Yeh, I was flipping around and came across it. Just out of curiosity I watched for a few minutes but it was so lame I continued flipping. Think I may have stopped on Man vs Food, not sure....

Last year not 5 minutes of my time was devoted to anything nfl.
College gams, yes.
Expect a repeat this year.
Like my ex wife, the nfl is dead to me.

Didn’t know there was a game last night. Don’t care, either.

But things may change. The NFL has yet to try out its new motto...”DON’T BE A RACIST BIGOT! WATCH THE NFL!”

It’s interesting they get it from both sides of the political spectrum too. Left leaning people ignore it as a waste of time/money on roided out masculinity or pretend to like something more sophisticated like soccer etc.. Right leaning people ignore it over the anthem issue and all the black players.

Me I think I lost interest a few years ago for other reasons and just got bored. It’s funny as I’ve gotten older I appreciate baseball a lot more than I once did, and golf.

I never understood what football had to do with the military anyway. I sort of think they started all that faux over the top patriotism to get feel good ratings, but now it’s come back on them. Ironic

Me too. Turned the TV on to catch the weather. Only watched a few seconds as I was preparing to switch channels. I was never into pre-season anyway but as the song goes; “The thrill is gone”.

Not sure how you are getting those emails from the Seahawks. I have been on the waiting list for Season Tickets for years, and I am still probably 10 years away from getting them.

He was the only owner that stated since the new rule that his players would stand, toe on the line. I fully disclosed that I am a long time fan so that is not an excuse. What it is, is that I will watch again if they grow a pair and “toe the line”. The owners need to show the players that they are the owners. If not, pay the consequences.

It should be noted that not a single player on either the Bears or the 2013 Super Bowl winning Ravens didn’t stand for the National Anthem last night.

Was locker room off limits?

I’m such a non-football fan, I’ve never even heard of a hall of fame game

I was at Sam’s Club tonight in Baltimore. The SJW’s in their product department must be willfully deaf. There was tons of high end Ravens stuff, like fully imprinted canopies and tables. I suspect they’ll have a lot at the end of the year

“This year they inducted a double murderer into the Hall of Fame.”

Yup. If nothing else he obstructed justice (at the very, very least). Fled the scene. Witnesses said he was covered in blood. Cops wanted to get his clothes, he said the cleaners lost them. Lying POS. And he still got to play football. Nice to see the National Felons League likes to stick by their conduct clause.

I wonder if I could get the same kind of plea deal after destroying evidence. Oh wait. Hitlery did.

When I started withdrawal 2 years ago when Colon started his hate tantrum I thought I might miss watching the games. Pfshaaaw! I don’t even think about ‘em anymore. And I dropped NASCAR too, for good measure.

Best I can recall, the MN. Vikings are the only NFL team that didn’t kneel during the National Anthem last season.
