Yeah really. Walking away from these dread-locked, overpaid, thugs is easy-peasy. In fact I derive great pleasure in watching America flush them the toilet... like the pieces of s*** they are.

I can’t wait to hear the excuses they come up with, to explain declines in attendance and TV ratings this season.

Among those from last year.

1. The sunny side of the 49ers stadium gets so hot, that nobody wants to sit there.

2. The LA Chargers temporary home in a 27,000 seat soccer stadium is holding down attendance averages.

3. TV ratings and attendance were down around Thanksgiving, because so many people were traveling for the holiday.

4. Ratings and attendance dropped later in the season, because so many people were Christmas shopping.

5. Ratings and attendance were down late in the season because so many teams were out of playoff contention.

6. Bad weather in many cities held down attendance, especially later in the season, there was supposedly unusually cold and rainy/snowy game days.

They came up with many such reasons, so that they could exclude the elephant in the room of the NFL player protests as turning off fans.

It has been for me.

No human being on Earth loved pro football more than me — the game not any particular team. I have been an avid fan since 1969 and LIVED for football season. Even preseason football was cause for me to celebrate and set the hours of my life aside to watch even 4th stringers try to make the team. That goes back to when they called it exhibition season.

The decision of the players to flip me and all I hold dear the big bird was the same as a woman I love deeply cheating on me in front of my face.

You have no idea the pain I had the last 2 seasons and continue to have. Nothing can really plug the hole in my heart that is left from not being able to watch and analyze football games.

Something dear and precious has been stolen from me. By self-important millionaire crybabies I helped make and a league which has aided and abetted.
