Wow.. What a dink I was ^^. Dont normally do that, booze plus anger over whiny pussies in sports these days, got to me.
Sorry to the dudes I offended above.

Obviously, all forums have a feel/style, this one probably isn't for me. (Though great it is).

Not sure how to deactivate my account, admins can do it. Thx...

Only whiny pussies I always see are right wing snowflakes crying about a few football players taking a knee.

The 'snowflake' designation is for the left wing millennials, not the right. We are old fashioned pricks stuck in the past. LOL

I wasn't even going to comment on this thread again, but you all calling each other a pussy over the internet, is a pussy thing to do. Also, if this isn't a political board, than why are you still talking shit on the right wing?

Ugh this whole thing just needs to end. It feels like the whole point of the protest is being lost and now I think it would just make more sense to go back to work and stop all the kneel or no kneel, but that will never happen.

It's not a political site but we like to give people freedom to express here to a large extent.

When bodybuilders start doing it then we will really have something to talk about!

Politics were forced into a sports situation by these protesters. I wish that it was not the case because I have chosen to ignore a league that I have been a rabid fan of for decades and covered as a sportswriter since 2005, sans discussing this situation in a critical manner. So it's a hybrid political/sports discussion.

I completley understand & it is cool that administration allows a large ammount of freedom of the discussion. I also agree that politics were forced into a sports situation & obviously from my previous comments, I am fed up with it to say the least. I just seen talk about this not being a political board & than the same individual was making political comments.... Anyway, there is just a lot of division in general with the subject of protests in sports. I'll just accept it for what it is because stressing out about it is doing absolutely no good.

I hear you on that, bro. It blows that the NFL has become such a controversial subject. I wish we can just watch the damn games without this shit. I personally don't know if I'll ever watch and/or cover the league again because I don't see any solution even attempted.

You can watch the football and just ignore what the players do off the field.

Very well said & I completely understand. Football is a great sport. I've always loved watching it. Hopefully one day, it will all be resolved

It's the principle of the matter and my morals are more important to me than working/watching a sporting event. The first shoe dropped today when Papa John's- a huge sponsor of the NFL - went public with complaints about revenue loss due to the protests and that they league needs to do something to rectify it.

Looks like my account is still active. ArnoldS you are correct. Its their "thing" so let them do it I guess.
Im old fashioned, lost a best frfiend in Gulf war leaving behund his family, so it struck a nerve. (Millionaires playing a game, others putting life on line for country).

I was way out of line w/ you, the very rare time I get worked up, I hope you accept my apology so I can move past this, it bothers me that I spoke yo you like totally out of my character.

Youre great, thank you... Really...

 

[rz3300]

It is a difficult subject and anytime you have the right to free speech at odds with anything you are bound to meet resistance, but this one does seem a little strange. I get it, but at the same time kind of just wish they would play the game, so I like the whole just watch what you want to watch and ignore the rest. But I also understand that is difficult, too. No easy answers for this one.

 

[Rot-Iron66]

Yup, you are so right, everyone has their own thoughts on this. It bugs me, but I respect others opinions.
I just need to not read stuff when I drink vodka at night, then I get all pissy

And thank you again ArnoldS, a good man...
