    Welp, don’t have to watch the 2nd half of this one. God awful.

    See you next season nfl, not gonna watch the racism vs domestic violence bowl.

    Do you not purchase, like, any commercially made products?

    This post? @Tox

    I don't know what you think the point of this is? Convince people to watch anyway? Never watch? Leave the thread?

    It’s interesting that 1 terrible human being / player will keep folks from watching the SB but the dozens of other amazing human beings / players have no effect.

    Well, go KC I guess. Mahomes is an exciting player, if nothing else.

    I hope Bosa suffers a career ending injury while pacing the sidelines. He can just absolutely go fuck himself, the bigoted dipshit. He doesn't even deserve to be taken out during a play.
    Edit: I usually like to think of myself as being a good sport, but fuck that MAGA piece of shit.

    Everyone in this thread knows that the NFL is a shitty game filled with shitty people and run by even shittier people; you aren't revealing some grand truth or anything by bringing that up. Everyone also has, for the most part, made a bargain with themselves to decide how much (or how little) they are going to continue watching the NFL in light of these things

    But sometimes, for whatever reason, a person will decide that "nah, fuck this" and forgo watching completely, despite this existing bargain. Maybe they're already sick of all the bullshit, and having the extra indignity of being forced to listen to some farted out redemption arc narrative for a wife beater is too much.

    It'd be nice if they could make their post complaining about the thing that literally everyone in this thread knows is true without anyone jumping down their throat with some bullshit what-about-this argument that goes nowhere.

    Because tossing someone in the ditch forever and not ever allowing that they could become a better person is always the best choice. There are shitheads who will never improve because they think they are just flat out broken, like AB, Tyreek, etc. that I wish would stop being celebrated, but won't happen because winning matters more than anything to ownership.

    If people want to quit watching/supporting NFL I have zero issue with it. At some point the league will drive itself into the ground and cease to be relevant.

    Everything is awful. Every team is owned by a billionaire (whatever GB), and employs at least a couple of people that have done either questionable or even outright terrible shit.

    But there's also lots of good people too, and I'll root for them. Mahomes seem pretty cool, and I'm sure most of the Chiefs players are too. Same goes for the 49ers, I know that a lot of those guys give back to their communities, and I'll cheer them on.

    Everyone knows Hill and Bosa are trash, I don't want to waste my time on them.

    And people like Katie Sowers, 9'ers coach and lgbqta+ activist, deserve support as well.

    But at the same time, I can't fault anyone for stepping away from the sport because of the likes of guys like Hill and Bosa

    He also came out and said they are not hiring a GM for 2020. I really hope Watson just refuses any extension and gets out of there.

    BOB is the GM. When he says they wont hire a GM, he is saying he’ll remain as GM.

    He apparently is not only a GM-Coach, but also whatever role is above GM that makes GM hiring decisions

    To be fair, it's not like they're going to have much to do at the draft what with everything they gave up in the Tunsil and Conley trades.

    Of course they're making him do three jobs and giving him the title and salary of the lowest one.
