Cowboys v Redskins on Monday night football.

This weekend, the Giants were greatly offended. The Titans were greatly offended.

Should be a good game -- Cowboys v Redskins.

Most times, one who is 'offended' is a minority who is making noise. The majority placates them and gives in just to shut them up or out of fear of being labeled 'racist', 'sexist', etc.

The problem is that their being 'offended' is a political tactic. They claim being 'offended' because it can result in a change they desire, but they know they would not win by a show of hands (votes).

Well I’m offended at:

The amount of illgals entering our country and not working, yet getting things that we have spend our lives working for.

I don’t like the “headgear” of some people that enter our country and think we need to do what they want, when they want it, and how they want it.

How our government leaders are so stupid and everyone with any common sense can see it, yet there are those who keep kissing their a$$s to keep them in office.

I could go on, but you get the picture, yes I am offended everyday, but it doesn’t seem to matter because we are Americans and they have to have it ‘their’ way.

It’s OK to offend people, just not liberals.

I’m offended by constantly having to hear about football.

...well, I’m offended that you’re offended by football...and I’m further offended that I had to go to the trouble of being offended in the first place...

...whatever, it’s somebody’s fault, and that somebody offends me...

...glad I got that out of my system...such an offensive thing to have to live with...
