Most NFL players are convicted felons. What kind of work force is that? What kind of management is that?

You have actually pretty well captured the essence of street narcissism: the idea that you are deserving of respect and propitiation just because you can demand it, and swagger around the garbage piles.

The NFL is the owners, and Goodell is their buttboy.

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

Why do you think those kids that played for Bob Knight still love the guy? He was the only father-figure they had, and he gave them the tough love they needed earlier in life.

Agreed. I don’t respect their skills any more than I would respect the competitive video game players, but they have acquired the skills.

HAHA. Perfect. Their skills are equivalent to those of competitive video game players. I'm sure they'll appreciate the comparison. They are both completely irrelevant to our lives in the real world.

I have always liked baseball. The NBA and NFL has allowed their sport to turn into unarmed combat. It is suppose to be a sport, not combat. Plus I will not support a sport that hates my guts because I am white and a vet. Screw you NFL/NBA.
