General NFL comments and observations

In order to pic games right, winners, losers, one has to understand much beyond the physical play.

Blake Bortles, QB of the Jags



Blake Bortles gets a thumbs up from me so far.

One of the few good pics the Jags have made in a few years.

He's not afraid to throw the ball down field and seems to have a high QB IQ.

I think he has a bright future in the NFL.

Not his fault he ended up with the Jags, but if indeed he's a good QB, it will be up to him to elevate Jags to next level.

What sickens me about the NFL in regards to Michael Sam

The NFL would rather have millions of people watch closet gays play on the field, bi-soxuals, and other deviant types, than to allow one honest player to play, who's open about their orientation, and who is a one person type of guy.

Michael Sam was, is, honest...and honest people are the best people in that you know up front what you're dealing with.

The NFL is full of many closet versions of Michael Sam, and now they'll remain even more closet.



After they witnessed how the league treated Sam.

Kind of like sweeping dust under rug hoping no one will notice syndrome.

Truth is the NFL, from players to coaches to owners and everyone in between, is full of the exact cross culture of America.

That means yogarts, gays, abusers, drug addicts, racists, atheists, bullies, bi-soxuals, and on and on.

But one thing the Michael Sam episode has taught them is to simply be 'hush' about it.

Pretend you're 'normal'...and the league will give you a pass.


Pretend you're 'normal', and the league will give you a pass

But if you have enough integrity to come out about yourself that Michael Sam had, than suffer the full wrath of 'image control'.

In other words if you lie, you're rewarded, if you're honest and tell the truth, you're punished.

Both Michael Sam and Tim Tebow both represent the same thing, just on opposite ends of supposed moral scale.

But both made NFL mistake of being to honest about who they are.

In the meantime you can be as gay as you want, fornicate as much as you want, lie, cheat, steal, just keep it all under the carpet, and the NFL will give you a pass and sign you on to a deal.

Wow.

The reason why I don't watch NFL anymore has zero to do with politics or Kappernick

The reason why I don't watch NFL on TV anymore has zero to do with politics or Kapernick taking a bow on sideline during Anthem, or any other player taking a knee, as for as that goes.

Here is why I no longer make time to watch NFL

1. Getting older, the older I get, the less sports interests me, across the board, whether baseball, basketball ect.
As one ages, the hero's one once admired when younger don't seem so heroric anymore.

2. Adds and commercials, adds and commercials are written in a way that really insults the minds of the thinking. Time is short, and when not working, don't have time to waste 40-50% of TV viewing time on commercials.

3. Not enough games plastered on TV, like olden days, I remember when growing up, on Sunday, just about every channel had NFL game playing on it, you couldn't avoid the NFL on Sunday when had CBS, NBC, ABC and other such networks, but now days hard to find regular NFL game on TV, the NFL, like with Heavy weight boxing, has 'hidden' itself behind to many special channels, this package that package, in 2017, most peoples lives are just to busy to waste time searching for games, so instead settle for scores on AM/FM radio while driving.

4. In 2017, common people work more yet earn less, so off time is very precious, and if only have a few hours off work, before bed, other things take priority.


Talk radio hosts like Rush, Savage, ect, all attribute lower NFL viewership and game attendance to 'politics' (but of course they would, cause that's what they do, politicize all actions and behavior under the sun to fit their narrative of life and others)

But in reality, politics have very little to do with it, and someone grounded in real world would know this, which millionaire talk radio hosts are not.

In 2017, people just have a lot going on, so many more things to input from computers, Iphones and more.

People today have a microwave mentality, and sitting down for game, just doesn't fit that microwave mentality now days.

And it transfers over to other areas, for instance, hard for me to even sit down and watch a movie from beginning to end anymore, can't do it....instead it's like 5 minutes here, pause, 10 minutes there, pause, (while I go clean the kitchen), 4 minutes here, pause, as must start laundry, and so forth.

As you get older, just seems time moves faster (accept when at work doing what you hate, or in environment you hate, than time always goes slow)

In closing, my reasoning for not watching NFL anymore, or even paying attention to it has zero to do with politics or players taking the knee, I'm not that 'sissy', or sensitive.

Life is short, and I enjoy what I want to enjoy while can enjoy it, and if I was still into NFL and all, no one player, or a few players here or there, would detour me from watching.

But in my case, and probably millions of others, it's simply the stuff listed above and more.

Cure?

1. Cut back on commercials, in this day and age people simply lose interest after 3rd commercial that insults their intelligence...and go outside and start mowing the lawn.

2. Put NFL back on regular TV, where regular people can't help but stumble upon the games, but if keep hiding games in special packages and on cable, forget about it, who has time or money for that.

To be continued.

They need to investigate his girlfriend, cause it occurred as he returned to his house to grab his wallet, or something, which means the robbers thought he was leaving, and didn't expect him to suddenly re enter the house, while his girlfriend was in the car.

Someone tipped the robbers off that he'd be leaving.

I mean think about it, read the article and think about it, they jumped him only after he returned to the house, so like maybe they thought he was on to them, article says they jumped out the bushes near the front door.

Again, that means they new he was about to leave, and were waiting to rob his place with him gone, but when he got out of car and returned to go inside, the robbers must of panicked.

Who told the robbers that he was about to go on a date and leave?

They need to ask that lady some questions.

Women, the type rich men date or NFL guys date, often have shadowy figures that linger in their lives, and use said women to exploit others.

If wealthy, be careful the type of women you date.

NFL 2020/2021 is back!

NFL is back, and sorry, even though I generally support Trump, I still like me some NFL, but on my terms.

I'm actually more in it again, this year than have been for the last 5 or so?...why?

Cause of shortened season and certain dynamics, like todays games.

Actually only 1 game taking place today, Tom Brady vs Ken Newton, that's it, as the two try to prove which one still has it.

Newton playing on Brady's old team 'The Patriots', and Brady now with Tampa Bay, and trailing.

I do believe the Patriots are winning at last check.

And I don't see no politics in any of it, just old fashion competition, maybe cause I listen on the radio.

Sorry Levin, I love me some NFL, particularly this year, when I, others, need an escape more than other.
Ugly politics just don't cut it.

All these stuck on politics talk radio hosts, let them stay stuck on foul politics, but some of us want more.

Life is short, good times even shorter, and I'll be darned if going to let any partisan hack tell me what I should and shouldn't watch and or enjoy, they don't pay my bills, they don't check in on my well being, ever.

I don't need millionaire talk radio hosts telling me to not watch the NFL, as if they can fill that void...hell no, not only that, you no dam well when their shows are over, and home alone in their Estates, you no goodness well they're watch Today's games.



Update, Brady just threw second interception, now trailing the Saints like 7-21?..
