“It’s Pure Wokeness and Satanic” (Page 4 ) | October 14, 2024

“I support the Steelers 100%,” tweeted @IronCityTough78, whose bio proudly proclaims, “God, guns, and gridiron.” “Football has always been about grit, not glitter. Keep your woke agenda out of my Sundays.”

But not everyone is on board. “Woke and satanic? What are they even talking about?” asked @SteelersFanSinceBirth69. “How does supporting LGBTQ+ fans make a football team ‘satanic’? Did I miss the part where rainbows are a gateway to hell?”

Perhaps the most unexpected voice to emerge from the chaos was none other than the Church of Satan itself, which tweeted: “We can confirm that we had nothing to do with Pride Nights. However, we do support glitter.” So at least someone has a sense of humor about the whole thing.

As with any bold and polarizing decision, the players find themselves caught between the organization’s stance and their own personal beliefs. Some players, when asked for comment, seemed hesitant to dive into the controversy.

“Look, I just want to play football,” said Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt when approached by reporters after practice. “I don’t really get involved in the politics of it all. If Coach Tomlin says we’re boycotting something, I’m going to focus on the game plan.”
