I believe the NFL played a similar game recently.

Pick America and the flag that represents America, or pick the NFL.

The NFL Lost!

Choose between Making America Great Again, or a leftist/liberal entity - then leftist/liberal entity will lose.

This is what I have been stressing in my contacts with the NFL sponsors—there is no middle ground.

Are you with us or against us?—Your call.

Well, I guess they having nothing else to talk about. That is a shallow existence. Shallow minded people are boring. As are most of the productions (and stage) in the entertainment industry. Entertainment and theatre used to be art. Now, I think it has morphed into a formula. And as the darlings of the formula indulge themselves, when the pursuit of their lives becomes tediously abstract and they fight for some other recognition besides pretending. Political forensics/discourse is too difficult, but creating angst works for them, and they have once again fallen back into their craft of faking it, which remains tediously abstract.

So the entertainers will preach and preach until the informed public tires of them. Soon they are merely dullards yelling at other dullards, and the media dullards are casting them on all the media resources.

Meanwhile Working Americans get up, go to work and no longer feel refreshed by the entertainment industry or the dullard personalities who persist in spewing on every media resource. And vote to removing the buzzing gnats that are constantly (and irratatingly) buzzing around our ears and eyes.

As for sports, I don’t “get” the “sports is entertainment” rap that is on everyone’s lips. Sports are contests, paying for tickets doesn’t make it entertainment, amateur sports by definition is for the love of the sport. I go to the local track and field competitions to view the competition and abilities of the athletes. I’ve never felt entertained by sports. Historically, Sports are war, or displaying martial aspects through athleticism.

The NFL Lost!

Stadiums still well attended and viewership still in the 10s of millions

Too many Romans still want their circuses
