I have been a Steelers fan since 1966, but no more.

The problem is, some of us just had to tune in initially anyway, to see what the jackasses would do real-time.

Now that the NFL has broken that paradigm, fans might leave in droves.

Association Football (Soccer)North, South and Central American, European and yes, even women's, is available all over cable almost 24/7/365. It is growing in popularity here and may just be the antidote for American withdrawal pangs from the NFL. Continuous action, no time outs and no commercials during the play.

I have posted my Ranger Creed shirt and the burning m lynch Jersey. I read the E in the ranger creed. This is what #villanueva swore to his ranger brothers. Rangers lead the way!

When the Steelers won the Super Bowl, the first words out of Art Rooney’s mouth was thanking Obama.

Diary Management, Inc. I’d like to see how they’d be boycotted.

These people have no clue what they are doing! They’re just trying to be “cool” and “in with the in-crowd” like a bunch of 12 year olds! The term “sheeple “ is very apropos.

“I think a lot of that happened during the baseball strike. People realized they could live without MLB and didn’t come back.”

That is what happened to me back in the 90’s. I haven't looked back. I would rather do something than sit in front of a TV watching overpaid entitled creeps playing a child's game.

NFL may actually be done. A lot of people leave and discover there is life after football.

No kidding. I remember one time in about the mid-90s being at a conference in Detroit and a bunch of us went out for dinner one night. We didn't know each other previously and talk shifted around to a lot of subjects including sports. I remember someone asking me about baseball and I said, no... I used to be an avid fan but had given it up. One of the fellows said he was curious as to why... I thought about it and it was the baseball strike... never watched it again after the strike. Got busy doing other things and they turned out to be far more interesting. I can see that this is the same thing only far worse. My football consumption was already trending closer to zero but now I'll guarantee it will be zero.
