Good points.

If 10% of Disaffected NFL fans spent as much time on politics as they did on football... we might turn the country around!

yes, we’ve discovered that dog shows (and the ones where the pooches compete, run courses, etc) are much much more interesting than NFL.. surprisingly perhaps but they’re fascinating!
and the dogs don’t try to insult or show contempt for us, the audience, either

Superbowl. That multiweek hyped time when a bunch of illiterate millionairs who are not from the city play for a team that is only loyal to a city for as long as they can bilk the taxpayers for a new stadium, around a little kids ball in between commercials and interrupted midway through with a super krappy hate filled left wing political indoctrination masquerading as a pop music show that can be described as mediocre at best. I think my time would be more productive sanding my eyeballs while carving all the letters of the alphabet into my teeth with an emery board then chewing on some nice tasty aluminum foil

How do the stands look? I saw a lot of empty seats right now, but it’s halftime.

I’d rather watch high school football.

Don’t watch the far left , racist players anymore. Screw them. The only way for the NFL to wake up, and be American is for us to boycott them.

The NFL is showing weakness by keeping Roger Goodell, they should replace him with Al Sharpton.

I think this us all headed for an NFL rule for next year that the anthem is to be played before the players take the field

Won’t watch the NFL, only college and of course, the CFL. (Stamps won the Grey Cup today! They beat the Tranna Argonauts 24-16.)

I don’t think Condi wants to push for the job.
She may have had enough with people hating her because she was part of the Bush White House. Condi may be reluctant to jump back into that noisy Snake Pit of the media.
I hope I’m wrong. Her being given that appointment would be a real sea change and would attract a tremendous amount of attention.

This may be a somewhat thankless job that very few would willingly take, because no matter what side you favor, there is always going to be someone who hates your guts with a passion.

“all LA superbowl”

That would serve them right. It’d be a fitting way to end this debacle.
