What about players? Then the question is why doesn’t align with thr general population? Is it discrimination or something more naturally explained? Are there opportunities for these guys to be involved with the sport? All this stuff about jerseys is classic marketing and self patting on the back. What goes on behind the scenes is so much more telling.

You say actions speak louder than words. Would one of those actions be participating in inclusionary events?
