“NFL no longer produces pro football. They now produce Sports Entertainment.”
Yep, the day of football greats like Bart Starr, Johnny Unitas, Dick Butkus and Jim Brown are long gone.
Yesterday, Dan Campbell would have been elected Mayor of Detroit. Now they’re calling for his head.
I always hated that Arte did that. But then he wanted the Mexicans from Los Angeles to sneak through the orange curtain and spend money at his stadium. For all Anaheim did for that team, they deserve the acknowledgement. I still have photos of attending games the first year they were in Anaheim, and have solid memories of watching Mickey Mantel and Roger Maris play there.
Gotta root for Mr. Irrelevant.
yeah I hate games decided by some fluke play.
In the old days that would have been called offensive pass interference since the defender was clearly on track with the ball and the offensive player threw him off when he bumped into him.
Sounds like a good day for golf.
Ravens Lions would’ve been worth watching.
SF KC... meh
The Kings of the Forest have struck out!
might be a good day to take a ride in the country or spend some quality time at costco...
“Cheering for the Chiefs?”
I,, too, will be rooting for the KC Chiefs!
Kapernick is only one of the many reasons that I dislike everything on the entire West Coast!!!!
No thanks. Not my cup of tea. I don't even listen to music when I read.
Or getting a root canal.
The game usually doesn’t start until it’s dark, or at least in my neck of the woods, but I’m sure I’ll go for a nice long walk that day, unless the weather is foul. Whatever happens, I’m sure we will find something interesting to do.
They’re catering to females who have never watched the game, and will disappear as soon as Tay-Tay moves on. It’s a short-lived thing.
Football just doesn’t seem like football anymore. Too much gambling, too much pandering. I am really souring on it.
Even this game with the Lions I could barely stand to watch. And I watch very few games live anymore, just highlights.
I won’t even bother with the Super Bowl, even the ads suck now.
*** Roger Maris***
Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. Thanks for the reminder.
The ads are the worst. We have to mute the tv when they come on. They’re sooo bad.
I think I’ll go through my closet, and get rid of stuff I don’t use anymore. Win-win.
But many other 49ers are. Christian McCaffrey, Nick Bosa are. I am pretty sure Trent Williams, and Dre Greenlaw are. Fred Warner is religious, but he is LDS. There are some others and pictures. There are pictures of them in prayer together.
“How the F* do you blow a 24-7 lead for the NFC Championship? How?”
Ask the Atlanta Falcons. They blew a 17-0 lead (also to the 49ers) in the NFC championship in 2012
