Remember when boxing used to be on TV?
I watched Larry Holmes bash the hell out of Tex Cobb for 15 rounds... Tex didn’t drop... He should’ve dropped and anybody with a normal skull would’ve dropped, but Tex’s skull was thicker than most and afterwards his face looked like raw bloody hamburger. It was a spectacle of the bizarre and afterwards Howard Cosell announced that he would never call another boxing match... And he never did.
Since they started charging money to watch boxing... I haven’t watched a boxing match since.
The NFL will always make money whether or not we watch, or don’t watch. When they go the way of ‘pay for view’ it will be a sad day for us and even sadder day for the NFL.
Over 35-40 years we have bought lots of NFL swag for our team.
Made sure it had the Official NFL hologram label and all.
Now they don’t want us to watch?
Screw them......................
Yep, remember the Friday Night Fights back in the 50’s and 60’s................
