Re: Survey: Are you going to watch the Saints this season?

I for one, am awfully happy and satisfied, I was able to live the Saints Superbowl victory. One is all i need....seriously doubt there will ever be another one.... even if there is another one. It will never match up to the Saints victory over the Colts!!!

So, you are saying that you will not watch any NFL this season? Just need to know to make you the second to make that claim in this survey.

yeah....that is exactly what i am saying. BLM pphhffff....why support a predominantly black league, especially when they are making the mint, bling bling,,,, gold. As far as I am concerned, just a bunch of hypocrites and quite frankly, I am sure over 60% of the black players give a ****.

Re: Survey: Are you going to watch the Saints this season?

I won't be watching any NFL games this season.

But I'm curious. Why does this matter to you, 'Guido? Are you the official blackandgold hall monitor? Do you really believe people require your approval of their opinion? What do you gain from compiling this pointless list? You go around here claiming that nothing bothers you, and that you "just enjoy life", and yet nearly all of your time on this site is spent belittling others who have CLEARLY bothered you with their opinions. Otherwise, you'd be sitting there, quietly enjoying whatever it is you're doing, instead of whining and complaining about every dissenting opinion from your own.

And it's not like you're arguing something important. No one has challenged or insulted your faith, your politics, your family, or even you by stating an opinion on what will happen to NFL viewership. A simple "I disagree" followed by a quick summary as to why, would suffice. Instead, your narcissistic self needed your own thread about it.

Do you treat everyone around you this way?

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

I am just making a point, burningmetal, that a few of you refused to listen to. Three or four of you have insisted that the NFL would take a financial hit because of their political stance claiming basically that significant percentage of the normal viewership would tune out because of this stance.

What this thread is proving is that the same three or four members are the ONLY ones claiming that they would not watch football this year. This completely supports what I had been attempting to demonstrate though other means. If it makes you feel better personally if you tune out then fine. Good for you. But don't fall under the false assumption that it will have any material affect on the NFL's bottom line as the few of you have erroneously claimed.

That makes 2 definitely not watching, maybe 3.

Frydaddy Smurf could still watch with his fingers in his ears, I suppose.

Hmm, that's interesting. I don't remember making any comments recently about whether or not the league will take a financial hit. You're putting words in people's mouths, but, that's all semantics, because I can promise you the league WILL take a hit. To what extent? Well, now, that's a whole different conversation, isn't it? The fact that a lot of people will tune out, of course will have some financial impact. Is everyone going to stop watching? No. Will most stop watching? I doubt it.

I'll tell you what WILL ultimately bury the league, unless they change course: If they keep bowing to political correctness, from taking the physicality out of the game, to trying to dictate who gets hired, and who can say what, eventually there will be so much division that no one will want to work together, and the league will fold.

Want an example? Look around at the police officers who are walking off the job because of people telling them how to do their jobs and throwing them under the bus every time a CRIMINAL gets shot, even if the criminal provoked it. Political correctness destroys everything, and it WILL destroy the NFL, if they allow this to continue.

But you didn't answer my question. Why does this matter to you? You don't agree with people. Fine. So what? Why did this need to be it's own thread? I'll just answer for you: You can't get enough of yourself.

I made my own thread because I can. The fact that it gets your panties in a wad just shows that you have the problem. You were simply among the three or four people that said they would not watch the NFL. It may not have been you claiming all the financial impacts of your tiny minority, but you were included in the minuscule numbers.

What you fail to understand is that most people can intellectually separate entertainment from politics. When the whistle is blown the players can.

Enjoy your time away from the game. Like the old saying goes, "Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out."

Anyone CAN make a thread. That doesn't answer the question as to WHY you took a personal disagreement with what you've described as being only "3 or 4 posters" and made it into a thread. But that's alright, because everyone already knows the answer. You love attention.

The fact that I'm calling you out on it bothers you, and so you claim my "panties" are in a wad? Well isn't that hilariously hypocritical... Who was it that got HIS panties so wadded up about someone's opinion on what would happen to the NFL that he had to make a thread about it? Oh, wait, did you think you had the sole right to disagree on this board? You're making my point much more powerfully than I could have on my own. So thanks for that.

And let me make something clear to you: There is nothing "intellectual" about separating sports from politics, when sports BECOME political. Do you think people like me are not watching because we found out some of the players are Democrats? No, we're not watching because these spoiled little brats are hypocrites, crying racism as they rake in millions, while simultaneously proving that they, in fact, are racist. Silencing all thought that does not align with theirs, and demanding sympathy. I'm not entertained by that. When I think of entertainment, I think of an escape from politics and drama. That escape is gone.

You aren't bothered by any of that because you don't care. You have shifted your supposedly conservative views to align with theirs so that you can justify continuing to support them. I know that, because I observed it right here on this very board. I saw your shift in real time. Well, I'm not like you.

I've said things like this in the past, only to have certain posters accuse me of trying to elevate myself as some kind of heroic character. Which was confusing, considering all I did was give my opinion, and never demanded that anyone follow me. It's not a sacrifice I'm making. That would imply that I'm giving up something I love. I don't love the NFL anymore. And so the choice is easy. So before people like you go on a rant about things you don't know about me, again, let that fact be known. This is not a sacrifice by me.

So with that said, I'm not sure why you feel the need to rub my decision in my face, and tell me I'm part of the "tiny minority". I'm not interfering with your precious football time. You can have it. You can have all of it. I can't express to you how much I don't care what you watch. It is you who seemingly feels that you deserve some award for NOT discontinuing your fandom. You seem to have equated your commitment to football, to actually being a better person than me, and others who won't be watching. That's really quite pathetic.
