Mike030270 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 Looks ugly IMO I actually like the rainbow Eagle logo they switch to during June but don't like that mural at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochis_Calhoun Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 It's not the best mural I've ever seen but I've no issue with it and I support the message behind it. Who other consenting adults choose to love is none of my business and unless they're a member of my family it doesn't affect my life at all, I cannot fathom getting angry about it or symbols that try to promote understanding of it. Similarly if the NFL decided it was no longer going to have all the awareness weeks and salute to service nonsense, I'd be just as happy with that because painting a mural on club walls is all very well, but the fact remains that the only SEC defensive player of the year in the history of the award to never play a regular season snap in the NFL is Michael Sam, and that just about sums up how much all this stuff means beyond corporate PR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny to me to see the comments on Facebook when the companies and all change their profile picture and all to some rainbow flag. It's like clockwork for them yet they keep following the page It's especially funny when the gaming studios do it because the main character in their biggest games are gay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toolg Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 It's cool. I like how she incorporated Sirianni's flower speech, and the "Go Birds" in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brkmsn Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Is this where we're all supposed to stand up, clap and feign elation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggs Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I am really impressed with the quality of the posts on this thread. It also seems like the EMB has had less name calling and vindictive posts in the last couple years - are we maturing or are we just happy because our team is so good?

Sack that QB Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I'm sure people will be pretty accepting of it. Spoiler Just don't sponsor it with Bud Light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diehardfan Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Virtual signaling. We'll paint stuff on the wall but kick you out of the league if you come out. I don't care how people live their lives but stop with with the this and that for one movement or another. Just focus on football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumor has it that players walked out of mini-camp early to watch it being painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The important thing is the league was able to virtue signal their support on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard a celebrity was feeling a little frisky and unloaded his ar-15 into a case of eagles branded beer cans. If people don't post videos of their displeasure and threaten boycotts against these woke companies, then clear injustices like this mural will simply continue to happen and eventually be normalized and we certainly can't have that.
