Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker bashes Pride Month, tells women to stay in the kitchen

Seems like someone deleted this after it got posted, so let’s call out this piece of shit. Apologies if repost.

“I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolic lies told to you. Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world…”

Just shut up and kick the ball dumbass.

This dumb fucker’s only skill is kicking a football

some_guy OP ,

Which makes him an expert on sociological domestic issues, obviously.

glimse ,

It’s not true for every player, of course, but I’m inclined to think he got into Georgia Tech through football recruitment, not academic qualifications.

harrys_balzac ,

Surely not Georgia Tech, a world leading institution in the study of…, …, ummm…, tech-ish things?

glimse ,

Its not a bad school, my cousin went there and he’s a very successful engineer. But he didn’t go there for sports

wjrii ,

Taken as a whole (i.e. not just the undergraduate football players getting Bachelors in the management program that is kept around partially so they will have something to study), it’s a world class research institution, currently ranked 36 in the Times Higher Education table of world universities. For reference, it’s ahead of schools like the London School of Economics, McGill, and the Sorbonne.

But this guy is an idiot and an ass.

You say that now, but imagine they got rid of the doping rule. Then it would be “this dumb fucker’s only skill is kicking a football… two miles into the air.”

I’m just saying, sports would be a lot more fun if everyone was an inhuman muscle monster.

A complete idiot representing the group of people most diabolically lied to telling a group the former group hates most that they’re the most diabolically lied to is peak Nationalist Christian, and just as putrid.

Adide from the WTF factor, imagine being the most easily replaceable member of the team and saying literally anything divisive at all. Like bruh you ain’t the QB, you can be gone end of the season and thats it, no one gonna look twice at you. You’re a step above the guy in the mascot suit.

NFL kicker has to be a really weirdly rough job. You don’t really do much work during the game and have far less risk of violent physical contact, but you have to practice your ass off outside the game because the kicking game has little margin for error. Your role is absolutely critical and can easily decide the outcome of almost every game, but nobody respects you and almost nobody knows your name unless you fuck up real bad. I used to be a huge NFL nerd but can only name three kickers: Pat McAfee because he’s a TV personality now, Sebastion Janikowski because of his name and how rotund he was, and Ray Finkle who isn’t even a real person just a movie kicker. I can’t even remember the name of the Hall of Fame kicker for the Pats and Colts who won many Super Bowls.

And yeah, nobody will give a shit if this shitstain goes away. Will the NFL, well-known for their respect for human rights and progressive views, actually do anything about it, though?

FigMcLargeHuge ,

Goddamnit, I almost blew water out of my nose when I got to Ray Finkle.

dogslayeggs ,

Thank you, that was bugging me… just not enough to actually search it myself.

MagicShel ,

Eddie Murray was the top point scorer for the Lions for the entirety of the 80’s. Growing up in Michigan during that decade, he and Barry Sanders (90’s) are the only Lions I can remember.

Maybe that’s just a really specific circumstance of a great kicker on a shit team, but I think he was pretty respected.

Olhonestjim , (edited )

Wow, I only knew Ray Finkle and had never had any idea whether he was fictional.

AngryishHumanoid ,

The kicker is normally the highest scoring player on the team, they really are weirdly underappreciated.

son_named_bort ,

Pat McAfee was a punter, but yeah a kicker is like being a ref: if you know their name it usually means they did bad.

secundnature ,

I believe they prefer to go by Lois Einhorn now.

Hey. The guy in the mascot suit actually works for his check. This fuckstick is lower on the roster than the towel boy, and seems even less intelligent than the orange water cooler.

vaultdweller013 ,

The orange water coolers are semi-sapient so thst checks out.

No, just approaching near human intellect. Dont piss them off.

no reason to put down kickers because of butker. its probably the most mentally tough job in the league

blair walsh went from all star record breaking kicker to not even in the league anymore all because of 1 single missed kick

Tujio ,

Then the Seahawks had to sign him under the official NFL ‘you break it, you bought it’ clause.

@BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee avatar

i still remember walsh taunting zimmer after making a kick in the preseason 😂

mhague ,

Oh, your god said we should do that? But my god is a super god times infinity and he says the opposite.

Just goes to show you that for every kid that is mature for their age, there’s 100s of adults that never left the playground.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, let’s not overreact here. There are only a few cases where wishing that upon a person is acceptable, and I’m not sure this qualifies as a war crime.

The worst part is that he was saying this to a bunch of women who just graduated with degrees. He’s basically telling them all to give up after putting in 4+ years of work. This guy is a total shit bag.

RaoulDook ,

It’s a football meathead speaking his dumb meathead thoughts, just garbage to toss out basically. Sad that his dumb thoughts were published though. Outrage journalism has lowered the bar for society pretty significantly.

FigMcLargeHuge ,

“If it were not for football, I would not be playing football today…” - H. Butker

Clent ,

Blaming journalism for reporting what this guy said at a graduation ceremony is fucking hilarious and tone deaf.

“If people wanted you to write warmly about them , they should’ve behaved better”

Being a meathead isn’t an excuse; behave better. That includes people who make excuses for people who behave poorly.

RaoulDook ,

2 things can be wrong at once you know. Nothing I said is an excuse for the meatheads dumb and wrong words. You misunderstood what I said.

It is also bad that his dumb words were published and shared.

And accruing financial debt. But you can make that go away by baking cookies for your family and preparing a nice dinner for your husband.

It’ll all be good after you marry a high performing NFL kicker and don’t need two incomes.

Westwolf ,

A bunch of conservative Catholic women who gave him a standing ovation. Because, you know, you’re completely misrepresenting what he said and don’t actually understand that not everyone in this country agrees with your worldview.

Also, you people are literally incapable of reading with basic comprehension. There is literally no way to read his comments and arrive at the conclusion that he was telling anyone to “give up” on a career.

logicbomb ,

Our obsession with what celebrities think can really cause problems. There’s really no reason to care what a guy like Butker thinks about social issues, other than maybe to feel sorry for his wife.

Millionaires and billionaires … our modern day logic is to think and believe that someone who owns or has access to enormous sums of money automatically gives them the title of “genius”.

I suppose humanity has always been like that.

We called them Kings, Queens, Lords, Emperors in the past … we changed the titles but the blind praise is still the same.

eramseth ,

While I agree with your sentiment… millionaires and billionaires should not be lumped together. This conflation is actually a super useful tool for the billionaires (and mega millionaires) to use when convincing the middle and lower economic classes to vote in their favor.

Realistically, millionaire today basically just means homeowner. As ridiculous as it sounds, a million dollars is not an “enormous” sum of money in today’s world.

Billionaire is something different entirely.

Better to say “super wealthy” or something like that.

slurpinderpin ,

This guy grew up around me. Truly a bible thumping idiot. And a catholic to boot. How they can honestly believe they have a moral leg to stand on while supporting that church is ironic to the peak. Get fucked Butker

xtr0n ,

I’m so confused by the super fundie catholics. I grew up in New England and was raised Catholic, even went to Catholic school for a bit, and never got any of that “barefoot and pregnant” in teachings or sermons. The church always had awful stances on abortion, birth control, divorce and homosexuality but pretty much everyone just glossed over or ignored it. And there really wasn’t anyone pushing that shit. Like you never heard anti gay or any abortion stuff in church or in school. I wonder if the church adapts to the local region? Like how McDonalds sells wine in France? Or maybe the American dioceses all got infiltrated by super right wing priests?

slurpinderpin ,

It might be regional. Seems like the catholics in the south ignore the whole child rape thing too. I have family who married into that religion unfortunately and their spouse was actually surprised when I brought it up, like he’d never heard about it before I mentioned it

xtr0n ,

Yeah. Back east folks are hyper aware of the child rape fuckery and are salty AF about it.

Westwolf ,

The Catholic bishops in the Northeast have all been cowed by bullying liberals into downplaying and ignoring Church teachings in order to be more appealing. This is why it’s lost so many Catholics, such as yourself, to the world. You have no understanding of actual Catholic teaching, and have embraced the godless degeneracy of the modern world. This is not your fault, it’s the Church’s fault.

xtr0n ,

Is that why that priest in Wisconsin was calling for the Pope’s death? Is the Pope cowed by NE US liberals and ignorant of actual Catholic teachings?

Would one need to follow the Texas bishop who got removed, in order to get actual Catholic teachings?

When you presume that I have “no understanding of actual Catholic teachings”, is that solely based on my ignorance of the conservative and fundamentalist US parishes?

It’s too bad you chose to comment on my beliefs in such a condescending manner. We could have had an interesting conversation if you were more civil.

Westwolf ,

You progressives are forcing an ideology onto children that was literally developed by a pedophile to justify pedophilia. Queer theory, which underlies the entire gender ideology that you have confused with “morality,” was developed by Michel Foucault as a means of challenging the norms around pederasty, because he wanted to have sex with young boys.

How do you think you have a moral leg to stand on? You people don’t even believe in morality! You literally think morality is just a subjective social construction that has no objective basis.

Hobbes_Dent ,

Continuing from OP…

“I can tell you that my beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother. I’m on this stage today, able to be the man that I am, because I have a wife who leans into her vocation.

“I’m beyond blessed with the many talents God has given me, but it cannot be overstated that all my success is made possible because a girl I met in band class back in middle school would convert to the faith, become my wife, and embrace one of the most important titles of all. Homemaker.”

frickineh ,

The many talents god gave him apparently don’t include shoving his unsolicited opinions right up his Butker, unfortunately.

Montagge ,

The cherry on the shit cake is he was blubbering during this part. Definitely a stable individual.

RBWells ,

Fine, but you can’t extrapolate from one woman to all of womankind. Does he think every man should play professional football?

Westwolf ,

He’s not the one extrapolating from one woman to all of womankind, you are. He never once said that all women should become homemakers. You are taking his praise of his wife, which was meant to communicate to the audience that if you abandon your career for a family as his wife did, then you will probably be happy like his wife was. You people are so rabidly misogynistic and anti-family that you can’t even comprehend what he said when you have the speech laid out in front of you. It’s truly amazing how bad at reading comprehension you all are.
