Postcards from the Empire

The 2025 NFL Draft was another exercise in DEI extremism

Death, taxes, and the National Football League discriminating against White men are three things that can always be counted on.

And the just completed annual three-day extravaganza known as the NFL Draft was no exception again this year. The number of White players drafted was unofficially 53 out of 257, or 20.6%. See, the NFL likes their DEI program to be simple and consistent. Twenty percent is the magic number every year, give or take a couple of percentage points.

And that 20.6% doesn’t tell the full story. Only 15 Whites were drafted in the all-important first three rounds, a little over 14%, with the others mostly back-ended into the last two rounds, where a player’s chances of getting to stick on an NFL roster and actually play are dicey at best.

The annual draft begins each year with Commissioner Roger Goodell greatly exaggerating the number of attendees at the event, which the league’s corporate media partners, far-left networks ESPN, ABC, and NFL Network, faithfully echo and then gradually embellish even more during the three days of draft selections.

Goodell claimed 200,000 people were in the audience on Thursday night for the first round, an obvious lie. Right next to the draft venue was Lambeau Field, the stadium for the host city Green Bay and its Packers. Lambeau Field holds 80,000 people. 200,000 people would fill Lambeau Field two and a half times over, yet it was clear that the much smaller draft venue had about 15,000 attendees at most, enough to fill a medium-sized hockey or basketball arena but nowhere remotely close to filling Lambeau even once.

The claimed numbers got even more ridiculous over the next two days. By Saturday, Rece Davis of ABC had raised the number to 400,000. Yahoo took the crown for absurdity however, citing 600,000. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/2025-nfl-draft-attendance-tops-013118672.html

"Green Bay has roughly 5,000 hotel rooms, with half being reserved for NFL personnel and vendors. Roughly 1,000 homes have been rented in Brown County.”

Green Bay itself only has a population of just over 100,000. Some of them obviously attended, though parking was a problem. With such limited hotel space and parking, what did the hundreds of thousands of other alleged attendees that supposedly traveled from all over the country do? Sleep in the street? Set up makeshift tent cities? If they lie about something as basic as this – and they do every year, claiming 750,000 attended last year in Detroit -- what won't they lie about? Answer: very little, especially when it comes to sports and the Caste System.

Above: Lambeau Field, capacity 80,000. Below: the modestly sized venue in which the NFL claims 200,000 people were present; in reality it would have filled about 1/5 of Lambeau Field at most.

The NFL’s DEI agenda is built on lies and exaggerations, the main one being that Blacks are the world’s best athletes, to the extent that Whites are incapable of playing other than at a few positions, namely quarterback, the offensive line, and tight end.

And Whites are systematically being replaced at quarterback and the o-line as well. It’s curious that the first offensive tackle and first defensive tackle taken in the 2025 NFL Draft were White, but then were followed at those positions by dozens of Blacks.

The few Whites taken early in the draft are outliers, exceptional athletes who are so good that the league takes them as part of the tiny White contingent on team rosters, but after that it’s one average or mediocre Black after another selected. Yes, there are some with star potential who live up to it also, but the number of Blacks taken in the early rounds who don’t live up to the hype each year is remarkable.

There were more defensive tackles taken than at any other position. Yet many teams only start one tackle on defense. Given that there are 32 teams, this means that the turnover at defensive tackle every year is quite large, a damning indictment of the Blacks only policy of the league, but of course it’s never mentioned by the media, which has always enabled and fully supported the racial Caste System in sports.

It's the same at cornerback and safety – huge numbers taken every year, almost none of whom will make much of an impact and will be replaced by other mediocre talents the next year and the next year. No White cornerbacks were drafted and only two White safeties were drafted, both in the final round, which means they face very stiff odds of ever starting.

It's curious too that after going some 20 years without any White cornerbacks, one was drafted in 2023 (Riley Moss) and 2024 (Cooper DeJean), and both became instant stars. Both played at Iowa, the only big college football program in the country that “allows” Whites to play at cornerback. And even though Moss and DeJean are both off to great starts in the NFL, White high school stars at cornerback will continue to not be recruited by the major programs. Same with running back after Christian McCaffrey became a superstar. The few Whites who break through change nothing as football at the college and professional levels is a classic racial spoils program for Blacks.

As Clay Travis of the website Outkick said, "The NFL, a majority black employee league, has created more black millionaires than any business in the history of the world. Arguing the league is racist, as many sports media did this weekend, is the dumbest argument in 21st-century sports history.”

Yet this didn’t stop the usual whining and cries of “racism” against Blacks, because quarterback Shedeur Sanders, son of Hall of Fame cornerback Deion Sanders, wasn’t drafted in the first round as many expected. It didn’t matter that the first quarterback taken, Cam Ward, is Black. In fact, Black quarterbacks are now routinely taken before any Whites ones each year. It was White quarterbacks who were actually screwed over, as they are every year and at every position. As poster Leonardfan from the website Caste Football.us wrote:

“The NFL is DEI. It is not a meritocracy. Every draft for the past 25 years has hovered right around 20% White athletes drafted with little deviation. The glass ceiling White athletes face is a very real thing. The open discrimination that Whites have to endure in both college recruiting and NFL draft processes is not some imagined conspiracy theory. I have followed the draft closely since 2004 and after 20 years the patterns are obvious. I have seen countless White athletes get screwed over and never get a chance at the NFL. The number of White kids coming out of high school every year that get ignored is probably 10 times as bad as the NFL draft.

“Year after year there are a ridiculous number of black players drafted at defensive back, wide receiver, running back, linebacker, defensive line, offensive tackle. And the next year the same cycle repeats itself. Meanwhile White athletes are written off because of their 40 time while the NFL Draft process makes no effort to take into account much of the other athletic testing -- vertical jump, 3 cone, bench press, short shuttle, broad jump, all of which Whites test just as well at as Blacks on average. If the player is Black and fast it's a meal ticket to the NFL. Meanwhile the White athlete that has a much more complete athletic workout and profile but is a tenth of a second slower running in a straight line in shorts for 40 yards is written off.

“The newest trend being pushed is arm length. It's the next big lie behind 40 times to try and push White offensive linemen away from the tackle position. There have been several instances of this I can point to over the past few years -- Pete Skoronski, Graham Barton, Grey Zabel, Jonah Monheim all played left tackle in college at a high level but their arms were deemed too short so they get moved to the interior. That is just a small sample off the top of my head. Will Campbell faced the same scrutiny this year about the issues with his arm length despite the fact he was the best blindside protector in the supposed best conference in college football.

“The cries of racism and collusion against Black quarterback prospect Shedeur Sanders were beyond asinine. These cries were mostly coming from the same group of people who for the past few weeks have been donating to Karmelo Anthony's gofundme, defending his murder of an innocent White teenager and reveling in the grief of Austin Metcalf's mother and brother (Metcalf's father is another story, a truly pathetic man). Many of these complaints I noted on social media were not people that followed football but just typical angry black people with the well-established black victimhood mentality. It's all so tiring.

“The real collusion in this draft was against White quarterbacks: Kyle McCord not being drafted until the 6th round. McCord was demonized and pushed out of Columbus by the Ohio State fan base despite going 11-1. He goes to Syracuse and leads them to a 10-3 record. He did more for Syracuse than Sanders did for Colorado. Also led the nation in passing and was a better QB than Cam Ward who was gifted the number one pick due to skin color.

“Will Howard transfers to OSU and has a stellar season running Chip Kelly's offense. He wins a national championship. At KSU he was pushed aside much like McCord so he goes and wins a national championship.

“Riley Leonard takes Notre Dame to the national championship game. A true dual threat that was a better passer than he was allowed to be at ND due to play calling.

“Quinn Ewers might be the biggest outrage out of them all considering he won 27 games in the SEC. Won big games in the SEC and guided Texas to back to back playoff appearances.

“The militant racist blacks and their white hanger-ons crying about Sanders won't be able to deny those facts and will just ignore them. Fact is Sanders thought he was better than he is. He refused to take part in the Shrine Bowl practices or game, the Combine or the Big 12 pro day. He really thought he was that good. His arrogant father fed him and hyped him up all these years. Blacks are saying that Sanders did not ‘code switch’ to appeal to the ‘White’ owners. You can't make this stuff up. Millions of black people in this country think like that.”

And so do tens of millions of White football fans, who have been indoctrinated since birth with the glorification of Black athletes and the negative stereotyping of White ones.

Sadly, pointing out the racism against Whites in sports results in being accused by the usual suspects of being racist against Blacks! That’s how it always works in the Empire of Lies, double standards and hypocrisy galore. The Empire’s overseers, change agents and gatekeepers have no interest in having a “meritocracy” in sports; as always it’s about an agenda of replacing Whites and doing so by waging psychological warfare against them in numerous ways.

Claiming Whites are inferior physically and athletically to Blacks is a Big Lie and more Americans need to understand that DEI and general anti-Whiteness in all spheres of society includes sports and has for over half a century. It’s about fairness and equal opportunity. I reject White supremacy and discrimination against Blacks, but I also reject anti-White hatred and denigration. Fair-minded people need to be able to discuss racial issues openly and honestly, and when we can’t it’s just more evidence that this is no longer a free country.
