I've changed my mindset and I'm coming back
I'll keep this short but decided to post since it's a slow time of year - I'll be back as a Saints fan for 2018 and beyond. Last year I wrote my blog, and while I stand by what I wrote, I've had a change in mindset and approach. I came to the realization that being anywhere near political issues, no matter which 'side' I land on, makes me feel miserable. I'm going back to not voting, not caring and being apolitical again as I did early in my adult life. Have not and will not be looking at the Political forum section from here on out.
Politics is a zero-sum game, and I pull for the Saints for entertainment and a bit of inspiration. Going to ignore all the political melodrama this year and focus in on what happens between the whistles. That said, I'm still quite unlikely to put any money into Saints viewership or merch until Goodell is washing dishes at a Shoney's somewhere. |

Re: I've changed my mindset and I'm coming back
Welcome back, although my political views are differ from some and they're no way to open people eyes to my liberal and humane point of views ,,,,some issues, I try to stick with saints topics till it go far too the conservative that I feel it is offensive. I am sure the topic of football will continue to become more political with the new policy, maybe it won't! Still I am glad to see you back for our 2nd super bowl Lombardi run

Welcome back. I think everyone in the sports world is starting to realize that sports and politics go together like oil and water. I am ready to get back to some football and not all the other bs.

Re: I've changed my mindset and I'm coming back
It's always good to be involved and engaged, just be willing to constantly re-evaluate your position with thorough reflection -
...never doubting it and never backing down from a worthwhile query and discussion...No man is an island, Entire of itself, Every man is a piece of the continent, A part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less. As well as if a promontory were. As well as if a manor of thy friend's Or of thine own were: Any man's death diminishes me, Because I am involved in mankind, And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee. - John Donne |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
