Nice to see that The Old Head Ball Coach still beats teams from Georgia.

Hardin wasn’t playing last night. I’m a Rockets fan... But even I don’t want to watch them play anyone without their star.

Anything should outdraw the national thug league.

Can’t wait to see the reaction when the Mavericks start fielding an all-white team.

Agreed, Fungi.

I stopped watching or following the NFL, two years ago. I had NEVER missed a Super Bowl until then. But, I could not stomach the disrespect of the few against this grand experiment, against the United States of America. I refuse to support, in any way, such an organization.

I’ve got to say...I’m watching the AAF. Let’s see where this goes.

Although I’ll take the 80s and 90s NBA over today’s no defense/just shoot 3s league, today’s NBA isn’t a thug league as it was back in the early 2000s. Very few fights and off the court behavior is about average compared to other professional leagues. Even golf has a player getting over cocaine use

Good start.

Watched a little bit of it. There was some good hitting - the one quarterback had his helmet knocked off. And no flag!

That’s a stretch on most of them being thugs on that point. Most of our society have children out of wedlock; it’s not right but it’s all too common throughout this country. Having more out of wedlock kids than others doing it is a reach on being thugs

Did watch the games, since I’m getting ready for my favorite seasons - auto racing and baseball. Heard the games are good, so maybe I’ll check it out...

NFL Network was apparently pulling down some of the youtube streams.

This one is currently working for the Salt Lake - Arizona game:

You can thank the influx of white Euro players for that. I love watching Luka Doncic play.

You could post a link instead of telling everyone to do the work. After 12 min of searching, I cannot find a single source with anything concrete.

Who, Tiger? Oh wait, he was drunk and on downers when he was arrested for DUI. By the way, what ever happened to that DUI? That’s a story that died in the media. I’m sure he got the ole ballplayer’s-deal and the DA disappeared the charge without it ever getting to court.
