all-consuming. He would buy multiple newspapers for the sports section and then there was the endless hours of sports talk radio in the car which were only made tolerable by the knowledge that my dad’s taste in music worse than sports.
Worse yet was that my family were not merely sports fans but college sports fans. If you are a pro sports fan, your football or basketball team only plays a few months a year. However, in college sports, your team is the college and it plays all year around: football in the fall and winter and basketball in the spring. In a way, college sports fans are more like fans of European soccer whose leagues have 9 month seasons. As a result, for college sports fans, their team is a much bigger part of their identity.
I looked at my dad and to a lesser extent my brother’s sports obsessions and it seemed like a lot of work. You couldn’t just watch the games. You had to do all this studying, listen to the post game analysis, and worry about who’s injured. Worse still, you had to be pissed off the entire next day if your team lost. As a kid, I looked at all this and said, “OK, if that is what being a sports fan is, I’ll stick to comic books.”
It wasn’t until I was in high school where I saw what a healthy interest in sports looked like: people who could watch a game here and there but not get really obsessive about it, but by then, I already had my own interests and felt no need to acquire a new taste.
However, as I get older, I wish I liked sports as there are obvious social advantages. I’ve always envied how sports fans can strike up a conversation with a complete stranger like the guy next to them at the bar, a potential client, or whoever. “How about that game last night? What was the ref thinking?” and then away they are talking. The two might have nothing else in common. I’ve always thought that must be a very useful social tool to have. There are also all sorts of sport-related get-togethers that I could go to and enjoy. There’s a lot more stuff to do if you like sports.
And yet, I genuinely do not enjoy watching sports. Never have. Not sure I even understand the appeal but I wish I did.
While I don’t like sports, I’m not anti-sports hardliner. There is much to criticize about sports, certainly from a white nationalist perspective. Sports fandom encourages negrophilia, it’s a huge time sink, and saps a lot of mental energy from people which should be put towards the 14 words.
All true and yet I can’t help but feel that it’s “bad optics” to criticize sports. It’s not that you would be “wrong” in your criticism, but that it’s not a hill to die on.
For one, I think there is a tendency for white nationalists to overlook the pro-social aspects of sports. Sometimes sports fandom is intertwined with family tradition. “My grandpa took my dad to Yankees games when he was a kid, my dad took me to Yankees games, and when I have kids, I will take them to Yankees games.” Sometimes extended families will converge to watch games together each weekend. Such families might see each other less if sports did not exist.
What are you supposed to tell these people? Are they supposed to stop showing up to their parents’ house for Sunday game night? The reality is politics doesn’t offer its own alternative. People gather to watch presidential debates and election night results, but in general, politics is not something that you can get together do with your friends.
In general, I think the less money there is in a sport, the less toxic it is. There is something about being in a college town on game day, seeing the community come together, and feeling a certain energy in the air. I enjoy the game day atmosphere more than I enjoy watching an actual game. There are parts of America where people go nuts over high school football.
A political reason not to be anti-sports is that if you are ever going to run for local office, it would behoove you to start showing up to your local high school’s sports events to establish yourself as a friend of the community.

I am very anti-spectating sports but very pro-playing sports oneself and other forms of athleticism such as running, hiking, swimming etc. Watching other men struggle without doing it yourself, even if only occasionally, just seems cucked and boring. I’m the same way with video games, I don’t understand the appeal of watching streamers (many of whom are disheveled) play when I could do it myself even if I’m not as good.
Mike Royko once quipped “The only person dumber than one who listens to sports talk radio is one who actually calls into the show.” Boy did he hit the nail on the head.
I don’t follow the major sports because of the negro factor. I’ve brought this up to friends many times. They always agree with me, but it never changes their minds. I see nothing wrong with attending a Super Bowl party just to see friends and share a potluck dinner. It always seems like nobody pays attention to the game.
The only two sports I follow are golf and horse racing. Golf because it’s 90% white and I can still play. Horse racing because I’m one of the few people left that knows how to read a racing form and because it matches your wits against the general public’s. Ask me who I like on the first Saturday of May.
Have you seen the move Big Fan? It is a most unflattering portrayal of sports fans. Paul and his autistic buddy listen to a sports talk radio show. Paul is a regular caller. I wrote a review and analysis, available here.
Good review. I’ll check the movie out.
I agree with David Zsutty in regards to participating and playing sports. I do enjoy and prefer watching individual sports that are dynamic. Golf is a snoozer and tennis is awe inspiring at the top level. That said, watching on television constantly is a waste of a life. I will go to a professional tennis match once in a while. If there is a legendary match of a generation, I will watch the re-run and regret not seeing it live when the tension is high and the outcome unknown. Those are rare enough that spending time on my own cultivation and pursuits is worth what is missed.
Tennis is nice because until very recently it was a gentleman’s sport played by top athletes in peak performance across all dimensions: extreme hand-eye coordination; extreme fitnesss; extreme refined skill; power; speed; strategy; discipline. They also coach themselves during the match, making emotional fitness and strength as well as tactical and strategic correction another dimension of skill that is rare in modern sports. We all know the racial makeup of it too.
An athletic command performance is extremely rare, but it is a beautiful thing to see.
For the rest, I agree with the point about it being a social ingress that the politically minded should invest something of themselves in to be a part of the millieu. However, sports are the metaphor, trojan horse and shrine of worship for borderless globalism and replacism.
I’m no sports fan, but have on rare occasions sought to check in on some (e.g. a tennis match or impressive baseball plays on a suggested YT video, etc.) The best reason I can think of for this is that it comes from a yearning to connect with uncontroversial normality. However, the negrocentrism is an absolute deal breaker.
But yeah, if a person can reconcile his race realism and watching sports, it’s not a good hill to die on.
In the future,
there will be no WAR.
But there will be:

To paraphrase William L Pierce, “What does it say about a white man that sits around and watches black athletes.” 💩
The healthiest way to enjoy sports is to play it yourself. I was a linebacker long ago, and now I’m into weightlifting. I’m in no danger of winning a championship, though I’m doing pretty well for my age group. All told, personal involvement is a lot better than yelling at the t00b for two hours on the couch, with one hand holding a beer and the other in a bag of corn chips.
I loved football. I played it in high school. I was a devout Lions fan as a kid and a young man. Every fall I was excited about the beginning of the season. As an adult I would reserve Sunday afternoons to watch my favorite NFL team on the television.
A few years ago, I came to a sad, bitter realization: the blacks had wrecked football. White football players behaved stoically on and off the field. They were cool, composed, and won and lost with class. Black players with their “trash talking,” end-zone dancing and constant attention-seeking antics changed the whole experience of watching. The blacker the teams became, the worse it got.
And now, corporate NFL is in possession of the “civil rights” gang and even the commercials during the games are lectures on the evils of “racism.”
I quit football fandom years ago, don’t miss it, and recovered
I’m pretty much the same situation. Football is the only sport I ever cared to play and consistently watch. Now they’ve even changed the rules to take most of the violence out of the game, so it has lost its essence. Even if it was all white, it would be much less entertaining with this new format. College football, which I used to prefer, has been particularly destroyed by rules changes and is now as soulless and corporate as the NFL.
I still enjoy the Winter Olympics. High school football can be entertaining depending on where you live. That’s about it for me with sports these days.
The Lions?! Aren’t they like one of the worst teams in the NFL? Is that sort of like a metaphor for white nationalism, you are addicted to the lost causes?
Yes, the Detroit Lions, maybe the only one of the original NFL franchises from the 1920s that has never even been in a Super Bowl. Yes again, a “lost cause,” and — I hadn’t thought about it, but you’re right, a metaphor for White Nationalism, given it’s the Detroit Lions and what the blacks did the once great city of Detroit.
If you’re in Britain boxing isn’t bad at all. 95% Anglo Saxon/Celt participants. Not as technically good as the Americans on the elite stage but I know who I’d want on my side in a real battle. Just tough working class English/Scottish and Welsh lads.
Formula 1 another 99.9999% White sport with outstanding displays of White genius culture.
Error on my part, was not replying to DarkPlato. Was attempting to add a comment to the general discussion to the article.
Yeah but now the whites imitate the blacks and celebrate and showboat, but they don’t do it in a funny black way but in sort of head banging Beavis and Butthead way. It was better before the white guys celebrated. They celebrated so little in the late 1960s that it was a big deal for Joe Namath to put his finger in the air.
I think watching sports is fine if you have a connection to the players, and your team is really your team. If your home team is not from there, what’s the point? If the English national team is not English, what’s the point? But if they are, then supporting the team can be a way of supporting your own. I’d rather see a little league game with kids that I know from my own neighborhood than any bunch of African mercenaries.
Even back in the days when (British) football teams consisted of white men with terrible hairstyles, I never understood how fans of the town-based teams could feel any great loyalty when those teams included few, if any, local men. A football fan once explained to me that it was all about ‘the club’ not the players, but I’m afraid that went over my head.
When my coworkers dragged me to a baseball game last year, the crowd booed for Shohei Ohtani because apparently he had snubbed our city’s offer in favour of LA’s.
When I visited Japan, I saw Ohtani on an astounding amount of advertising – he is apparently the most celebrated Japanese man today, despite the fact that he plays for LA, rather than a Japanese team.
It makes my city’s audience look like absolute clowns to boo him – as if he has any connection to one American city or another.
The thing I notice most about sports fans is the deep-throated, almost involuntary YEAHHH roar they give out while watching their favorite negro do something spectacular on a sportsbar TV. And this roar comes from everyone, even the skinny nebbishy ones. That is the only situation where such a roar coming from a white man is acceptable. Imagine hearing it while they were doing something useful and not related to moving a stupid ball around.
It makes me a third-string George Carlin, but I must ask, what is it with the goddamn ball, in all its sizes and shapes? Friggin golf balls, ping pong, pinball, soccer, billiards, baseball, etc.? Leave the balls alone, and they’ll leave us alone, and we’ll be mutually better for it.
This wise professor can tell us a lot about all that:
Black History Month Special The War of the Balls (counter-currents.com)
Hockey is a good White spectator sport. Until recently it was almost completely Pale, but then someone must have found a line in the Magna Carta that stated every team must have one negro in the lineup. Kind of reduced my enjoyment of the game because we all know where this eventually leads. But, for now, it’s still very watchable and you don’t feel dirty like you do after watching football or basketball anywhere above the high school level.
During the summer of George Floyd, activists and Canadian hockey officials started to demand that Canadian teams have more black players. I can’t remember which game it was, but Canadian officials had the phrase “black lives matter” displayed on the marque. That was another sign that sports had become corrupted.
The institutions of sports (i.e., football, basketball, etc.) lost all credibility the first time that non-whites were allowed to participate since they were created to condition and refine the white race. The institutions of education and government (i.e., local, state and federal) lost credibility when non-whites were allowed to participate. 🤮
Hockey is a good White spectator sport.
Skijumping is even better if whiteness is what you’re looking for. I’d say that 99 per cent of the athletes on the FIS World Cup circuit are whiter than white. There are a couple of Japanese, too, mind you. But that’s it for foreigners AFAIK, and I watch this religiously on streaming all winter long. There’s a Turk in there somewhere, too, but he is nowhere near the top of the bunch.
The real biggie – which marks the end of the skijumping season – is coming up at Planica in Slovenia March 27-30th. This is a ski flying event and final competition for world champion.
Usually there’s much enthusiasm and jollity among the crowd in all skijumping events, whether it’s normal hill, large hill or ski flying hill. Real white folks – no matter how cold, they just bundle up and show up.
I do admit to viewing our home team each week if possible. We’re spoiled in Kansas City with the Chiefs. But not having cable makes it nearly impossible to view much more sports and I find myself watching less and less. I was a successful player in all the major sports, except soccer, so I can relate nicely to the nuances. But my emotional attachment to viewing has definitely waned and the blackness is a major cause. Not to mention the heavy handed approach to rights of everyone but whites. I read stats and follow my favorites online reading about games rather than watching. Never saw the allure of fantasy sports and the time and effort spent researching the players and such. I’m glad I didn’t get hooked on it because I was certainly around some who did. Reading about the game lets you use your mind to envision the play. Listening to a baseball game on the radio still has its charms. Going to a game with a couple of good friends is worth it too. In moderation of course.
I read the entire Guiness Book of World Records except for the Sports section. Sports is profoundly dull!
The reality is politics doesn’t offer its own alternative. People gather to watch presidential debates and election night results, but in general, politics is not something that you can get together do with your friends.
Au contrarie! Politics today is very much a “sporting” style entertainment event. Witness our WWE president go at it with members of his or opposing “teams” (Republicans, Democrats, Allies and “Adversaries”). Mutch to ponder and strategize over, either alone or at a bar in a group meetup perhaps.
Once you learn this it’s much easier to sit back, relax, and root for your favorite team as a means of blowing off steam after a long day.
Great article but you didn’t mention cuckoldry. I remember listening to a CC podcast where one of the hosts compares wearing a sports jersey with some dude’s name on it to the epitome of cuckoldry and that really enabled me to articulate clearly why I don’t like people with an unhealthy sports obsession. Perhaps that’s why you don’t like watching it too!
Get your mind out of the gutter.
It’s basically the sports equivalent of wearing a band t-shirt and like band t-shirts, wearing jerseys with your favorite player’s name is something people tend to grow out of.
Do you know anyone that sits at home and watches concerts with their band shirt on and starts cheering? Oh wait I’m thinking of sports fans. Lol love the effort at analogy tho.
I hate sports now. I did my share in youth, but my team sports were only done to boost my college applications. For actual enjoyment, I preferred the racquet sports. I did enjoy tennis and squash a lot when I was young. I also had a (mandatorily) coed intra-city volleyball team for years as a thirty-something in the 90s, but while I got competitive about the actual games, I mainly did it as a fun way to meet large numbers of single girls.
I’ve always hated watching sports, whether on TV or live. I’ve been really lucky, too – I’ve been given free tix to several pro-football and baseball games that sports guys have told me were, in retrospect, ‘epic’ contests. And yet, while in those stadiums, I was bored to death and couldn’t wait to go home. Today, if I received a free ticket even to the Super Bowl, I’d pass if I couldn’t sell it (but I’d take one to Wimbledon, just to say I’ve been there).
The only sportscasts I’ve ever enjoyed were those old Sunday afternoon NFL week-highlights. All the old slow-mo was pretty cool. But I’d pass on those today, too (even if I owned a TV). There is too much I want to read, fiction and scholarship, in my too-limited free time, and as my life winds down …
I was so obsessed with professional boxing that I became a credentialed media member within the sport, covering live events, writing stories, and interacting with the sports’ various participants. It was a wild ride with some very memorable moments and experiences but generally speaking it made watching the fights a very high stress endeavor. Today, a few years after embracing Christianity and discovering the word of God, I have no tolerance for or interest in boxing.

That’s interesting, Jeffrey, your trading an obsession with boxing for an obsession with the word of Yahweh.
Since race is of uppermost interest to many at Counter-Currents, I woder if you are young enough to be aware of Muhammed Ali’s opinion of race-mixing 50 years ago: Ali’s Wisdom | National Vanguard
“Man, I was in Chicago a couple of months ago and saw a white fella take a black woman into a motel room. He stayed with her two or three hours and then walked out — and a bunch of brothers saw it and didn’t even say nothin’. They should have thrown rocks at his car or kicked down the door while he was in there screwing her — do something to let him know you don’t like it. How can you be a man when another man can come get your woman or your daughter or your sister — and take her to a room and screw her — and, nigger, you don’t even protest?…
“A black man should be killed if he’s messing with a white woman…. Raping, patting, abusing, showing our women disrespect — a (White) man should die for that…. We will kill you, and the brothers who don’t kill you will get their behinds whipped and probably get killed themselves if they let it happen and don’t do nothin’ about it.”

Travis asks: ...Such families might see each other less if sports did not exist.What are you supposed to tell these people?

You might explain to them the Roman concept of bread and circuses (or “bread and games”; from Latin: panem et circenses) — activities or official plans that are intended to keep people happy and to stop them from noticing or complaining about problems [such as promotion of race-mixing and homosexuality]…
I was born in 1970 and so much of what I experienced of the living, reigning Muhammad Ali was through the naive eyes of a child. A lot of that radical racial stuff went over my head or in many cases I was simply unaware of it. I did understand that Ali was somebody whose well worked mouth was a piece for more than just his own imagination. I never got the impression that he hated white people in fact I think he liked us or grew to like us. As a Vet who thinks the Vietnam war was America’s ONLY GOOD WAR, I have mixed feelings about his refusal to step forward for induction but that’s anyone’s right, to accept the consequences of one’s actions. He surely did. Now that he’s gone and my obsession with the sport he redefined is gone, I see him much more critically than I ever did. I used to really love him, thinking he was everything he said he was. As a new Christian, I can see that he tried to claim titles reserved only for Christ such as King of the World etc. Did you know that the last two world heavyweight champions have been Christian white men? Yup, true story.

I must disagree with you on at least three things, Jeffrey.
Ali was not the greatest heavyweight boxer. My choice: undefeated Rocky Marciano (50-0).
Vietnam was a shitty war, not America’s ONLY GOOD WAR. America’s only good wars, arguably, were racial ones with Mexico and the Indian wars.
Jesus may be your king, but he is not mine. He’s mythical, not real, and his daddy up in the sky is an imaginary Jewish spook.
I grew up in Brockton so when it comes to Rocky you will get no argument from me. I’m actually good friends with the fella who owns his childhood home on Dover Street. I also covered the unveiling of his statue in Brockton (at the high school I attended) in 2012. As for your unbelief, I pray you can overcome it. That’s no way to live, in fact it’s the way to die.
Ukrainians have controlled the heavyweight division for most of the last couple of decades: The Klitschko Brothers and Oleksandr Usyk. Tyson Fury was in the mix as well for awhile, but he doesn’t have the discipline of the Ukes.
“Man, I was in Chicago a couple of months ago and saw a white fella take a black woman into a motel room.

I was unaware of those PB comments, but I had seen videos of interviews Muhammad Ali gave on talk shows where he matter-of-factly said that no White parents should want kinky-haired grandchildren, and stated how unnatural miscegenation was.
Ironically, Ali’s black Muslim daughter Rasheed, married an Italian-American Christian & birthed two racially mixed-up sons.
Kim: March 16, 2025 [Ali] stated how unnatural miscegenation was…. Ironically, Ali’s black Muslim daughter Rasheed, married an Italian-American Christian & birthed two racially mixed-up sons.

I can imagine his disappointment after making such public statements against race-mixing. He was merely stating the policy of his adopted religion, the Nation of Islam, against unnatural, forced integration of the races.
You might enjoy this chat I had in real time with a NOI leader and two Black integrationists nearly 30 years ago: Forward Vision | National Vanguard. My Black separatist counterpart and I found common ground on several issues.
… What transpired then can be fairly described as a Jewish media controller’s worst nightmare: Two nationalists of different races agreeing on the importance of racial separation, the evils of integration and miscegenation, and the dangers posed by Jewish media control. And all along, even the nominally integrationist Blacks hosting the show — totally unlike the Jews’ highly-paid attack dogs on the national networks — actually allow free speech and open discussion. Let’s listen in to some excerpts from that program right now…
Ah, a live, uninterrupted civil racial conversation! Today this is practically unheard of. The best I could do until last week or so, was to trade comments with some of the newcomers to America who were writing long articles to the local paper about how much they deserve & how much they want to change things (push communism) since they have stepped onto American soil.
I seem to have been the only voice pushing back. I’d offer letters from a Black Nationalists in Africa, who were begging blacks who fled Nigeria for America, to return home with knowledge gained from U.S. universities, in order to strengthen their African nation.
“You might explain to them the Roman concept of bread and circuses (or “bread and games”; from Latin: panem et circenses) — activities or official plans that are intended to keep people happy and to stop them from noticing or complaining about problems [such as promotion of race-mixing and homosexuality]…”
This. That’s what mainstream sports are today: distractions in order to ignore that their race and world are going towards the abyss, and be thankful for it.
I see masses of people, peregrinating towards the modern colliseums whevener there are games playing. Like a cult; the stadiums, bars, and living rooms are their temples, the jerseys are like robes, and the chants their hymns.
The social aspect… what a decadent, multicultural society where the only thing that people has in common is prolefeed content that they see on TV. Alienation is rampant.
I guess this should be expected, as the modern system of today has made negro sports to be the only acceptable way of social gathering without any stigma at all.
It is not the concept of sports by itself. It is the system that promotes multicultural alienation, endless consumerrism and shallow connections.
The system itself must be destroyed.
Sports are just another dimension of jewish indoctrination and conditioning for the new world order. White men who watch black dominated sports have self-emasculated (figuratively, slicing off their own gonads). The last three Super Bowls have been won by black quarterbacks and the trend is going to continue until the jews have made all important positions non-white (i.e., coaches, quarterbacks, etc.). This has all been laid out in the jew Roderick Seideberg’s books, Anatomy of the Future (1961) and Post-Historic Man (1950). ☠️
Also, the artificial elevation of black athletes leads to miscegenation with white women and mulatto children. Added to that is the fact that the vast majority of these professional athletes will be bankrupt in a few years after they leave the NFL, NBA, etc.
You obviously don’t follow football in Europe :
Rangers ultras at Ibrox: “Out with the woke, defend Europe”
https://www.ilprimatonazionale.it/approfondimenti/gli-ultras-del-rangers-a-ibrox-fuori-il-woke-difendi-leuropa-285495/
https://www.ilprimatonazionale.it/calcio/calcio-e-repressione-un-sinistro-filo-rosso-285143/
And on the flip side of that we have Celtic FC supporters (and almost every one other than Rangers) hold woke signs, cucked to race mixing and unfurling tifos of Mussolini hanged when they play SS ‘based’ Lazio FC.
90% of footy teams and fans are woke. Even Chelsea turned woke.
I absolutely hate footy now but I’ll always wear my SS Lazio shirts with the eagle to signal my allegiance . Most anti White Americans have no idea what SS Lazio represents but the eagle is enough to make them squeamish and suspicious.
Di Canio has thrown Romans on the pitch. I know very little of European football but I’ve heard that Chelsea used to be the Nationalist team in the Headhunters era and Millwall was like a poorer Chelsea. I’ve always gotten an awful vibe from Tottenham and then I saw who a bulk of their supporters were.
For those white nationalists out there who are determined to do one-on-one recruiting, find out if the person is a big sports fan. If they are, then this person has been compromised. It is a big red flag, “Danger! Will Robinson, danger!” —do not confide in this person! 👻👹☠️
Wrestling, real wrestling, is a great sport. And it is still mainly, though not exclusively, white. I’m surprised no one here seems to have wrestled in high school. I coach youth wrestling. I’ve rarely met a stupid wrestler.
I too grew up in the 70s and spent a lot of time with my dad watching sports: football, baseball, and golf, but never basketball which even back then we called niggerball. It was something we could do together, and the complex, real-time drama of an unfolding game can be enthralling. We never obsessed over the surrounding stories of trades, injuries, etc. but we could spend 8 hours or more on both Saturday and Sunday watching game after game.
After getting over this habit (for all the reasons discussed here – wokeism, negrophilia, absurd salaries for these dilettantes – I occasionally pondered over others’ ongoing obsession. What could possess otherwise reasonable people to be so completely enthralled by these diversions?
I think the answer is Tribalism.
Fans BELONG. Wearing a jersey gets smiles of recognition, high fives, shout-outs: “War Eagle!” “Packer Nation!” “Roll Tide!”
They won’t let us unite around our ACTUAL tribe, and force-feed us sportsball. Mighty poor substitute.
Good, honest article.
Sports are inherently healthy, both the playing and watching. It’s honest competition and usually taught with sportsmanship, which is a microcosm of a healthy capitalist society. It rewards talent and hard work, and reveals that genes and execution matter more than intent. It draws people with naturally healthy attitudes, unlike, say goth and theater-kid culture.
Sports naturally emphasize the best in boys in girls, differently. Men are drawn to team sports, and its hierarchical, cooperation-based nature. Girls, to solo sports, which encourage them to display their health and grace.
Watching sports signifies a respect and encouragement of healthy traits.
For sure, modern sports are a subversion of all this, but not completely. Free agency and NIL have made many sports more about the player and less about the team. Grown men buying and wearing jerseys of players, and the 24/7 obsession, are embarrassing. The liberal push to have girls play team sports instead of solo is not well aligned with human nature.
But it’s best not to throw the baby out with the bathwater. I think one can appreciate the healthy aspects of sports and still reject the unhealthy.
Of course, sports doesn’t appeal to everyone, including some that are competent and healthy, and that’s fine, too.
Travis, I can relate to a lot of what you said in this article. It’s a good essay. One of the reasons that I support this website is because I can relate to the authors on a variety of topics.
I had a similar experience in my youth. When people were watching the Superbowl I recall one year I was working on a lego I got for my birthday which was right before the Superbowl.
I enjoy watching squash but I also enjoy playing it. Back when I was playing, the games I would watch were at my athletic club. So there was this social aspect to it as well.
This past Superbowl was the first one I watched in a long time. I was in town with family. My brother-in-law, ever the douchebag, was upset that my sister was getting too into the game because she had money on the game while he was looking on his phone for new shoes.

You can correct me, but read that 43 of his wins were by knockout. I remember my father telling me that if Ali tried that rope-a-dope strategy with Rocky, Rocky would have broken his arms.
When I was in middle school and high school, not liking sports was considered gay for some reason. Everyone understood this. And, therefore, many guys just pretended to be interested in professional sports when asked, even when they couldn’t care less about them. My friends, who I guess could be called nerdy and who were more into computer games, would even pretend to really like watching sports when they were put on the spot and asked, even though they would rather be doing other things. You would pretend to care about things like the Super Bowl because people around you seemed to care. And because you didn’t want to seem gay.
And as a result guys have to pretend to be in awe of people like Lebron James and “Shaq.” Blech. I can’t stand how grown men go gaga over those people and applaud their every grunt and utterance.
Sport is an expression of human play and ingenuity. Professional sport as an entertainment industry, however, is just mindless consumerism. They play for the betting companies.
“For my dad, his interest in sports was all-consuming.”
That was my dad too. He’d watch games on TV, with the sound turned down, while listening to the commentary about the game from broadcasters on the radio. In real time he’d usually be reading the newspaper at the same time as well. For college & pro games that he could not watch live, he’d record them to watch in fast-forward so he could skip commercials & timeouts, & view at least 3 full games a day. My dad would take me to baseball games to keep score with pen & paper, of every ball & every strike. If the official game scorekeeper dropped dead, I was totally prepared to take over.
My dad never appeared to be making wagers on games, like his brothers did. His brothers would watch games live, 2-3 at the same time, in those picture(s) within a picture TV viewing options.*
I’ve spent enough time socializing with other spectators cheering for 1 billionaire’s athletes VS. another billionaire’s athletes during my youth. There’s no loyalty to hometowns, in any sport, except perhaps little league. All my sons are karate black-belts, not selling their souls to participate in diversity-glorifying sportsball.

The difference between 1995 and 2025 as I see it: our social media-driven people lack the courage to join a real-world organization like our National Alliance that fights for them unconditionally. I’m pleased to see this C-C discussion evolve from sports to the JQ.
When the popular Black radio station in Raleigh, my hometown, saw the National Alliance as the counterpart to Farrakhan’s NOI, that was promoting the big Million Man March, I was not going to pass up the challenge and opportunity to promote the relatively smaller NA as that counterpart. I did my homework and made the four-hour trip from Laurel Bloomery, TN, to Raleigh, but first urged NA member, Mr. Proctor, to call the station at the appointed hour, which he did.
Caller 1: This is Danny Proctor, Franklinville, North Carolina. You’re talking about the Million Man Black march in Washington, DC October 16th. I was wondering when the Black man and the White man are going to get together and understand that it’s not our problem — it’s a Jewish problem. Jews make up just two per cent. of the population of the United States, yet there are two on the Supreme Court and we’ve got 47 in the Clinton administration. And I am wondering — when are we going to get together and figure out the real problem? The real problem is not between the Black man and the White man. The real problem is the Jews. Now I understand that Mr. Farrakhan understands this fact. So I would like to hear your viewpoint on the Jewish problem in the United States of America.
[…]
Will Williams: A couple of callers back Mr. Proctor mentioned the Jewish aspect, and we kind of glazed over that. If people will write to my address, I will send them Who Rules America?, which is a tract exposing the Jewish control of our media — something Mr. Farrakhan is quite well aware of — like the recent acquisition by Time Warner of Ted Turner’s [CNN] network. Up ’til then, when we’d say there’s Jewish control of the media, they’d say “Well, are you telling us Ted Turner is Jewish?” We’d say “No, but Gerald Levin is Jewish — and so is Steve Ross, the man before him.” It’s always in Jewish hands, and we need to address that…
That prompt by Danny gave me the chance to mention “Who Rukes America?” that the Black radio audience could check out back then and Whites can still read today, here: Who Rules America 2010
Not only had Ted Turner been elbowed out of his share of Time-Warner by the Jews Ross and Levin, but since then other Jews, as is usual, had replaced those two. In “Who Rules America?” The facts of Jewish media control are provided, with remarkable detail that anyone can check out.
So why do so many so-called “WNs” today deny Jew control of mass media? Is it cowardice? “Fear of the smear”? I tend to hink so. How can people talk about the JQ without providing the A (Answer)? Here are incontrovertible details of just one of the major Jew media conglomerates:
Time Warner
Despite shake ups in its top level management
over the past five years, Time Warner, formerly known
as AOL-Time Warner, remains the fourth largest media
conglomerate in the world with an average annual
revenue approaching 47 billion dollars. Time Warner
runs major operations in film, television, Internet
services, book publishing, and telecommunications.
Warner was founded by the Jewish Warner Brothers in
the early part of the last century and rapidly became
part of the Jewish power base in Hollywood, a fact so
well-known that it is openly admitted by Jewish
authors.
Among its subsidiaries are CNN, HBO, Cartoon
Network, DC Comics, Warner Bros. Games,
Boomerang, Kid’s WB, New Line Cinema, Castle
Rock Entertainment, Time, Inc., CW Television
Network, AOL, Warner Bros. Entertainment, The
CW4Kids, Adult Swim, Hanna-Barbera, Ruby-Spears
Productions, and Telepictures (the producers of The
Ellen Degeneres Show and The Rosie O’Donnell
Sylivia Auten CEO of IPC and Time, Inc
executive vice president.
Show). Time Warner owns many of the best known
brands in media including the Harry Potter and Lord of
the Rings series as well as People magazine.
After several years of falling profits, Jewish
CEO Gerald Levin was replaced with Black CEO
Richard Parsons. Parsons, despite his reputation as a
skillful negotiator, was unable to boost Time Warner’s
standing particularly in the field of Internet services.
He was replaced in January 2009 by a Gentile of Dutch
descent, Jeffrey L. Bewkes. Bewkes, while at HBO,
was responsible for bringing shows such as Sex and the
City and Oz to millions of television viewers. Despite
being a Gentile, Bewkes has been a strong supporter of
Zionist interests. In 2001 he was awarded the Sherrill
C. Corwin Human Relations Award from the American
Jewish Committee and sits on the Board of Directors
of the heavily Jewish Council on Foreign Relations.
Bewkes heads a heavily Jewish board of directors
including Jessica Einhorn, former managing director of
the World Bank, Reuben Mark, and Ken Novack.
Board member Mathias Dopfner, the German CEO of
media giant Axel Springer AG, holds an honorary seat
on the American Jewish Committee and he describes
himself as a “non-Jewish Zionist.”
Time Warner’s subsidiaries also remain heavily
dominated by Jewish executives. DC Comics is headed
by Jewish president Paul Levitz. Warner Bros.
Entertainment is headed by Jewish CEO Barry M.
Meyer. His executive vice president Jeff Robinov is
also Jewish as is the president of Warner Bros.
Television Group, Bruce Rosenblum. Mr. Meyer has
direct oversight over New Line Cinema, which has
produced films such as Harold & Kumar Escape from
Guantanamo Bay and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre
series. New Line Cinema is run by a host of Jewish
executives including CEO Robert Shaye, chief
financial officer Stephen Abramson, Stephen Einhorn,
president of New Line Home Video, Jim Rosenthal,
president of New Line Television, Ben Zinkin, senior
executive vice-president of business and legal affairs,
and many others. The Jewish head of CNN’s U.S.
operations, Jonathan Klein was replaced in September
2010 with Ken Jautz. This paved the way for Jewish
executive Scot Safron to assume management of the
Headline News network.
Time Warner teamed with Jewish CEO of
4Kids Entertainment Alfred Kahn and CBS to produce
the CWKids Saturday morning cartoon block. This
block includes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Yu-Gi
Jewish executive vice president for CNN
Worldwide Scot Safron manages the
Headline News network.
Oh! and others. Kahn has been criticized for
popularizing increasingly violent children’s cartoons.
The Parents Television Council has commented that
children’s programming from Warner Bros. has “the
highest levels of offensive language, verbal abuse,
sexual content and offensive/excretory references.”
With its profits declining, executives at Time
Warner elected to spin off AOL into its own company
in 2009. Under the guidance of gentile CEO Tim
Armstrong, AOL, formerly the leading Internet service
provider in the U.S., will try to reclaim its share of the
Internet and multimedia market.
Time, Inc. is the largest magazine publisher in
the U.S. and one of the leading publishers in Europe.
Time controls several successful subsidiaries that
extend its reach into television, cable video on demand,
satellite radio, and mobile devices. Half of all
Americans read magazines owned by Time, Inc.,
including People, which is read by over 40 million
people monthly, and Sports Illustrated, Life, Time,
Fortune, and over one hundred others.
In 2005 Jewish editor-in-chief Norman
Pearlstine left Time, Inc. to become chief content
officer at another Jewish-owned news media company,
Bloomberg. He has since been replaced by John Huey.
Huey’s Jewish roots have not been confirmed. Time,
Inc. CEO Ann Moore appointed a Jewess, Sylvia
Auten, the chief executive of IPC Media, to the
position of executive vice president. Ms. Auton is the
daughter of Austrian Jews who emigrated from
Germany in 1938. IPC Media is the largest magazine
publisher in Great Britain. Its magazines are read by
more than two-thirds of England’s women and almost
half of its men.
In January 2007, Time-Magazine sold 18
magazines to the Jewish-owned Bonnier Magazine
Group including Outdoor Life, Popular Science, Field
& Stream, and Parenting Magazine. The Bonnier
Group, after its acquisition of MTV Finland, was
described by Finnish journalist Markko Juutinen as
“…a political, ideological and immensely secretive
organizational branch of the Zionist Bonnier family
dynasty, who are the same force of kindred spirits
which own and rule the mass media in North
America.”
Time, Inc. Interactive runs the companies Web
sites and related digital efforts. Ned Desmond, a
Gentile, heads this division. Former Time, Inc.
Interactive executives Jodi Kahn and Meg Siesfeld
both Jews, have left the company to pursue other
ventures. Kahn is now the Executive Vice President of
iVillage Networks, a media company owning a variety
of Web sites targeting young girls and women.
In 2004 Time Warner sold its music division,
Warner Music Group (WMG), to Jewish
multimillionaire Edgar Bronfman Jr. Bronfman’s
father is former president of the World Jewish
Congress, the world’s largest Jewish organization
which has spent millions of dollars worldwide to
criminalize “Holocaust denial.” Upon acquiring
WMG, Edgar Bronfman immediately hired fellow Jew
Lyor Cohen, the grandson of an Israeli army general,
as CEO of Warner Music Group. Cohen, the founder of
Murder, Inc. Records, is best known as a pioneer in the
promotion of “gansta-rap” and hip-hop music, a genre
of music whose graphic lyrics explicitly urge young
Black males to commit acts of violence against Whites,
police officers, and women. Under Cohen’s leadership
WMG has signed artists such as Jay Z, Marilyn
Manson, Seal, Kid Rock, Missy Elliott, Sean “P
Diddy” Combs, gangsta-rappers Boyz n da Hood, and
many others.
Bronfman has aggressively pushed for a greater
share of the Internet music market in the past few
years. Angered over the fact that users of YouTube,
Jewish executives Edgar Bronfman Jr. and
Lyor Cohen are two of the largest producers
and distributors of hip-hop and gangsta-rap music.
When uploading content featuring WMG music
without paying royalties, Bronfman required YouTube
to block or remove all WMG copyrighted content. In
late 2009 YouTube relented to Bronfman’s demands. In
exchange for allowing its music back on YouTube,
WMG will have the right to sell ads on user generated
content and create its own YouTube channel consisting
of “premium” content, a move that has further
alienated many of YouTubes regular users. Similarly,
Bronfman has complained that the new generation of
music video games like “Rock Band” are not paying
him enough for using WMG-owned music. “The
amount being paid to the music industry, even though
[these] games are entirely dependent on the content we
own and control, is far too small,” and he concluded
that, “we will not license those games.”
With three of the top four media
conglomerates in the hands of Jews (Disney,
Viacom, and News Corporation), and with Jews
filling a large proportion of the top executive jobs at
Time Warner, Jewish domination of the nation’s
most powerful media giants is nearly complete. With
such rampant Jewish hegemony, it is unlikely that
such an overwhelming degree of control came about
by mere chance. If there were not a cohesive group
strategy and ethnocentric drive among Jews to
promote each other and exclude non-Jews, then one
would expect their numbers in the media industry to
reflect those found in the general population. Instead
what we find is a near total monopoly of the major
media outlets in the United States.
