Sponsors' money is why they play any of these games anymore.

I should be outraged over this PC bullshit but I just don't give a damn. Fuck you NFL...

The sound of empty seats jeering.
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

If this plandemic has shown us only one thing, it's that we can get along just fine without professional sports

"Plandemic," eh? I think I like that better than the term I've been using: Scamdemic.

Remember how bland everything Soviet was? Remember how grateful we were to have the flash and excitement of corporate competition and sponsorship lacing our culture? Now we are being subjected to Soviet style generic titles and product revisions. Aunt Jemima will be Comrade’s Choice syrup substitute. Uncle Ben’s will be Likeitornot instant rice product. Imagine the innocuous labels. Everyone must wear gray.

Washington has some of the worst attendance in the league.
79.9 percent for home games. 3rd from the bottom. Few teams have sold out last year. This year financial losses will be staggering.
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Until 4 years ago, I was a huge Dallas Cowboys fan, since 1970. I really never liked, nah - make that - I hated the Redskins.
But I enjoyed the Cowboys - Redskins rivalry greatly. This name change thing is a bunch of c--p!
Sad, really sad...

They should just call the team the LGTBQ's. Gain a whole new fanbase.

OK. And then what? And then what? And then what? And then what? And then what? And then what? And then what? And then what? . . . Ad infinitum.
"THEY" (regardless of color, creed, religion, sexual/gender orientation, or origin) will NEVER be happy. What do "THEY" want? WORLD DOMINATION with the extinction of everything Whitey??
Ain't gonna happen...
