I have always been a much larger fan of football than baseball. I do like MLB and have been to a few Big League (bigly? lol) games.

For some reason I’m good with this, and I can understand this.

Do the baseball players wear pink shoes in October?

EFF THE NFL

The World Series is far more interesting than your average Super Bowl.

[Alberta's Child]

Baseball is a very regional sport. It doesn't have the same national appeal that the NFL does. You'll get good ratings in local markets when local teams do well, but that doesn't always translate to national ratings. Fans simply don't watch a World Series game between two teams from other cities to the same degree that they watch the Super Bowl (regardless of who is playing).

This year is a little different because you have a great storyline: two old franchises playing against each other, one of which hasn't won a World Series since 1948 and the other one since 1908.

I don't think comparisons to last year's ratings are all that relevant, either. The Mets are a big-market team but they don't have nearly as many fans as the Yankees, and Kansas City is one of the smaller big-league sports markets in the U.S.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for MLB to expand their fan base manyfold if you do the right thing and go 100% pro-American, and 0% politically correct.

No pink October, no race-baiting,...just baseball.

Do that and I guarantee you the money will be flowing into your coffers like never before. And people will start to say “NFL? What’s that?”.

Kaepernick social media posts laud Black Lives Matter, Black Panthers, since dating activist DJ

“'History!' Kaepernick wrote on Instagram Oct. 15 [2015], when he marked 50 years since the Black Panther Party was founded.

Kaepernick has posted 170 photos or videos on his Instagram account in the four years since he created it. Most of his first 128 posts were pics of him in football gear, publicity photos or shots taken with friends.

But 31 of his last 42 posts have strong social justice connotations, often featuring quotes from radical Nation of Islam leader Malcolm X, Black Panthers founder Huey Newton and cop killer Assata Shakur. [aka, JoAnne Chesimard]

During a Sunday news conference about the flag flap, Kaepernick dressed in a black hat with a large, white “X” and a T-shirt that featured photos of Cuban despot Fidel Castro and Malcolm X.”

[1960s/original] Black Panther Party [BPP] Archives
From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

College football is on Thursday night sometimes with two games, Friday night usually with two game and then all day Saturday. Sometimes there is a Wednesday game.

ESPN, ESPN 2, ESPN U, ABC, CBS, the SEC Network, Big-10 Network.

ESPN and SEC Network will re-run games all week.

No one is saying college football is overexposed.

[ez]

It’s the thug factor for me. The NBA and NFL have been overtaken by thug culture. MLB has not. I am watching more baseball this year and little to no basketball and football.

[montag813]

White and Latino players who respect America, her flag and her anthem. NO protests. Sounds good to me. The NFL is dead to this FReeper. I occasionally watch postgame highlights (on youtube not NFL.com), but never watch games ater previously being a fanatic. I hope Goodell & Co. lose billions for their treachery.

[zeestephen]

I played organized baseball through college.

Then I played in various softball leagues for another 10 years.

I loved every second of playing.

But watching it on TV?

No thanks.

Watching MLB is even more boring than watching Soccer.

[foreverfree]

I stopped listening to Rush years ago when I tired of his goofiness. Whenever I see his byline on links I click away immediately. Sorry folks.

The more I enjoy MLB, the less I enjoy NFL. Its quite a stark transition ever autumn. And I grew up living for the NFL.

[xp38]

The NFL rose to popularity in the 1960s overtaking MLB as the most popular spectator sport in the US with TV and gambling. It has remained unchallenged since then. Even with the dip in ratings it will likely remain the big kahuna. If you took away the gambling I would guess interest would drop by half but that isn’t going to disappear. MLB has it’s own problems at least in terms of ratings on a national level. The recent suspension of the Seattle Mariners player for criticizing Obama shows the infiltration of PC there as well.
