If you google “rectal syphilis” and go to “images” you'll see things that you wish you hadn't.Photos of that sort surely won't be seen at your typical “Pride” event.

OMG the NFL has a death wish. They don’t want to make money anymore.

When pro football goes, college football will soon follow. College players play for the chance to make it in the NFL, not for love of old State U.

I sure hope college football doesn’t go down this road!

It has. The NCAA and another conference pulled games out of North Carolina over the laws requiring men to use the men's room.

Fans watch sports for relaxation and entertainment. Social issues have no place in sports. If these people want to protest, they can get a permit and protest on the street.
I will not watch a professional football game if the team owner allows players to disrespect the American flag or
protest about social issues during a football game!

NFL is determined to self-immolate; they’ve lurched from supporting racist, anti-American fools like Kaepernick and Michael Bennett to catering to homosexuals, who make up less than 1.7% of the population.

Doesn’t matter, conservative in the South will never give up college ball, so the attack on our values on the networks will continue.

I was just today trying to explain to my 90 year old Aunt on what is happening with Professional Sports today in regard to it veering left in so many things.

She used to be a big Cowboys fan and I informed her today we won't be watching much pro football this season, if any.

This morning I read that the St. Louis Cardinals intend to have a trans-gender person throwing out the first pitch next week on “Pride Night” at Busch Stadium and now I read of “Pride” whatever for the NFL.

Lets face it professional sports must want to alienate their fan base to appease a small group of people.

When I was growing up I lived for the NFL and AFL football on Sunday's. My father and I loved it and when Monday Night Football came in we loved that too.

That being said, Dad died last December and my football enthusiasm kind of died with him. Add to that the games are way too long, too many DAMN commercials, too many replays, too many penalties challenged,too many games on, too much Politics being injected into the game, and Leftist Politics at that.

So, as many of you, I have had my fill of all of it. There is only so much the NFL, MLB, etc. can try to force down your throat and I think that moment has arrived.

I am tired of the disrespect to our country, our Flag, and our way of life by overpaid morons, who if they could not play football, would be lucky to be Ditch Diggers.

My personal feeling is that ratings and viewership for the product of the NFL will down again this year, hopefully markedly so. They won't be able to blame it on the election like last year.

If it becomes a trend then guess what the values of all those franchises start going down and the next TV contracts will go for less money. Peak NFL has happened.

Professional and college sports are dead to me. High school sports will soon join them with all the XYs competing as XXs. Pee Wee sports where no one loses is also on the way out.

Interesting, I just relaunched my pride initiative, AMERICA PRIDE and one of its major aspects is to shun Anti American attitudes and practices no matter who or where. Adios Mr. NFL! I would hope that many Americans join in the shunning and all these self righteous America hating and immoral pricks who are millionaires only because of some inherent physical skill find themselves in the unemployment line.
