I've stopped watching altogether. Nothing to do with politics or this shit. I just think it's a bad game. I think it's awful for young children that get into tackle at an early age. Just dealt with a season with my nephew. ALL the coaches are failed losers that think their kid is going to make it big. It's child abuse.

It's why most NFL players are gone after 3 years, lose any wealth they gained and are BK shortly after. I think it's something like 70% of the league ends up broke after their playing years They didn't learn any life skills the whole time they were playing from kid league to pro. And sure there are exceptions, but football is probably the worst sport one could play mentally and physically.

And no one tell me it teaches teamwork. It teaches you to despise teamwork if you're a producer. Especially positions like QB. You could throw a laser pass that's accurate but you're eating dirt because the guys in front of you suck. That really boosts ones moral.

Yes, football is really not a smart game, at the very least they should go back to the leather helmets and pads so that it hurts to collide with another player, that alone would force them to be a little more careful in their aggression.

And another way the QB can have his morale broken is when the receivers drop a perfect pass. And then there is the cheating and poor enforcement of the rules by referees. It is not that different than “pro” wrestling.

What is sport? It's a test of physical superiority. A test of agility, speed, accuracy and strength. What is man without physical tests? Let the games begin...but leave that woke shit at the door.

Individual Sports - fight yourself.

Lift Weights, Running, Swimming, Biking. Expose yourself to the Elements. Chop Wood.

Increase your physical capacity and discipline yourself without needing a middle aged chubby coach yelling at you.

The Giants of New York took on the Packers of Green Bay. The Giants triumphed by kicking a pigskin ball through a big H. A most ripping victory.

I have no issue with sport. I'm an IL All State Athlete myself two times almost 3. I'm capable of working with a team, but sometimes you HAVE to take matters into your own hands. You simply cannot do that with football. The best player on a losing team is still just that, a loser. Are lessons learned? Yes. That you shouldn't rely on other people for your own growth.

There's also politics in sports, especially kids around high school age. Parents, kids of teachers on teams, etc. It's not always the best kid gets game time. Could even be money if they're a booster. I dealt with it for basketball. I was one of two kids that could dunk in school, with the other being a senior and I was a sophomore at that time. I could rebound like a mother fucker and had a turn around jumper that was killer. I got cut Junior year because two kids had nepotism on their side. Is what it is. Life lesson from that. Spot those pussies and dominate them is what I should have done. Make it so they don't make the team. I was too nice I guess or thought I was a shoe in because I was clearly better. Learned from that. Adults in coaching are generally idiots and just looking to get an extra check and pad the pension in high school.

I'm just saying that I appreciate the incredible authentic ability on display. Sports are never going away. Been with us since forever. This country has somehow allowed the rich become too powerful which has fucked up almost all enjoyment. Something has got to be done about it.
