The NAACP is urging athletes not to sign with any sports teams from Texas, due to the recent actions of the government in that state regarding abortion, mask mandates, and voting rights.
This is interesting. There have been, in the past, proposed boycotts of sports franchises over the actions or statements of an owner. There have been boycotts of a state as a sports venue over a political decision. But I don’t recall urging athletes not to sign with teams from a certain state. Is this a good thing? And will it be successful?
