Opinions are kind of like your private parts. It’s quite OK to have one, and to be even very proud and happy about it. Just please don’t insist in waving it in all of our faces, because many of us would rather you keep it to yourself.
“Presenting any so-called fact-based evidence contradicting my steadfast and absolute beliefs shall be deemed as heresy ..” Sounds like the virulent objections to Darwin’s take on evolution in the mid 19th century … when will people grow up??
Every game on my TV is watched in silence, because I have muted the sound. I can see and follow what’s going on without any annoying commentary, thank you very much.

Stuff him and mount him on the wall as an example of a sheer idiot. Or better yet, as there are so many like him, perhaps a kind of Madame Tussauds’ for Fools.
There is a pervasive world-view that has bled over from politics to every area, including sports, that any viewpoint expressed that might challenge one’s own, is heretical and, not only wrong, but evil.
The so-called aggrieved shouldn’t be mad that their neighbors for some wholly imagined meaningless slight.
Like in The Wizard of Oz, “Ignore the man behind the curtain!” Why? What is he doing back there?He is ROBBING YOU, he is robbing your family and friends, he is also robbing the people you don’. And he is using the GOP as the gun to your head. Turning you against your friends, your family, your neighbors…
Why, in God’s name, WHY?
Profits, plain and simple, protect the profits, increase the profits and KEEP IT ALL FOR THEMSELVES! They serve their evil master GREED, they worship it like you worship Jesus, who by the way doesn’t want YOU to act like a hate filled jerk!
For nearly half a century the GOP has worked tirelessly to ROB YOU of nearly 50 TRILLION DOLLARS, a series of illegitimate GOP president pushed through each of their administration’s massive tax cuts for only the very, very wealthy.
We were promised that it would “Trickle Down”, hell, I’ve been waiting 45 years and haven’t seen a PENNY. Instead, they hoarded it all for themselves. Made us a nation of renters instead of living the American dream! Right now, how many of you are priced out of the housing market/. How many of us are stuck with greedy landlords who raise the rent every year while our wages haven’t kept up with reality?How many of our children will inherit nothing but our hospital and credit card debts when we die, instead of a trust fund for some real estate.
So some rich piece of S**T can have a third vacation home or yet another Porsche?That’s where it’s going, people, doesn’t it make you really mad?
So they blow the dog whistles to distract you, Replacement, Immigrants, OMG gays! While they pick your pocket and steal your best girl with a flashy car. They want to destroy education so your children won’t be able to think critically and see the truth behind all their lies. And let’s be real here, they aren’t even that good, they’ve been playing the same tired notes for years
As a longtime Forty-Niner fan I find myself in the strange position of having to root for the Cowboys here. If the Niners, Cowboys and Eagles all end the season with the same record, the Niners will be the highest placed because they own the tie breaker against both of those teams having beaten them both by the combined score of 84 – 29.
Back in the Dark Ages, the penalty for disagreeing out loud with the established religion was burning at the stake. Wretched as today’s pathetic imitation of reasoned discourse might be, it does represent progress of a sort.
People do get to wrapped up in their team of choice. I love all (almost) Texas based teams. The other teams are just entertainment for me. However, if you don’t like my teams you are welcome to your own opinion as long as you are not trying to brow beat me.
I loved reading this from last to first panel. Video Instant Replay for infractions is tough to use when you blur the players faces and identifiers so the refs can use it against them.
