Personally, I don't give a fuck, let the rich little whiner brats starve for all I care.
But of course, I have a question. :biggrin:

What will the league do to repair itself next year? They backed a Marxist movement they knew was thinly disguised as anti-racist, when they knew it was in fact, an anti American movement.
So will they concede they were fools, or run with the same failed bull shit? For me? There needs to be recompense, they need to do more than simply apologize.
Thoughts?


The Big 10 Officially Votes To Cancel The Football Season




The Big Ten is expected to cancel the 2020 college football season in a historic move that stems from concerns related to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, multiple people with knowledge of the decision told the Free Press.

"It's done," one high-ranking source in the Big Ten said Monday afternoon.

Sources said the presidents were in agreement Sunday to end fall sports in the conference. Michigan and Michigan State — which both have physicians as presidents — were among the schools in favor of ending the fall seasons, sources said.

NFL will not hold live national anthem performances in 2020 due to COVID-19, per report

The ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is expected to severely limit, if not eliminate, fan attendance at NFL games during the 2020 season, but fans won't be the only ones forced to experience game days outside of the stadium. According to Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports, the NFL will not hold any live performances of the national anthem before games this season, and the league could also reduce the presence of military and police honor guards.

This isn't expected to be the only change to anthem protocol in 2020. ESPN previously reported that the NFL also plans to play "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing," traditionally known as the Black anthem, ahead of every Week 1 game across the league. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has also publicly encouraged players to peacefully protest social injustice this year; most protesting players in recent years have used some form of demonstration during the anthem to raise awareness of issues like racism and police brutality.

I will be very disappointed if we have no college football. However, I have felt this was coming when one thinks about it. The teams have taken precautions, but they can only do so much. We are dealing with 18-22 virile males getting ready to mingle with other students. We have seen how that age group has behaved during the pandemic. They are going to be 18-22 years olds. This is also another punch in the gut for our economy. College football is an economic mover throughout the country.

I think college needs the money they get from foot ball.

But the NFL can go to Hell.   The NFL cost the taxpayers for each game they play.

It is simple: don't watch those sports. Find other sports to enjoy. And, if they pull the same stunts, don't watch them.
With all these lawyers with cameras on the street i'm shocked we have so much crime in the world.

There is constitutional law and there is law and order. This challenge to law and order is always the start to loosing our constitutional rights.

Frauditors are a waste of life.

Not  completely  cancelled. Its a good  issue for  trump to run on in the  midwestern states where  it  is  cancelled. Meanwhile, The  playoffs will go on for  now.

And the  schools that  cancelled will still have intramural sports. They did it to hurt trump but they will really  hurt themselves.
