# Hanging in with college ball though.

Why? Is ‘wokeness’ any less? Not from what I’ve seen.

Enjoy the bread and circuses

I am so pissed at them, I have removed them from every possible exposure to my eyeballs.

They are removed from all my news, sports, etc.. feeds

Everytime one of these tech companies try to sneak them on a page I complain

Exactly. All these apologists for college ball…and high school…are naive. Or willfully ignorant.

What could be worse than college athletics? They honest believe college is going to avoid it and discourage it?

To: Tell It Right

It is true that Democrats wanted rid of the NFL and all the toxic masculinity that went along. The NFL chose sides afterwards trying to appease the leftists. The leftists are more vocal about things they say they care about. I quit football because they knuckled under and became the thing they had to be to pacify the left. The news media did that 25 years ago and it worked out fine for them.

Yeah....just think how much better it will be when we get rid of the woke and lying organization with their distractions and propagandizing entertainment

All calculated to bring people back into their fold. “See”, they say, “look how fair we are. Come back”
They failed in the honesty test long ago. They had their chance. They must be financially destroyed. Any legal way.

I never was more than a casual football fan. Now, I’m an open enemy of it.

I can’t understand the often engulfing, religious zeal over team sports. It’s all a contrived fantasy.

Meh. All I know about football is that Jesuit is 1-1 so far, and we’re playing Choctaw tomorrow night.

Wokeness is no less but, somehow one expects that on college campus. Kinda like the old saying “If you’re not a liberal when you are young, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative when you are an adult, you have no brain.” I expect pro’s to be adults. Sadly it doesn’t seem they all are.
