Da Cap'n 2099 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I've watched less because I'm just tired of the bullshit. Ridiculous false outrage over kneeling (but beating your wife and rape is cool). Owners actin' like slave owners (Jerry Fucking Jones). The CTE thing, though... it's weird. I've, admittingly (and embarrasingly), looked the other way on that for years (even after one of my favorite players, Junior Seau, killed himself). It does bother me and I need to get better (more informed) on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifter Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 So I'm guessing the "other reasons" cited in the poll would include a lot of "I just realized how exploitative the game is of it's players and fans." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifter Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 NFL Bans Kneeling During The National Anthem Anyone think this will bring people back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 New York Jets owner says he'll pay all the fines for any players on his team who decide to say fuck you to this new mandate. I fucking HATE the Jets, but a little less today. The NFL is really fucking up if they've gotten to the point of me admitting that. Might have to boycott this season.

Drifter Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 'You can't win this one': What President Trump told Jerry Jones in private about player protests After essentially being blacklisted, Kaepernick is ripping the NFL a new one with the evidentiary discovery phase of his lawsuit claiming illegal collusion (i.e. blacklisting) against him. Now we get to see another example that President Shithole is actively pressuring private employers into suppressing political rivals in all walks of life, certainly including sports... dictatorial tendencies indeed... can you imagine the shit-storm raised on the right-wing media if a Democrat ever pulled something even remotely similar to this? Here's your threat to America; here's your tyranny; here's your end to the republic. It's not some tax that provides health-care to the poor; it's not some action taken to keep corporations from poisoning children; it's this shit where the fucking president of the united states personally bullies private entities into stifling public displays of dissent by the citizenry.

Told ya Goodell was a dick. I’m just a tinge with Chris. Someone should just sign Kapernick, dammit. As always, Go Pats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
