But what they didn’t tell you is that an economic boom was emerging.

Which the sleazy Democrats will then shamelessly take credit for and the average low-info and short-memoried American voter will gobble-up it up hook, line and sinker.

Well played Dems. Well played.

While you’re fundamentally not wrong about a simple game’s overinflated importance in the overall scheme of things, you’re also obviously missing that the word “fan” comes from “fanatic”.

That’s not a new dynamic in sports and “fanatics” for better or worse, are what gives sports a lot of its juice. The pure irrationality is a big part of what makes it fun and an escape for many from the stresses and demands of their personal lives.

The SEC is an extremely high-level of quality college football but the “fan”atics are what truly makes the SEC the SEC.

So of course there’s going to be irrational, overblown, emotional behaviors on virtually a week to week basis ….because we are talking about fans.

Absolute worthless collection of charlatans.

They’re headed exactly where Jerrah’s golden touch has put them most of these past 30 years:

Usually hovering around .500. Never good enough to be a real serious threat, never bad enough to force a complete overhaul.

Once in awhile a random streak of fortune that will see them end with a good season record and a playoff berth but always a quick one game exit once the playoffs begin.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

So long as Jerrah continues to rake in those dollars and keep that Johnnie Walker Blue well-stocked, Jerrah is good with the world.

I’ve mentioned before I used to chuckle in the old days at those mummified, ancient Soviet Union government officials they’d roll out during their annual May Day parades and how those discombobulated old frickers could barely stand and wave and barely looked like they even knew where they were.

And I’ll be damned if that’s not a good chunk of DC now.

They also want a dome. This allows them to host the Super Bowl.

Yep, and once that’s done, the old legendary “black and blue” division…the “NFC Norris” as Berman used to call it….the division of frozen tundras, Lombardi, Butkus, Bud Grant, Ditka and more…will be 3/4s indoor, domed football.

Thank goodness for Lambeau Field at least.

They are strange to look at.

It often appears on TV like a big-headed video game character got inserted into a live football game.

I don’t doubt it but what’s going to be done about it?

We already know that social media highlighting of the issues (for several years ongoing now) doesn’t move the needle with those who could actually try and do something (I’m looking at our esteemed DC “public servants” like Thune and co.)

Thoughts and prayers to the inevitable elimination of the middle class in TX.

Much like CA, eventually one will have to be wealthy enough to avoid having to live with the day to day consequences of their voting preferences or they will be too poor to escape it.

Meanwhile the list of available places for the dwindling middle class to escape to will continue to become fewer and fewer.

I think it’s pretty evident elections in this country are no longer straightforward and transparent and haven’t been for some time…but I agree with your point.

2020 - “Stolen”
2024 - evidently “Not stolen”
2026 - “Stolen”

Bottom line, it’s been talked about for years now but nothing has changed, alleged bad characters are still walking freely without a care in the world, and the DC GOP which held power for these last 2 years have done nothing to address any changes.

So after awhile, getting riled up on social media might be good for commiserating with like-minded folks….but otherwise seems to serve no purpose other than flailing against the wind.

A good first step for Republican voters would be to start earnestly getting involved at the grassroots levels and sending people to Washington DC who would be serious about addressing things.
