Too many teams, which means too many bad teams. Rotten owners that only care about how much money they make, I’m speaking of the McCaskeys that own the Bears & Jimmy Haslam who owns the Browns. Atrocious officiating, with part-time amateur officials instead of full time ones, who then call back obvious touchdowns, due to the insane replay officials hundreds of miles away. Then the games go on forever, when 40 years ago, the ones that went more than 2 hours 45 minutes were the exception. Now a game that ends under 3 hours 30 minutes is a miracle! And I don’t care if players kneel during the national anthem [which is a terrible anthem anyway, the anthem should be America the Beautiful, which is about all of America, not one silly battle in a stupid war that never should’ve happened], the players don’t hurt me, football or America. Infact they show the strength of America!
What I find most interesting about the kneeling flap is the player’s reaction to the fan’s reaction. The players deliberately choose an action to shock and antagonize people in order to grab their attention. Surprise surprise people are shocked and antagonized. What do the antagonized people do, they retaliate (whoa didn’t see that coming). Now the players pout because the owners don’t particularly want them around because the public (rightly or wrongly doesn’t matter) is bringing pressure on the owners who make their living by putting butts in seats on game day.
