Tivo is offering a modification (or whatever you would call it) for the Superbowl. If you record the game, you can hit the skip button and skip the game in between commercials.

Aren’t those players already getting millions of dollars?
They sold out, for a little bag of silver!
Funny how that never got publicized.

But your long list of offenses with dates shows that they still have a place in your head and you wish they would reform so you can come back.

Bryan, go tear down some Confederate monuments while you go about erasing the past.

‘he NFL has evolved to become a tribute to large black men with poor self control.’

actually, nothing more needs to be said; this is why the NFL has lost its mojo...

Wrong; I haven't watched an NFL football game since they fired Tom Landry.

I really don’t give a felon what the NFL does.

Yet they yearn for those WHITE MALE Father Figures, since 70% of them don’t have one

The reality is, black athletes look up to their Caucasian coaches because those are the MEN they wish they could be

The NFL refuses ads which “they say” could be political or offensive. Then why did they accept a Pepsi ad offering a tribute to Michael Jackson? I find Michael Jackson highly offensive and criminal.I’m certain a hundred young boys did too (first hand)

The NFL is so out of step and tone deaf. They don’t seem to understand why fewer people want to buy their product, particularly when they double down on force feeding us crap!

Irrelevant to me. Don’t watch, don’t support, don’t care.

Actually I’m kind of glad that these twits have shown their real views. Makes it a lot more socially acceptable to simply note that you’re “taking a knee” on stupidbowl Sunday. Also, it makes it much less likely that a team, complete with tax subsidized stadium, will ever come to VA.

The NFL, under the weak and wrong-headed leadership of Roger Goodell, has lost sight that they are a sports entity to provide entertainment to its fans.

Goodell has taken the NFL to full frontal SJW.

Last I heard the NFL is spending $200 million on SJW programs.

To their own detriment.

The NFL has been committing slow suicide for several years........this is all their own fault.

Not interested in the NFL, thanks. I already have a religion.

The fact that Justin Timberlake is once again performing in the Super Bowl halftime show is another indicator the NFL is sick and dying.

After the little "wardrobe malfunction" stunt he pulled with Janet Jackson in the Super Bowl halftime a few years back, the NFL should have totally banned him from any future NFL productions. Instead, they welcome this cultural sewage Timberlake back with open arms.

It's because of the self-destructive behavior of the NFL that the upstart XFL might have a chance. I plan to watch.

Unfortunately, it’s not complicated. The owners simply made a business decision. They chose to lose 10 or 20% of their audience instead of taking the very serious risk that the NFL thugs would go on strike and take all their profits away if they tried to force them to behave like normal Americans. It’s not Rocket Science.

LOL. The butthurt NFL idolator strikes back!

I never said a thing about erasing the past. I’m talking about the future.

Yet you keep track of offenses and dates for something you haven’t watched in decades??
