I like the comment:

Pro sports are currently all an illusion that makes little more sense for fans to get excited than to be excited if Apple has a record quarter – while having NO financial interest in Apple stock.

I think is was Gordon H. Clark who said, “Sports are the lowest form of human achievement but they’re fun to watch...”

This is so true. What can man really achieve in athletics? The “world’s fastest human” approaches 30MPH but a cheetah runs 65, a horse 45. For swimming, it’ worse. The fastest freestyler is something like 5.2MPH but a dolphin swims 35 mph.

“Superstar” is a joke when it is applied to athletics. Grown men make fortunes in MLB for PLAYING A KID’S GAME.

I would like to see the NFL completely implode.....of course, my favorite team is the Cleveland Browns...and they stink ...thought I should disclose that :-)

I too would like to see the NFL along with Obama TV disappear. The NFL are scum who attacked and smeared Rush and made sure he could not buy a team.

The owners screw taxpayers to build their stadiums by engaging in extortion to move the team.

The players by an large are show boats, thugs, steroid freaks and felons. A few have real talent like Tom Brady but most of it is assault and battery. The NFL also loves hussein.

Team sports are a form a civic pride. A great team can capture a city’s imagination.
