By looking at this thread ....none of Yinz Evah played any sports in High School..or Jr High....and most here were probably the “last Kid “ to be picked in gym class too ! Playing a neighborhood pick up game of football when you were 13-14... everyone wanted to be Joe Nameth....and in Hockey..Bobby Orr.... We knew these players cus we watched them on a contraption called a TV.....albeit a small black and white 13 inch ,with tin foil for an antenna. That’s where it all started.

Now who's head has the cold froze. Lol It's not that we are against sports. The NFL showed disrespect to our nation. And some of us have fought and served for our country so disrespect is not tolerated. Your team needs to change its name as the one they are using don't fit. And yes Bill Brady and Tom Belichek are household names to not forget. Lol

I remember playing the neighborhood football games, full contact and no pads. Barnball basketball games that if you went away without bleeding, you didn't play right lol. But there are no more Joe Nameths or Bobby Orr's. All that's left is a bunch of idiots with no character, that's why I don't watch them anymore.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I used to watch Super bowls once and a while, even a regular game now and then. I admit it was entertaining, especially if I'd get a little wager going with somebody as to who was going to win.
But I will never understand the fanaticism I see rabid fans displaying for there favorite teams, whether hockey, basketball, football, whatever. What compels a man to wear a duplicate of a team jersey with the number and sometimes even the name of his favorite player on it? What compels fans to decorate their cars and homes with flags, banners, posters and bumper stickers of their favorite teams and players? Or to pay three, four or even five times the worth of a pair of sneakers simply because it was endorsed by their sports hero?
And when you consider that many of the teams these folks seem to worship are populated by America-hating (Anthem-kneeling), women-beating, low-life thugs it gets even more confusing. There have been riots over a certain team winning or losing! I remember when Dale Earnhardt got himself killed. Adoring fans went into morning and flew the number 3 flag at half mast for years...
Like I said, I'll never understand the fanaticism.
Eh...wot?

But I never felt the need to wear somebody else's jersey. You got your Tom Brady jersey on now or are you going to wait until tomorrow? Are you sleeping under Patriot blankets tonight? Matching pillows as wall?
Eh...wot?

It's because the fans are living their lives through the players. Mind boggling when they get so engulfed.

Nessy, I will watch college football all day long, because they aren't spoiled, over-paid, crybabies... YET. NFL I am done with. I never played football in high school or pee wee only because my folks wouldn't let me. I played my fair share of pick up tackle football games with my friends though. You're right, we all wanted to be Steve Young, or Barry Sanders or Brett Favre.

I may have it on the radio, mostly just for background noise. Or just peek in on the score. With all the hype and politics mumbo jumbo that will be involved in commercials and comments, I may just watch Glee reruns.

I was recently doing some remodeling work for a customer and I found out she worked for cable company that supplies my service. So naturally I complained about the high cost of basic cable which I rarely watch. I ask her about any lesser packages. She told me that by losing the "sports package" I could save $27.00 per month. The only time I watch that group of five channels is about twice a month when free UFC MMA fights are on. MMA is the only sport that interests me. I now pay $27.00 less per month. When I told her I'd have to find some other way to watch the free fights, she informed me that, as a cable company employee, she gets everything, even the premium channels and PPV's for free and that I was welcome to watch the fights at her house anytime I wanted to! What's she look like, lug? I hate watching the show boating and the look-at-me acts, but Iove to watch good football. Brady, Belichick are a class act and the Patriots do little to draw attention to themselves -except play great football. This year's team doesn't have the talent of some of the past NE teams have had, but they are one of two teams still playing. And who cares if Brady's a trumpster?

Obviously.............none of you are PATRIOTS fans !!!......Go Pats ! Everyone hates the Patriots and with the idiot Rams and their stupid anti-Trump stance that leaves no one to root for in the super bowl. I won't be watching either.
