Thats a good take. Just as the aggrieved players claim we "arent hearing them," I dont know that you're really seeing the pattern here. This is truly a silent majority.

I totally get you. Believe me. For most of my life, I could have imagined living without a ding dong, before I could fathom doing without football. I never understood how people in other periods of history could ever be truly happy, without Football in their lives. Other people may get emotional remembering the song where they first kissed their Love. I get emotional hearing the Monday Night Football theme.

Now, i'm in need of a trip to Goodwill, as half of my wardrobe, Saints logo, is now obsolete. I'm not opposed to wearing it, but it just makes me so damn sad. I have a youtube channel, where I played the git tire. Saints stuff covers the background. Every other picture of me, every other thing in my garage, my floor mats, the cups at work, which dont need my name. Everyone knows who the Marques Colston stadium cup belongs to. My freakin business card! Black and gold with Solemnity Font. My
trademark helicopter silhouette with embedded Fleur de Lis. My road games, tail gates, crawfish parties with a ridiculous presence of b&g. Training camps, draft parties, and my Superdome grooms cake at my 3rd wedding. Guess what colors my tux was?

I feel like I've lost my best friend. sort of. But then I realize this friend
doesnt like me. Well, you, since im not actually "white." You dont say someone else is "privileged" unless you resent them. When you dislike an entire group of people because of their skin, thats called, guess what?
Racism. I've always hated racism. I've been a target, myself. My first idol was OJ Simpson. I know many great Law enforcement officers, who do not deserve the blanket slander. My cousins fought communists, which is what that POS Kaepernick is, in the jungles of SE Asia, under that Flag, as did a number of ancestors.

I know I know, Im "not understanding, blah blah fu**ng blah." You know what? They dont understand the Confederate Battle Flag's real meaning, nor Aunt Jemima, but damn, if they're not offended. Well, partner, this sh*t offends me. And I'm your customer. You wont feel it at first, until your media starts feeling revenue loss, and believe me (I work in Media) every Nielson Point is a buttload of cash. When tv starts to feel the pinch, sooner than later, the gravy train will start to derail. I dont know... Maybe I'm wrong. Dont care. Football happens in the Fall, when its most beautiful on the Gulf Coast. I didnt miss it in '17, or whenveer Kapersh*t was doing his ignorant carp. I dont think I'm alone.

I've said before, Im coming back here, to chat with friends, and enjoy some of the humor, drama, and intrigue. And I've stated my case. You can disagree, and we're still friends.

btw, I think I've figured out why you have some haters... your avatar looks like Father Guido is saying something sarcastic. its perfect, actually. He needs to wear a #19, though. You're old enough to know why.

Keep rockin!
