Re: And It Begins... Players Opting Out

Humans a flawed. Some are flawed more than others. It doesn't surprise me that some players will be either idiots or simply be ignorant based on ideology, so shutting games/ teams down should be factored in how sports seasons progress. They should have, and probably did account for a percentage of ...

Re: Masks are required for fans

My suggestion would be don't put yourself at risk. IMHO masks are useless in a scenario like this. A self preservation tactic requires one to stay away. “We don’t live in our fears.” “We choose to live in stupidity, instead.” :lol: That would be another Mike Tomlin quote for the bingo card

Re: What if there is no 2020 season?

Sooo the NFL offers the NFLPA to play zero preseason games. I’m thinking that will happen and the teams can have a long drawn out “camp” to prepare for the season. Many players have always thought the preseason is dumb; they will finally get their wish. Big hit on revenue though considering the cas...

Yeah, CK is struggling to stay relevant. That's why he turned that tryout into a circus last year. I don't think he has any interest in returning to the NFL, and in a few more years when everyone else realizes this he will be forgotten. Forgotten? By then he will likely be the Mayor of Oakland, Ca ...

The Times Are A Changin' with a good ol' boy like Brett Favre giving accolades to Colin Kepernick.
I think it's interesting that with all the #metoo and other activism going on that what Favre did to his trainer essentially gets whitewashed and he's still held in high regard.
