Almost make you think that the NFL is nothing about the fans . . .

Gosh, just imagine if the NFL operated under the name 'National football league entertainment, inc.' And in a clever twist of marketing, incorporated non-trademarked city/regional names into their own trademark protected teams. And for the final hurrah, made sure that team placement hinted at possible civic partnership & gov't involvement. (Which, in many cases does actually result in public financed facilities.)

You've got to hand it to the owners - like the deep state, they rely on 10s of millions of sub-100 IQ "fans" to support "their" teams. Now, don't get me wrong, I love watching NFL football. I don't care if the players hate the USA, I don't care if the whole thing is contrived. There are moments when the intense planning, preparation and incredible athletic skill all come together to create a moment that would not actually exist in nature.

So, yeah it's fake, yeah it's contrive, but damn, when a good play is executed, it's hard to beat. That's why I'm an anti-fan; I simply follow whichever good teams emerge each year. I hear some buzz about certain players/teams and take a look. There are some players who emerge each year that could be fantasy if they didn't actually exist.
