If I was paying attention to the NFL anymore, I would be pulling for the Panthers, but because of their politicizing the league, I do not watch football. I also quit watching baseball, and gave up on basketball long ago. When they stop making it about left-wing issues and it is just about the game, I may at some point care who wins again.

How can you even bring yourself to step outside of your home?

How can you even bring yourself to step outside of your home? It is not easy sometimes when I see what our nation has become. I am grieved over all the people going around with those stupid masks out of fear. I do not know how people that scared leave the house? I hate what America has become since January 20 when an illegitimate and senile Joe Biden was installed as President. I do what I have to do. I have responsibilities, so I deal with it. While I drive, I listen to gospel music most of the time, and that takes my mind off of things. I truly appreciate your concern.

That is good, because last night, I thought you were upset with me. Maybe you just do not like being bothered in a PM? That is fine. Some people do not like talking on the phone. To each his own. I am the same way. I can be friends with anyone who wants to be friends, even if we disagree. It is more about attitude than beliefs.

I was a little peeved at you, because I told you that I do not do the whole PM thing and prefer the open board, and you continued in the PM, disrespecting my wishes. But I am not one to hold a grudge.

But I am not one to hold a grudge. I was not meaning to disrespect you. I felt like there was something unfinished. That is all. I did not plan to keep sending you PMs. Sorry for any misunderstanding. Like I said, I know some do not like talking on the phone. We are all different.

When they stop making it about left-wing issues and it is just about the game, I may at some point care who wins again. I think we're long past that point, John; I believe all four pro sports leagues have come to understand that, in doing what they believed to be the right thing per se' the anthem protests and everything down from that, they were going to lose - likely permanently - a large chunk of their audiences and they came to the conclusion that it was an acceptable loss. I also believe that, in doing what they did, the pro leagues effectively said to those who left,"You don't care for the sports, you just want the athletes to step and fetch it for your entertainment and they - nor us - are going to play that 'Shut up and .....' game anymore." And it wasn't just the pro leagues either; I've lost count of how many times the U.S. Women's Soccer team - and certain of its' players - have been slagged relentlessly by the Right from the first anthem protests to now; I mean, to seriously wish for the USWNT to lose when they're competing in international events is low, even for American politics. So if you don't want to follow them, John, have at it; its' a free country last time I checked. Meanwhile, the rest of us will follow them, either a little or a lot.

A lot of Americans stopped following them. The ratings are way down. I know many other long time fans that have completely abandoned professional sports. We no longer buy their merchandise, pay for their network subscriptions. We are just done with them. I do not take issue with those who still watch them. I just refuse to support them anymore. I want them to take a hit financially. That will mean the players will get less money. They will have less to bargain with.

If you're that worried about your entertainment being tainted by politics, maybe the politics ain't the problem...

I watch RedZone. Never see politics there.

Jets lose again. I doubt they'll win 6 games this second. Rookie second pick in the NFL draft QB Zach Wilson threw for 4 interceptions. Dear God, the Jets will get that kid killed with the crap line he has around him. Pull him and save his body and mind allow him to learn this season, and put the backup quarterbacks in because their health isn't really a concern. Build a better team for next year.

The last time I played quarterback was tailgating at a Jets vs Bears game in the Meadowlands parking lot. The scotch was going down pretty good and I organized a "touch" football game between Jets fans and Bears fans. The game quickly devolved into a full contact tackle game on the asphalt. We were so banged up and bruised by gametime. I had dislocated my right thumb. again. On the trip home my "friends" took a unanimous vote that they were never going to invite me to a game ever again.
