NFL game last night

[Wathen1955]

I was surprised to see a NFL game featuring KC vs Texans in KC on Thursday. I wanted to watch to see what kind of game play was going to be like, because there was no preseason this year. After the teams came on the field, they started their moment of silence, fans booed them, and then they did Lift Every Voice And Sing, widely considered the black national anthem. The other tidbit came from the 2 game announcers: Chris Collinsworth and Al Micheals who said nothing about the boos from the fans. I turned the channel to watch MASH (1970) which was on TMC with no commercials.

I guess I may quit watching NFL and move to Hockey or quit watching all sports altogether.

I also watched Mash :datawiz:

[FLEXjs]

quit watching all sports altogether.

Not watching sports is very liberating. :yesnod:

Actually not watching TV at all is even more so.


Turn the ****ing TV off and go DO something.

I guess I may quit watching NFL and move to Hockey or quit watching all sports altogether.

How much more hatred of you and your country are you willing to watch before you absolutely stop watching? How much more of the players telling you that they hate you personally do you need?

[Mike Mercury]

the boos were about fans not liking players personal-politics being brought into the workplace.

Nothing more, nothing less.

First time I 1000% agree with one of your posts. :seasix:

[Cybercowboy]

Did not watch, won't be watching any. Just like last year. The players actually go into their locker rooms during the national anthem, which is so incredibly messed up. Yes, I get it. The NFL doesn't want us seeing them kneeling. But it's so far too late for that shit. They hate their own fans, and it shows. And I'm surrounded by cucked-out Chiefs fans who just ignore all the current bullshit because they are sportsball addicted.

[VITE1]

Did not watch, will not watch. If I want to be lectured by overpaid ignorant people I will go to the local DNC HQ.

I sure didn't.

You’re the one who said it was right the way you wrote it. I had to look it up. :shrug:

[MikeB]

Yeah, I wonder why they booed?

“How would you feel?"
“Imagine there is a man who, for the last five years, has assaulted you, on average, two times a year. He has raped you in the past. Then, he shows up at your house at 4:00 in the morning. You wake up to find him standing above you, you have your child in bed with you. He has his 'junk' out and then he sexually assaults you. He leaves the room, you quiet your child and go into the living room. He is gone. You look out the window and your car is gone. You check your purse, your keys and ATM card are gone. You call the cops. Cops show up. As you cry, you describe the sexual assault. The cops tell you this man has withdrawn money from your bank account twice in the last several minutes. Okay, are you 'imagining' all that? Well, then imagine this. The guy who sexually assaulted you has received over TWO MILLION from a 'GoFundMe' account. NFL players, such as Drew Brees, have your rapist's name on his helmet. MLB baseball players walk off the field to support your rapist. EVERY THING I JUST TYPED IS FACT! It comes from the police report on the Jacob Blake incident. Not shit, we have professional sports figures celebrating a friggin' rapist!

[Iron Chef]

Houston Coach: "Black lives do matter". Yeaaahhh right buddy...the only black lives that matter to you are the $100M per copy crybabies you're counting on for a winning season.

KC Coach: "We can all learn from this". No lessons to be learned here. We already know what a bunch of full of shit sycophants you are.

Oh...and I didn't even know the game was on. Pro sports, including, sadly, baseball, is not on my radar.

Just one big ole' :spdchk:

Open Letter To The NFL PLAYERS. The Boycott is coming.

You graduated high school in 2011. Your teenage years were a struggle. You grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. Your mother was the leader of the family and worked tirelessly to keep a roof over your head and food on your plate.

Academics were a struggle for you and your grades were mediocre at best. The only thing that made you stand out is you weighed 225 lbs and could run 40 yards in 4.2 seconds while carrying a football. Your best friend was just like you, except he didn’t play football. Instead of going to football practice after school, he went to work at McDonald’s for minimum wage.

You were recruited by all the big colleges and spent every weekend of your senior year making visits to universities where coaches and boosters tried to convince you their school was best. They laid out the red carpet for you. Your best friend worked double shifts at Mickey D’s. College was not an option for him. On the day you signed with Big State University, your best friend signed paperwork with his Army recruiter. You went to summer workouts. He went to basic training.

You spent the next four years living in the athletic dorm, eating at the training table. You spent your Saturdays on the football field, cheered on by adoring fans.

Tutors attended to your every academic need. You attended class when you felt like it. Sure, you worked hard. You lifted weights, ran sprints, studied plays, and soon became one of the top football players in the country. Your best friend was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division. While you were in college, he deployed to Iraq once and Afghanistan twice. He became a Sergeant and led a squad of 19-year-old soldiers who grew up just like he did. He shed his blood in Afghanistan and watched young American's give their lives, limbs, and innocence for the US.

You went to the NFL combine and scored off the charts. You hired an agent and waited for draft day. You were drafted in the first round and your agent immediately went to work, ensuring that you received the most money possible. You signed for $16 million although you had never played a single down of professional football. Your best friend re-enlisted in the Army for four more years. As a combat tested sergeant, he will be paid $32,000 per year.

You will drive a Ferrari on the streets of South Beach. He will ride in the back of a Blackhawk helicopter with 10 other combat loaded soldiers. You will sleep at the Ritz. He will dig a hole in the ground and try to sleep. You will “make it rain” in the club. He will pray for rain as the temperature reaches 120 degrees.

On Sunday, you will run into a stadium as tens of thousands of fans cheer and yell your name. For your best friend, there is little difference between Sunday or any other day of the week. There are no adoring fans. There are only people trying to kill him and his soldiers. Every now and then, he and his soldiers leave the front lines and “go to the rear” to rest.

When the National Anthem plays and you take a knee, he will jump to his feet and salute the television. While you protest the unfairness of life in the United States, he will give thanks to God that he has the honor of defending his great country.

To the players of the NFL: We are the people who buy your tickets, watch you on TV, and wear your jerseys. We anxiously wait for Sundays so we can cheer for you and marvel at your athleticism. Although we love to watch you play, we care little about your opinions until you offend us. You have the absolute right to express yourselves, but we have the absolute right to boycott you. We have tolerated your drug use and DUIs, your domestic violence, and your vulgar displays of wealth. We should be ashamed for putting our admiration of your physical skills before what is morally right. But now you have gone too far. You have insulted our flag, our country, our soldiers, our police officers, and our veterans. You are living the American dream, yet you disparage our great country. I encourage all like-minded Americans to boycott the NFL.

National boycott of the NFL is November 8th & 15th in honor of Veteran’s Day, November 11. Boycott all football telecast, all fans, all ticket holders, stay away from attending any games, let them play to empty stadiums. Pass this post along to all your friends and family. Honor our military - some of whom come home with the American flag draped over their coffin.
Add MLB, NBA, and any other sport that kneels to this https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t93/1/16/1f1fa_1f1f8.png

Open Letter To The NFL PLAYERS. The Boycott is coming.

While I agree with this 100%, there will be no boycott. Americans in general are just too addicted to sports and they won't do it. As much as we hate to admit it, sadly, we know this to be true. While I was working at the golf course today, almost everyone I spoke with wanted to get home in time for the Cowboy game. The guy in the pro shop was watching the Buccaneers on his phone.

And people don't pay any more attention to "open letters" than they do a censure by the United Nations.

[Wathen1955]

Jaguars-Colts is the only NFL franchise that will have any fans in attendance at today’s games.

I wonder if TV attendance will be down?

There will be a story about it this week.

Finally an ex coach with balls: Mike Ditka tells NFL players to get the hell out if they can’t respect U.S.A.

Mike Ditka was a guest on Newsmax and he delivered exactly what the program expected, telling NFL players, “if you can’t respect this country, get the hell out.”
