Too much milked drama. That's all it is. Now they post the games that we have to pay extra to watch.

Do we have to put up with this? They're getting taxpayer subsidies and for that they get to decide what they'll offer us and for what price. We're all free marketers so where's the free market? The rats love the game just as much as we do but how many of them are going to stand up to the NFL? We're paying for the right to pay even more. Someone needs to call them out.

Is Taylor Swift preggers with Travis Kelce’s baby? Otherwise, why watch football? She’s the only reason I pay attention to this sport.

We’ll continue to pay as long as the people love to watch the game. The owners got us by the short hairs. We’re all contributing when we buy that 6 pack of beer before kickoff. Apparently that’s not good enough. These owners need to be cut down a notch or two. Would they ever plead poverty? Are we going against our free market principals by taking them on? I think not but I’d be happy to be called a hypocrite over this.

Who cares.

96% of them knelt for BLM. BLM was a summer of riots that scared judges out of hearing the STEAL, a big grift. and has now turned into punch or beat to death a white person fad.

How can anyone forget and/or support that?

The games are not worth watching. Complete waste of time. Better to exercise oneself, read a book, eat a nice meal, and take a good nap than watch one of those meaningless “games”...get your vegetable and fruit garden plans ready...

NFL = No Fans Left...

The hardcore fanatics will still pay and watch that garbage. Even if they pee’d on the American flag on the 50 yard line at halftime, the easily entertained drunks would still yup it up.

The problem for people wanting to punish the major sports leagues is that there is a lot less original entertainment on TV and in the movies than there was a decade ago. Sports is about the only “new” entertainment people are willing to pay for.

When I was a kid, I'd get the Sporting News and Pro Football Weekly. Not much information, but what was there was actual reporting and real information about the game and the guys who played it.

Now we're deluged in NFL news and most of it is about what some random player thinks about BLM, TV games behind paywalls and uniform fashion choices. Oh, and Taylor Swift. Lots and lots about Taylor Swift.

Everybody's going streaming. Week one Packers versus Eagles. Why's that I wonder...

Will Aaron Rodgers play more than 5 plays for the Jets this year?

Hmmm, Pats - tough schedule. Win 5 games and excellent Draft position to restock their defense.

2025 win 11 games and the AFC East.
