Monday Night Football is an interesting phenomenon. The whole country tunes in to ABC or ESPN for it, with no other games played simultaneously. You have almost 70 million people in the general living areas of the 8 teams of the NFC East & South + millions more in their NFC conference, and just...

Not long ago the Green Bay Packers were one of the top teams in the NFL. This year, they, together with the 2020 Super Bowl winning Tampa Bay Buccaneers, have a mediocre record of just 7 & 8. The 2021 Super Bowl champion Rams are just 5 & 10. This goes to show how devastating it can be when...

NFL teams are envious of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for having the GOAT Tom Brady + an impressive set of receivers. What the Bucs don't get envy for, is their schedule in 2022. Of the 14 teams * the Bucs will face, eight of them have winning records, and have a combined 2021 record of 102 wins and...

...and folds like a cheap suit. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/roger-goodell-pens-letter-to-nfl-teams-regarding-anthem-protests/ LOL. Too little, too late, I'm thinking. He allowed the players to open Pandora's Box, and I don't think he can close it again.

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20980456/roger-goodell-sends-letter-nfl-teams-wants-players-stand-national-anthem Oh, the humanity. The tragedy of it all. Having to stand while your country's national anthem is played. That’s the sort of fascist thing that only happens in . .. every other...
