“the cynical commercialisation of the sport, its cultish celebration of violence and the more subtle ways in which football warps our societal attitudes about race, gender and sexual orientation.”

LOL. That is not a “football fan” (except the commercialization piece. That’s gotten out of hand.). The rest is just BS.

No amount of negative reporting on the NFL affects their ratings.

You could have players as members of ISIS and it wouldn’t matter .

And taxpayers will still be forced to build billionaire owners their stadiums.
