Oops?

Blah, blah, blah. Groupthink and being an asshole to fit in is not unique to sports. What sports did the Nazis play, maybe it was too much bowling?

Correlation =\= Causation. Sports don’t make people evil, it’s just that evil people like sports too... And sports that reward violence make sociopaths look more normal vs their peers.  

Detroit is known for their ass eaters. Buffalo sticks to butt chugging, table smashing, and BJ-for-jersey exchanges. It’s an easy mistake to make.

You mean Detroit, right?

High balls!

And some people like cucumbers pickled.

Not much of this makes any sense. Is this a PR stunt?

What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.

I said “lite” didn’t I? It’s all rooted in misogyny and subjugating women under the guise of religious righteousness. Honor killings are bad and so are misguided, backwards social policies. Be smarter.

You know what’s weak? The religious right in this country pretending they are anything but the Taliban-lite.

Huh, I thought the Falcons were pretty good at letting shit slip away?

Hopefully anywhere but Atlanta!

Yeah, the owners were happy to limit their risk. The goal was to keep the bottom 2/3+ of the players under paid. The owners knew they would have to pay more, they just wanted to minimize it. Just like middle America supports tax breaks for the rich because they might become rich someday and don’t want to get screwed…

*ah, there’s the rub.

Are, there’s the rub are, there’s the rub. The owners butter up the vets, and offer them enough to keep them appeased. Meanwhile, the rest of the players get the short end of the stick while the veteran run union can still claim a victory for the players. It’s a complicated scam.

Agreed. I was piling on, not disputing.

I didn’t say we own it/started it.

I’m not disagreeing. I’m saying it’s deeper than just the NFL.

Nah, this is par for the course. “I got mine, so fuck you” is an age-old American tradition, as is old White dudes getting those less fortunate than themselves to act against their own best interests.
