Gotta walk away from this stuff. Don’t feed the beast, it will begin to die from starvation.

Hear, hear! Maybe one day "entertainers" will learn to its better for business to keep their politicis to themselves.

Correct.

Because of the plethora of rules and the entrepreneurial compensation model, many mistake the NFL for athletic competition. Its not. Its entertainment.

The owners know it. Some players act like they know it. But, the vast majority of fans do not know it.

Getting the players to act like the actors they are would teach the fans that it is just a show and it would end the party. Hence, tolerating their antics instead of weeding out the bad actors.

Maybe they should hire the Dixie Chicks to open the proceedings

Failing that...Obama's favorite band, the Decembrists are always looking for a gig
