Easy question for me -- I don't watch football. I wish I could get into it, but never did. I gravitated towards basketball first, then to baseball shortly thereafter. Now it's pretty much just baseball. The NBA is too much 'attitude' for my tastes. Too many players seem to be constantly aware of making the play that will generate the most flashbulbs. The Larry Bird Celtics were the last team I followed avidly.
Speaking of which, did Larry Bird ever get due credit for hiring a black head coach for the Indiana Pacers? And a former bitter rival at that. It would hearten me to at least see some props for the guy. I'd be willing to bet they've been vilifying him for firing Thomas, though. And somehow the word 'black' will have to do with the media's accusations, and nobody will get in trouble for saying so.
