Jason Whitlock is arguing that the National Football League has gone incredibly soft because the league made the mistake of caring about women and has “feminized” the rules of football as a result.
The former ESPN personality stated that fans watch football “because we enjoy seeing men flirting with danger while chasing a goal.”
Jason Whitlock: “A sport intended to groom young boys and men to compete in a meritocracy has bowed to the feminist worldview of diversity, inclusion, and equity. The NFL strives to be everything for everybody. The push for inclusion has caused the league to prioritize safety. ‘Safety’ is a women’s priority, men seek thrills and danger. We’re not sadistic, we’re just made differently by design.
Our love for danger leads to progress and advancement. Men called ‘roughnecks’ built skyscrapers in the 1920s. Women would have never built skyscrapers, they prioritize safety. The NFL’s preference to maximize safety and limit danger poses the greatest threat to America’s most popular sport. It’s a far more damaging initiative than the league’s promotion of ‘Black Lives Matter’ and anti-American sentiment. People watch football because we’re entertained by seeing men flirt with danger in pursuit of a goal.
Football is far less entertaining than it was 20 years ago before an onslaught of rule changes softened the game and demonized hard hits. The Tom Brady and Teddy Bridgewater plays were a direct result of the Tua Tagovailoa controversy two weeks ago. We all want football to be safe and when it’s not safe we want to blame somebody. The problem is the game wasn’t meant to be safe, it’s meant to be dangerous and entertaining. People are going to get hurt, it’s inevitable. It’s no different from boxing and mixed martial arts. It’s no different from working on a skyscraper in the 1920s.
The NFL won’t make this argument because the league wants to be all things to all people. It wants to avoid upsetting women and men who have been feminized to the point where they might as well be women. The NFL fears moms, women who won’t let their son play football because it’s too dangerous. They’re the same women who won’t let their kids go to school without wearing a mask. They’re women who want to remove all the risks from life. Women and beta males desire for all of us to sit in our homes playing video games, communicating over social media, watching 50-year-old Queen Latifah beat up men in the ‘Equalizer’ tv series, and waiting for our next booster shot.
They want us all to transition into women and their plan is working. I’ve watching football for 50 years. I turned off my TV when I saw Tua momentarily have his fingers paralyzed. I briefly lost my appetite for football and that has never happened before. It speaks to the football concussion propaganda. I’ll watch someone get knocked out in a ring or an Octagon and jump for joy, but we’ve been programmed to see violence in football as ‘savage’ and ‘gruesome.’ We all still allow ourselves to enjoy seeing fighters get put into concussion protocol, but it’s socially unacceptable to enjoy it on a football field.
We pretend that the grossly exaggerated CTE pandemic only affects football players. We’ve been feminized and programmed to prioritize our emotions and feelings over logic and fact. We no longer know when, how, and where we should feed and support man’s innate desire to take risks. We’ve been convinced that swiping left and right on Tinder is a better venue for risk-taking than a football field. More kids will be permanently and severely damaged in a hospital operating room under gender-affirming surgery than playing football. The very people trying to make the world safer are actually making it more dangerous. Football isn’t for women. Trying to make the game more palatable for women is a mistake.”
Over the past few days, we have seen two weak roughing penalties on defensive players that would’ve never been called in years past.

The first one came when Grady Jarrett sacked Tom Brady to get his team a shot to win the game. However, the refs threw a flag for roughing and the Bucs were basically handed the game. Referee Jerome Boger says that Grady Jarrett “unnecessarily” threw Tom Brady to the ground when he sacked him on third down.
To make matters worse, Chiefs’ Chris Jones not only sacked Derek Carr, but recovered a fumble that would all be negated for another terrible roughing penalty.
Referee Carl Cheffers attempted to defend his controversial decision when he said: “The quarterback is in the pocket and he’s in a passing posture,” Cheffers said. “He gets full protection of all the aspects of what we give the quarterback in a passing posture. So, when he was tackled, my ruling was the defender landed on him with full body weight. The quarterback is protected from being tackled with full body weight. My ruling was roughing the passer for that reason.”
