what all of these sports big-wigs fail to realize is that sports fandom is an obsessive, emotionally addictive behavior that produces a synthetic “caring” response, but that it’s a fairly easy addiction to break, namely abstain from “your” sport for a season, finding something else to do with your time in the meantime, and then next season you’ll find yourself not “caring” ...

btw, can you imagine what’s going to happen to the values of high-end sports memorabilia when people quit caring about and/or watching sports?

Funny you should mention that. My wife and I visit all the local ‘Goodwill’, ‘Salvation Army’ and Thrift Shops on weekends.

I usually look thru all the tee-shirts and jerseys, looking mainly for motorcycle themed ones, HD, etc.

Lately I’ve noticed a lot of NFL jerseys that you used to not ever see any!.........Even saw a Tom Brady Pats jersey.............
