UFC fighter Sean Strickland spoke out against the NFL and negative reactions to a speech by Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker at a Catholic college.
Butker delivered an anti-politically correct commencement address to hundreds of graduates at Benedictine College, calling out President Biden, diversity programs, and the role of men in society.
Strickland, who has never been shy about giving his unfiltered opinion, chimed in once again calling the NFL "spineless cowards" after a league representative distanced the NFL from Butker's comments.
"Harrison Butker gave a speech in his personal capacity," senior vice president and chief diversity and inclusion officer Jonathan Beane said. "His views are not those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which only makes our league stronger," the DEI chief added, according to USA Today.
'You can be against gay marriage. It's ok. You're not a bigot.'
Strickland wrote days later on X:
"When did the NFL become such spineless cowards? MAN + WOMAN = MARRIAGE[.] Nothing else," he continued.
"Text, history and tradition ... It's that simple 'It doesn't matter, who cares who can get married' Saying that makes you a weak man. They want you to say that ... Have beliefs," the middleweight wrote.

In another post 17 minutes later, Strickland clarified that he didn't have any hatred toward gay people.
"There is not one ounce of me who hates gay people. If you're gay be gay. Be happy. I wish you the best[.] But that doesn't mean I have to bend my knee on every social issue designed to destroy America and masculinity," he continued. "You can be against gay marriage. It's ok. You're not a bigot nfl."
An OnlyFans model responded to Strickland in support, saying, "[The] institution of marriage was predicated on having kids and two dudes can’t do that."
"This is a reasonable take, what we are against is teaching it to kindergarteners and life altering procedures/medication to under 18 year olds," the woman added.
Strickland replied with, "100 percent."

Strickland's most recent statements surrounded his displeasure with foreign flags consistently being flown in the United States.
"I'm so sick of seeing foreign flags in America.. I don't get it," Strickland wrote on X. "You left your corrupt country to come to the USA and yet you still rep what you fled? The worst is Hispanics born in America flying a Mexican flag.. Where is your loyalty.. Just go back.. Enjoy your foreign flag," he added.
This included the Israeli and Ukrainian flags being celebrated by U.S. politicians, as well.
As for Butker, he has received support from teammate and star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who said that Butker is a "good person" and is someone who "cares about the people around him" and "cares about his family."
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid also said that he didn't think Butker was "speaking ill to women."
"He has his opinions, and we all respect that. I let you guys in this room, and you have a lot of opinions that I don't like, so," Reid added.

Germany’s Decriminalization Of Child Porn Reminds Us Why We Need Societal Taboos
Some things are taboo because they’re wrong and perverted, and we should do all we can to discourage them.LGBTQ mafia comes for Christian bridal designer; sues for discrimination
In 2019, business was booming for Dominique Galbraith. Then, the New York bridal designer received a request for a wedding jumpsuit for a same-sex marriage.
Galbraith, who is a Christian, was faced with a decision.
“Do I take the money and just turn the blind eye to what I know is against my belief as a Christian,” she recalls as she tells her story to Allie Beth Stuckey. “I would knowingly be creating a garment for what is against my faith.”
Ultimately, Galbraith decided against creating the wedding jumpsuit.
“I shared with them why, I shared my faith, I also encouraged them to reconsider. Now, some may say like, ‘Girl, you didn’t have to go that far,’ but I’m a Christian, and I’m a minister of the gospel,” she explains.
“Good for you,” Stuckey says, impressed. “You were like, 'I’m not just going to say no, but I’m going to share the gospel because the word of God does not return void,' and you planted a seed.”
However, the lesbian couple didn’t see it the same way — hiring a law firm to go after her.
“They seemed to be the most angry that I shared the gospel, that I spoke the truth,” she tells Stuckey, noting that the couple never actually responded to the email but posted screenshots of her email explaining her decision to Facebook.
In the caption on Facebook, the couple pointed out that Galbraith was a woman of color.
“They seem to be even more shocked that a woman of color would have the stance that you do as a Christian, which is interesting that they decided to point that out,” Stuckey says.
“That’s the other thorn, that because I’m black, and because I’m a black woman, that I need to align with the LGBTQ. And I’m insulted by that, because the thought is that racism in America and what the LGBTQ has experienced in America are the same,” Galbraith says. “They’re not. It’s not a sin to be black.”
“It is a sin to be gay, period,” she adds.
In the end, Galbraith was forced to pay $25,000 for discrimination by refusing to make the garment, $20,000 for civil fines and penalties, and $5,000 in emotional distress and damages.
“To be very honest, no, I haven’t paid them. I am trying my very best. I feel like I’m swinging at a giant, but call me David,” she says with a laugh.
