Halifax hooked a lot of fish with this troll. Well done.


(Has to be a troll because no real person would be bothered by someone doing an act of goodwill )


You must be new here lots of people are against good will if the good will is for the wrong reason

The rules allow the raffle winner to name someone else to take the kick. Earlier this year, the raffle winner felt he couldn't make it so he allowed a white male to kick for him. He was a soccer player and made it easy.

If the woman today did the same thing with a replacement soccer player, I'm sure OP and others would say DEI.

Do the rules say if you can't kick it you can have a former CFB quarterback throw it for you?

Let's call a spade a spade if a white dude was there instead of that women they wouldn't have done that, just another example of how western women live on easy mode.

That was charity, not DEI.
Jesus commands us to be charitable.
You've become so cynical that you can't even allow yourself to enjoy someone else's life changing event.

OP and others like him never get to call lefties "snowflake" again.



What about the several white kids this year who missed the kick and got nothing

So, you are inferring that his charitable act was due to her skin color?

I thought he did it because she was a chemical engineer. Those people are seriously under represented in the NFL.

Seriously, I'm happy for her.

The rules are bent/broken all the time by Pat to help kids (including white males) win the money so I say the rules are whatever Pat wants them to be that day. Usually he gives extra kicks as the official rules say one kick only. The rules also state winning it is worth $25k. I can't remember ever seeing Pat set that as the prize for the show.

I'm with you.

Yeah, pretty sure if it was a short white chemical engineer, he would have went home with the cash too.

For everyone else: Prove me wrong.

It takes a special kind of brainwashed useful idiot to politically defend government fraud, waste, and abuse.
Wildmen03
How long do you want to ignore this user?
That's my point. Your earlier example is of someone following the rules. Today's kicker didn't bring her own sub.

If the rules are always broken, then bringing up a rule is a moot point.

Maybe there are no real rules and Pat just does how the spirit moves him.

The fat white kid from OU was ridiculed on the lead up to him kicking. Kirk and Pat were just teasing the hell out of him and then he nailed it.

They just wouldn't have done that to a black girl. She could also select someone to kick for her if she wanted.

I think they wouldn't have done it to any girl

Herbstreit had to throw a ball through the uprights to give $300k to a young black female chemical engineering student at Bama because she "had never kicked a ball in her life".

First, she wanted to do a standing kick with no run up. Then with a run up, the ball never gets more than 3 feet off the ground and went about 3 yards.

So they completely changed the game and had Herbstreit throw the ball through the uprights for her and still gave her $300K.

Charlie Kirk is smiling really big right now...the case in point of DEI.

Who said the anti-woke can't manufacture outrage as well as the woke?
If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

Isn't that sort of par for the course with some groups of people? Give them a task they cannot complete with their own skill set and give them a reward of something they did not earn?

Is it bc she's black or bc she was really fat and had no chance to make it anyways?


The playoff committee will find a way to get her into the playoffs anyway.

My tailgate and grill loaded with goodness made it on the broadcast so I am going to say ESPN has exceedingly great taste when it comes to picking tailgates and grills full of meat to film.

So in the past, participants who did attempt on their on own, and miss, do they get a mulligan and get a chance to pick their stand in?

If they are going to this….then put a military vet who had his legs blown off who can chose a stand in.

If you are going to change the rules…..then just do what you really want and that is a kid who can't meet the requirement and just give the $300k on tv and look fulfilled.

I didn't see it as DEI, but could have been a life changing moment for her worth more than the money

......I just missed out on $300,000 because I'm a disgusting fatbody. I think I'll join a gym tomorrow, start eating better, and become the person I really want to be

Yes. They've both given kids second chances and allowed for stand ins. Of course they could just give the money away, but the point is to make it entertaining.

This is making something about nothing. Frankly, this is this is counter productive if you really wanted DEI / race stuff to calm down. They change rules on that segment seemingly every week and mcafee has gotten boned a number of times by people gaming the system.

I actually viewed it with a positive lens and mcafees thinking "well damn. Finally someone won the raffle that's not trying to game this and a closer fit to why I started this segment to begin with" whether she's black or not btw.

If you're gonna decide to ***** about this at all you could say that she should have used whatever rule they have to use a fill in as they mentioned the other 2 girls that have won the raffle did so. And since she didn't she shouldn't have gotten the freebie. I could understand that.

But no. Mcafee didn't get some producer in his ear piece saying to go easy on the fat black non athlete for optics or any other reason. Good lord. Nuke this thread and the whole discussion is counter productive.

So, the chemical engineer would be short due to reduction?

Pat McAfee is a self-hating DEI pushing libtard and he should be CANCELLED! Most people wont do this but Copy and past to your Facebook if you agree with President Trump.
