If someone today begins a pack a day cigarette habit they should have no recourse anywhere in their future should they become ill as a result. Same if you decide to pursue a football career.
not that i think this is a bad post. i don't.

but i find it odd how people seem to automatically get behind the owners as opposed to the talent that people watch. almost always fans take managements side.

players can know what they are getting into and sign a waiver to not sue. but why can't the insanely rich owners take care of the players, who make them rich btw? why does that liabilty end after 5 years or whatever it is?

thankfully the players have a union that can navigate that.

Still not as bad as "I refuse a portion of my profits for no valid reason." - Business owners who used to show NFL games and now refuse to due to anthem protests.

That penalty on Gilchrist in the Packers / Raiders game- fuck me! And it's that same joke ass bitch ref that called the Colts game.

F this game, F it to hell.

And as for the "same guy that watches every game" thoughts, my interest and my viewing habits have been waning during the Goodell era, they are at an all time low now- I cannot stomach this shit- it's not even football, I don't know what the fuck it is besides shit.
