This brown girl spent big bucks as a Stars season ticket holder for years. T
I won’t be spending a dime on them any more. Almost ashamed to wear my Stars Winter Classic sweater now.

Or even worse, only 10 people show up so they are forced to play the game for the paying fans

Only 10? You underestimate sports addiction. It's like a narcotic more potent than crack or meth.

Addicted conservatives will temporarily set aside their outrage to tune in or attend.

You can take forever off you dips hits.

I’m eagerly awaiting the term, “contraction,” to become a regular topic in American professional sports. I anticipate the MLB will be the first league to disband teams, and it may happen as early as next year.

I also look forward to watching the players, owners and sports media go through the acceptance process, acceptance of the fact that the golden age of American professional sports has passed, and it is not coming back.

> All of these sports leagues are actually controlled by anti-American marxist sympathizers

Yes, the Feral Government™ extorts these organizations via special anti-trust exemptions...

I actually don't undestand this.

The hockey season hasn't even started.

This is the Death Knell for National Sports. People will gravitate to the local high schools, when ‘Covid’ subsides. I will not be watching any type of game on TV anymore. The teams don’t respect the fans, the fans are walking away.

I think it might be a good year to cancel all professional sports and let them go a year without pay. Would not bother me at all. In the mean time, encourage college sports to the hilt, except make a rule that whoever doesn’t play because of a personal proest should lose their schloarship.

I know, it’s all virtue signaling. Basically they refuse to play Thursday but I have no problem playing on Saturday night. It’s not like it caused any major disruption with tens of thousands of fans showed up for a game that never got played as you are playing in empty stadiums and arenas now.

The only reason I knew these teams were playing, besides the MLB, is Win news broke of them not playing

Supporting a group that burns flags and BIBLES. Sorry, Jesus means more to me than any silly sport.

Another Group Stupid.
I watch Sports to enjoy the actual sport-ya know the love of the game—to get away from politics and the ‘ real world’ for a bit,
With all this nonsense—my last refuge and favorite sport Hockey joins the stupidity—thanks to NBC—
my message to NBC
F U-——loud and in your face.

Great. My last sport.

F*** the NHL. Go back to your “playoff”. Just crown a victor and screw the season. Assholes all.

Um, I believe it has. They are already into the "playoffs".

Good luck with that.

The one league that had acted responsibly just blew it. I’m sure it’s pressure from the clowns at NBC. They may experience real backlash for supporting folks that want to destroy the segment of society that pays the freight for the NHL. Sad really, a marketing disaster.

Can’t believe how much I’m getting accomplished without watching millionaires taking a knee.

Why should I google the meaning of your post, why not just explain yourself, or find a tweet that explains what you mean, since you like Twitter a lot. 🙂
