It’s a pandemic. In the pros it’s even worse. The last two weeks, refs are deciding games right and left.

That's why I thought the NFL putting a team in Las Vegas was a terrible idea. Remember the The Black Sox Scandal? That was back in 1921? Or Pete Rose back in the '80s?

Anyway, I think there's going to be a huge scandal in the NFL. It's only a matter of time. You already see a lot of talk on social media that the NFL is following a "script". All the fans are noticing that the games are "fixed". You didn't see this kind of chatter 20 years ago.

The NFL used to have the best refs of any sport. Then Goodell became commissioner.

It was an old steel and wood plank bleacher seating stadium, but served the National League games for years. The stadium was named after a guy who built cars. A neighbor owned one of those cars.

We saw one game, watching from a nearby ridge of earth, easily looking over the baseball field. In a time when we were most fortunate, as Americans.
