Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy tried to woke down his twitter stream for the NFL draft, but he just couldn’t contain his sports excitement, which confused just about everyone:
I’m glued to the NFL draft like most other sports fans, but it just reminds me how immoral the football syndicate is.
College football trains players for the pros, pays the trainees nothing, and forces them to endure 3 years of head trauma before getting a single paycheck.

Yes, immoral. So terrible. Those poor people. Systemic racism and institutional discrimination. Let us all self-flagellate for wokeness, yea yea.
Hard not to notice all the shots of filthy rich, almost exclusively white coaches, GMs, and team presidents, drafting almost exclusively African-American players who have been forced to work for free for 3 years in order to get a shot to be chosen.

Yes yes, preach, the misery, we’re so guilty! For our filthy woke sins, we give this twitter penance, verily verily. Wait wait..
Giants take a Husky in the third round! Nice!
Congrats to Matt Peart, a big part of last year’s fantastic UConn O-Line, and welcome to #GiantsNation. #NFLDraft2020 #UConnFootball

NICE! BOOM!! Murphy elbow drops his couch after doing 3 shots of tequila to celebrate!! Also, injustice, yes, racism, institutional discimina-GO NEW JERSEY GIANTS!!
Some suspect that he scheduled the woke tweets and forgot that he was supposed to be in woke-penance, but I prefer to think that his social justice schizophrenia is a kind of self-inflicted mental illness.
