Please cancel the season, for the good of the children. For the good of everyone!!

Oh yeah, and please cancel it because without football, many of our institutes of higher indoctrination will be absolutely financially destroyed. Please colleges, continue to join the lemming line and jump off that cliff. Die a horrible, self-inflicted death. Do it for the good of the children!!!

The July jobs numbers came out. And voila, the push to cancel everything because of COVID has kicked into high gear. Next up will be the stories about how, suddenly, every child who has so much as a skinned knee is a Covid case.

But looting and rioting in our cities is A-OK.

School or a football game? Not so much. That’s dangerous!!

Hell, I hope they don’t cancel so they can take it in the shorts from a lack of viewers.

People will realize they don’t need sports. Although it’s a convenient excuse to get drunk and make a fool of yourself.

Burn it down. I have zero desire to watch a sport that I once loved. It's a pipeline to the to the anti-American NFL. Black culture has over taken college athletics. I need not watch that crap. I do not need to be lectured on political thought while watching on TV. (I dropped my cable to make sure I don't. FU Comcrap/NBC Universal, ESPN, et.al.) I will return to watching football when it rids itself of black culture and politics. At the college level that will also require White-only student athletes that have real majors and not some hyphenated "studies". In fact, I'll have nothing to do with so-called institutions of higher learning until they are gutted of leftist indoctrination studies.

Of course my demands are too great. When I make a decision, its made. The past is cut.

They should play it in the spring, get through this BS and start play after NFL season, start mid Jan and play through March before baseball, playoffs during spring break.

Yep, without alumni and legislative support tied mainly to sports the budgets will decline significantly. Can not wait for it to happen.

What i used to call "soccer" I now call "football." There is no other kind of football. The name change makes sense anyway. "FOOTball!"

And now there no confusion when I talk to anyone outside of the USA about the sport. Otherwise, it all devolves into conversation about Marxists and Anarchy.

I think they cancel. Their legal departments probably told them about the trial lawyers trying to find a deep pocket to sue for any COVID-related excuse.

Safer to roll up the sidewalks and let the trial lawyer zombies pass by on the way anywhere else.

Think of the lawsuits if a guy who’s projected as a first round draft pick gets COVID, has blood clots in his lungs and heart that effectively end his athletic career, just because some jock-sniffing retards want to watch football on Saturdays. That’s a big damn lawsuit, multiplied hundreds of times.

I personally do not see why college football is important at all. Yeah, sitting around on a Saturday afternoon and downing a six-pack and a bag of Doritos while watching a bunch of young man beat up on each other may sound like fun to some. Not anymore to me.

So many better things one can do on a Saturday.

They can kiss non revenue (i.e., Title 9) sports goodbye, which football funded.

As my screen name indicates, I live in Nebraska. Husker football is a huge part of our culture here. My group of friends get together and watch the Husker game almost every weekend. We have been carrying on this tradition since the early 80’s. It is what we do. No Husker football is going to be like a year without Christmas.

These dirty bastards are f****ng with our way of life. This is a bridge too far in my world. I am freaking out right now as are my friends. I guess the only positive is that I will be playing a lot of fall golf.

Who needs football when you can watch the revolution in the streets?

A little topsy turvy but -

Saban has spoken:

“We also test anybody that has symptoms and have an open testing site where they can go and get tested as many times as they want or any time they feel like they need to,” Saban said. “But our guys aren’t going to catch [the virus] on the football field. They’re going to catch it on campus. The argument then should probably be, ‘We shouldn’t be having school.’ That’s the argument. Why is it, ‘We shouldn’t be playing football?’ Why has that become the argument?”
