With the Super Bowl coming to television screens across America next weekend, fans all over the Alabama will be tuning into the NFL despite college football generally being the more popular sport by far in this part of the country.
The league has found itself in hot water for woke stunts many times in recent years, and U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) has always made it clear that he and his constituents are sick of it.
As the league trended on social media this week following the exclusion of legendary New England Patriots former head coach Bill Belichick from the Hall of Fame as a first ballot entry, Tuberville ripped everything wrong with professional football during an appearance on “The Scott Jennings Show.”
“It’s a disgrace. The people that are on that committee that did not vote for him should step down immediately because they have no business being on there,” Tuberville said on Belichick before going into the Super Bowl and the controversial halftime show featuring Puerto Rican rapper “Bad Bunny”, along with all the other issues plaguing the league.
“The NFL is in a tailspin, they have been in a tailspin [since] Colin Kaepernick took a knee and all this woke nonsense. I don’t call this the Super Bowl with this rabbit or bunny guy or whatever he is at halftime. I call it the woke bowl. It’s all about money and getting out there not representing our country, but representing themselves and showing how great they are. It’s sad how we’ve let team sports get to this point,” Tuberville said.
The game will be played next Sunday, February 8 from Santa Clara, CA at Levi’s Stadium — home of the San Francisco 49ers — between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks.
