Long post, lots of good stuff (of course) mostly the NFL Vs. PDJT

1st Amendment fools come in all shapes, sizes and ages


Well-known constitutional scholars Terry Bradshaw, who it was once said of: he couldn’t spell dog if you spotted him the d and the g, bitterly disappointed Meatchicken head coach Jim Harbaugh, the NFL player’s rep and the old fool above have all indicated that the players making boobs of themselves by taking a knee during the National Anthem is a 1st Amendment issue.

To all who say trashing the Anthem and America is a 1st Amendment right, I agree. Now try this, go to work tomorrow and walk into the lunch and call everyone in there a N-word or N-word lover.  When they come to fire your dumbazz, tell them you were just exercising your 1st Amendment rights.  See how that works out for you.

The 1st Amendment guarantees that you have the right to say and do pretty much any stupid thing you want.  Exhibit one: 99.99999% of politicians.  The 1st Amendment does not guarantee you the right to be heard or there would 3,000,000,000 subscribers to this pages.  The 1st Amendment does not guarantee that everyone has to agree with you or Lex would be king of the world. Most importantly, the 1st Amendment does not guarantee that there will not be consequences for your speech.  If you call everyone in the lunchroom the N-word, you might get an azz whippin’ before you get fired.

As far as I know, no one, from PDJT to Lex, has ever even once said that it is against the law (i.e. unconstitutional) for a douche bag to act like a douche bag by being a bore during the National Anthem.  The point PDJT was making, and that I’d make, is that the boss has the right to fire douche bags for being douche bags – see the lunchroom example.  

Only the NFL can kill the NFL - so they will
The NFL is like the once great state of CA.  They won’t learn until they go broke and the place is a $h!thole.  Then they’ll double down.  The NFL is going to die a very slow and excruciating death as the grandees dance all around the key issues kowtowing to PC BS without ever addressing what’s wrong.  Lefty Lib attacks on an alpha male experience - lambasting hunting, NASCAR, combat roles, golf clubs, football etc.  Nothing is sacred to these a-holes.
  
Goodell Vs. Trump – I’ll take PDJT
Before taking on PDJT, Roger Goodell should talk to the 18 Republicans who ran for the Republican Presidential Nomination and their legion of know-it-all advisors who declared PDJT’s campaign dead 10 seconds after his famous escalator ride.  18 or so seasoned political pros and their advisors of 100s of campaigns all fell like the last leaves of fall to a new comer who wanted the job so bad he wasn’t willing to spend all that much money to get it or hire a single seasoned political advisor.

This Anthem issue breaks about 25 percentage points in PDJT’s favor.  The NFL is already in trouble with fans.  To correct that the NFL has decided to wear pink next month to attract a demographic that has never given a crapola about it and more less loathes it while doing everything possible to PO its long-standing most supportive demographic. 
  
And if Goodell doesn’t trust the 18 dispatched Republican primary losers, ask Shrillda the Hutt.  That idiot dumped 1.3 billion dollars just to get her ample azz whipped.  She too had all the MSM, Hollywood, music, entertainment and sports figures on her side – just like the Anthem kneelers.  By 9 p.m. on 8 Nov, they were all on suicide watch where they have remained ever since.

I don’t get it.  The NFL players have an absolute right to make azzes of themselves by kneeling during the National Anthem.  That’s “free speech”” and all that, right, but somehow PDJT commenting on the NFL players taking knee is out of bounds. “Shut up!” they explained.  No free speech for you, PDJT.


I’ll take the flag, the country and PDJT against pampered millionaires and elites.  I still haven’t noticed many, if any, of these so-called Social Justice Warriors voting with their feet.  The only places they are voting with feet is by leaving the $h!thole neighborhoods they grew up in, 98% of which are in Demo-Dope controlled urban areas.

As stated in a post under somewhere, I’m not saying that NFL and other pro sport athletes protesting America should get out.  I’m just saying that if America were the crap hole they claim it to be, it’s just odd that so few have taken the necessary steps to protect themselves and their families by leaving the place they claim is a racist crap hole.

Weird that these multi-millionaires won’t take a few pennies of their earnings to move their families out of the hell hole they call America.  Same with Revs Al, Jess, Jerry et al, why aren’t they raising money to re-locate all of these long-suffering mino families to the Venezuelan paradise from what the Revs rail against as hot beds of racism - again 98% of which are in Demo-Dope controlled urban areas.

Idiot NFL Commish, Roger Goodell, released this statement:

 “The NFL and our players are at our best when we help create a sense of unity in our country and our culture. There is no better example than the amazing response from our clubs and players to the terrible natural disasters we’ve experienced over the last month.

“Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities.”
  
“[L]ack of respect for the NFL”?  Hell yeah Rog.  You’re damn straight there’s a lack of respect.  Look at the stands.  Look at the TV rating.  Oh, and you’re a weasel by hiding behind JJ Watt’s hurricane relief efforts. 

Rog!  Wakeup the league is falling apart on your watch!
   

Jersey purchase


If you are the type that likes to wear clothes with another man’s name on it, consider purchasing a
Alejandro Villanueva Pittsburg Steeler’s jersey.  Villanueva was the lone Steeler to stand, hand over heart for the National Anthem.  The rest of the players stayed in the locker room.  One time good guy, Coach Mike Tomlin gently chastised Villanueva, saying he’d hoped the team would stay together.  Well so much for the free speech argument.

I made the comment about wearing clothes with another man's name on it one time and Lex jr. pointed out that I wore a Dale Earnhardt jr. jacket. My response was, “That’s only because Earnhardt wears a Doug Schumick jacket.”

I may buy a Villanueva jersey and hang it in the barn as a sign of support.  Ms. Lex is going to love shelling out $100 for jersey to hang in the barn.  Maybe I’ll just give the money to Samaritan’s purse in Villanueva’s name.     


Antifa explained



Okay, I admit I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer.  Stupid things make me laugh.  I was perusing the interweb Sat A.M. and ran across this.  The post is innocuous enough, but scroll down to the comments.  It gets downright hilarious.  That’s where I found the antifa pic above. 



Football games need to be no longer than two-and-a-half hours
I went to an IU football game Saturday. It took 40 minutes to play the first 5 minutes of the 1st quarter.  Football should consider going to a running clock like in soccer.  The game will be stopped for injuries and 3 time outs per half.  An injured player will be out for 20 minutes of the running clock and will be carried over between halves, games and seasons. No there’s still a play clock, huddles, if desired, but no out of bounds stoppages, no incomplete pass stoppages, no stoppages for penalties etc. Play for 90 minute halves and F-ING play football.  The refs are part of the game and will make mistakes.  So will players and coaches.  Too damn bad.  These things tend to even out over a season.  Suck it up and play.

If you are going to insist on reviews, limit them to last two minutes on plays that matter.  If the score is 52-3 in the last two minutes, nothing gets reviewed. 

Ahh, Lex what about advertisers? If paly doesn’t stop there can be no TV ads.  That’s the point.  And the advertisers aren’t going to reach anyone if no one is watching anyway, so...  Next, somehow soccer survives with a running clock and is more popular than American football – something I’ll never understand. They can make advertising by running crawls and split-screen ads and the announcer saying, “this quarter brought to by McDonald’s. It’s finger lickin’ good.”



McCain axes Robertscare repeal
Anyone who is surprised by John McCain’s latest betrayal of party and country is still waiting for the day the sun rises in the west.  McCain put his dislike for PDJT ahead of the country.  It’s that simple.  He claims it is about procedure.  BS.  This Caligula, D.C. ruling class swamp creature has been running the country into the ground from Caligula, D.C. for 30 years.  He’s promised to repeal Robertscare for 7 ½ tears.  Procedure my big butt.  It’s all about PDJT.  McCain is all about McCain.  GO home John.

Love watching football. I don't watch pregame now. If game starts at 1pm I tune in somewhere in first quarter. I will not be attending any games in person now. What happens when the fans catch up to all this? I don't know. In Buffalo yesterday the fans booed loudly. Lex covered the lone Steeler yesterday. Just like white belts and mood rocks this will fade away. I wonder about the NBA Utah Jazz team. I have been to one of their games. Good fan base and well supported but if this team takes their knees I suspect these fans will take a hike. As Lex mentioned, next month the players will be wearing pink, some taking a knee, ESPN trying to be relevant and losing veiwers, NFL stepping from one cow pie into the next one, and NFL fans saying....just shut up and play ball. Playing the game is why people tune in. Mind the product or suffer the consequences.
