Disappointing that your post got so little traction.

I’ve been there a number of years, now cable/satellite-free.

Agreed. I particularly disliked his invoking of Veterans once the heat came on. Race-bating coward that he is....

The last football game I watched was when I was in the high school band and had to be there, 1973. Never had any interest in it.

I was a big baseball fan, never had a favorite team, just liked to watch two good t4eams square off, couldn’t care less who won.

Until 1975 when the players went on strike for more money. Season started 2 months late I think it was. I was in the military making less than 1/4 what they did to sit on the bench, while I waited for some politician to decide to send me halfway around the world to be a moving target.

I didn’t like that. So I never watched a baseball game again, the last one I watched was the world series of 1973.

The only sports I’ve ever had any interest in since then is the Olympics and an occasional NASCAR race. And it’s probably been 5 years since I watched a few minutes of a race.

I never buy any sports related items, even things I find in yard sales with any team logo, it stays there. I once passed up a deal on a nice jacket because it had the Houston Oilers logo on it. 2 bucks...leather...no thanks...

Michael Vick caught raising 25 pit bulls to take to dog fights. A year later back on the football field making millions.

I can’t remember how many busted for drunk, beating their wives and girlfriends, drugs, steroid scandals, and the ever present incredibly stupid commercials. Beer commercials are a pet peeve. Professional “athletes” and role models promoting the biggest drug problem in this country...deplorable.

I don’t support any sports team, never have, haven’t watched a game of any kind since the mid 70’s and that was when I visited friends who were huge Oilers/Cowboys fans. Didn’t stay long...
