I have been considering this for a while, but I am giving up on the NFL. We have a ton of idiot players, in this league
raping, beating, and would be gangster's in prison; or will be someday. The coach and owners are so corrupt now, they
could give the Senate lessons, on how to be corrupt. The NFL Brass have zero honor, anymore.

Does this mean that you are "done" with the NFL and posting on football message boards or are you just blowing off steam?jackal wrote:I have been considering this for a while, but I am giving up on the NFL. We have a ton of idiot players, in this league

Re: I'm done
Really, you see no difference in someone saying that they are done with something (and mean it and stick by that proclamation) or someone that is just blowing off steam and will continue watching the NFL when things "cool off"PurpleMustReign wrote: What difference does it make?

I do, I just wondered why you asked him. Maybe it is my mood, but it seemed like you were being snobby toward him. If I was wrong, I apologize.

Re: I'm done
I think he was being a bit snobby, but I had similar thoughts so it's hard for me to fault him. We saw a bunch of posts like this when Adrian got in trouble, and most were just blowing off steam. Jackal seems to have picked a time where it's easier to believe him, but people don't usually give up something they're this passionate about, and when they do, they usually just disappear.
Re: I'm done
I think players got away with way more back in the day than they do now because a lot of players illegal actions weren't even covered as much by then.

Re: I'm done
Players were just as bad in the 60's and 70's. You can think social media for the magnification.
Are you referring to the Patriots deflating footballs as corrupt? I hope not.

Re: I'm done
I actually think there is less that happens today and more being made out of what does take place. Back in the older days athletes were given a lot of free passes. Doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Re: I'm done
maybe its the social media ... making it seem so much worse
hearing about the new scandal with New England again ??
really rubbed me the wrong way ...
I hate both of these teams so I really don't care who wins the SB
I was hoping Indy or the Cardinals might go but other than that
there wasn't a playoff team I want to see win this year maybe Bengals
but again its one and done for the bengals
