I never understood the concept of pre-game shows. Just show the damn game and get it over with, who wants to spend their lives watching that crap?

Never heard of it.

I watched these back in the 70’s when I was a kid.

They always had a woman. Phyllis George or Jayne Kennedy.

I forget the guys. Brent Musburger? Jimmy the Greek until he got fired.

It was what to do Sunday morning.

I watch the games — sometimes with the sound on.

My involvement with the NFL is limited to sending this letter to the editor every fall.

Kneeling for the National Anthem

As the NFL season begins, remember the NFL, ESPN, And Nike endorse kneeling when the anthem is played to disparage the country in support of social justice illusions. But veterans understand settling genuine grievances requires revering the essence of our country and trusting the liberties it represents.

The Star-Spangled Banner provides the majestic musical/visual symbol of the Constitution I swore to support and defend as a Navy officer. My indefinitely binding oath requires standing for the National Anthem and kneeling to pray for the country.

Veterans are aware that when armed forces members make the ultimate sacrifice they are wrapped in the Star-Spangled Banner in remembrance of liberty. When America’s fallen arrive at Dover Air Force Base from the Middle East their caskets are covered with a Star-Spangled Banner. When buried the flag is removed, elegantly folded, and given to a spouse, child, sibling, or parent.

Previously success was defined by marriage, raising kids, career, etc. Now a fashionable consensus defines success around one group adjusting behaviors to validate the emotional damage others have decided to inflict upon themselves for endless perceived slights. The instigators gain a prestige lacking dreams to pursue or accomplishment to celebrate. The subservient parties acquire costless moral superiority by holding themselves and the country in disgust.

I will always choose success through the hazards and uncertainties of personal freedom over sheltering within codependent relationships. This country needs “a new birth of freedom” to remain faithful to the Constitution as the embodiment of the American ideal.

Haven’t watched a pre-game show since CBS dumped Jimmy the Greek; and I haven’t watched an NFL game since the America Haters supported Kaepernick.

(But I was there when Summerall kicked the 49 field goal in the snow!)

I left the high school gossip and drama scene long ago. Just play the game already. Such nonsense, but I suppose it helps sell beer.

Since I do not watch the games, I do not watch the pre-game stuff.

You tube has The CBS NFL TODAY pre-game show from the mid 70s, if you want to see a real contrast between eras. It was made for adults. Today, the pregame shows are made for college bois and morons whose cultural frame of reference are rap music and video games.

I never pay attention to the talking heads and know-nothing reporterettes of sport reporting.. For the most part they have nothing to offer but idiot questions, platitudes and common knowledge, and a few stat tidbits that Google coughs up for them.

Even during the game, they get it wrong as often as not; and only exist to sell ads and fill air time that would otherwise be pretty silent. As you know, dead air on TV is death to marketers.

So no don’t bother to waste your time on pregame blather. And pay no mind to the washed up jockstraps offering “color” commentary. I about retched yesterday when I saw pathetic failure Brady Quinn standing there with his hands in his pockets like some kind of expert.

I do not watch any professional sports because the people who own those organizations hate people like me and use their money to get government to hurt people like me.
