America needs to end its obsession with sports. Make those players go back on the field for pocket change while holding down a job somewhere else.

That's easier said than done. Affluent society enjoys entertainment, including sports. There is a lot of gambling money at sake.

As long as the society remain affluent, sports will remain popular and athletes well paid.

The wokeness of the NBA and NFL might result in a shift by many to other sports or venues of entertainment. It's unlikely, though, you're going to see athletes in either playing for pocket change unless there is an economic depression.

I went with one of my brothers who was a commercial pilot and one of his friends-an Oneida Indian we called Chief Oshkosh who flew P47s during WW2.

Anyway, we walked around looking at all the WW2 aircraft. Chief got himself half a snoot full-beer, and started talking about getting into one of the P47s and taking off.

We got him to hell out of there. He was actually that nuts and would have tried it.

That was the late 60s or early 70s..

Big League Politics has reported on the NFL’s plans to play the so-called “Black National Anthem” before games this season:

They’ll play it, but no fans will be in the stands to hear it, and it won’t be played on TV. That time is too valuable for commercials.

Thats how cynical and hypocritical Roger Goodell is.

It’s going to be a lot harder to blame the low television ratings on Covid...

Who is paying the NFL to give the finger to its fan base?
*****************************************
The NFL Players Assoc., which is dominated by black players and leaders.

It’s like schools making decisions about curriculum subject matters based on what is demanded by teachers’ unions.

Packers are the only NFL team that is owned by stockholders ...not just one or two persons.. Always has been.
