NCAA "Label Me" commercial

What's on your mind?

by fasterpitch92701 » Sun Jun 03, 2018 11:14 am

Am I the only one or is this commercial nothing more that foul? It appears to promote hate, label anyone who is not a minority as a racist and promote attitude and anger. Is this what the NCAA has come to, a promote-hate organization?

I find it pathetic.

Hate that commercial too. Don't understand the reasoning behind it at all.

Imo, do not see it labeling anyone who's not a minority a racist. because all races even those not a minority seem to be depicted in the people.
that being said it doesn't really have a good vibe....
:) apparently it does promote hate because you hate the commercial!
for me not getting a hate vibe. definitely could have used a positive message instead of
empowerment pushes back
on a student athlete platform.

Yeah I really don't get it either. It's rather ironic. The "label me" commercial is labeling anyone watching as a hatemonger that's labeling them. I guess everyone gets labeled.

...I think its more of a rhetorical type thing...as in "label me...I dare you"...

I also hate their stupid "genders don't play sports, athletes do" commercial.

If genders didn't play sports then why are their gender specific sports/programs and title ix?
