NFL Week 3! The Godfather Thread

Every week I start out with hopes of fun and frolic, free of politics, and every week….

This week it’s brought to you by four NFL assholes, three NBA jerks, two Goodell proclamations, and a President in a pear tree.

I was glad to see President Trump finally do what I’ve been hoping he’d do in response to Stephen Curry advised us all that he wouldn’t be going to the White House to celebrate their NBA win.  And that’s tell these overpaid self-entitled, conceited twits that play an effing GAME for a living that don’t worry about not accepting an invitation – I’m not extending one.  LeBron James of course said “it used to be an honor to go to the White House until you got there.”  Who the hell do you think you are asshat?  Call me when you have a solution for North Korea.  You didn’t even WIN the championship.

Not to be outdone, four SJW NFL twits, in an effort to justify their pre-game jerk behavior, sent a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell that the month of November should be a political awareness month to focus on the social injustice and inequality and police brutality.  You know, because October is Breast Cancer awareness month.  Okay, let me tell you that I don’t even AGREE on the NFL’s call on that one.  Making grown men dress in pink doesn’t sit well with me.  What would these guys do?  Wear the now-famous Colin Krappperdick police as pig socks.  Geesh.  It didn’t help that earlier in the week that Goodell sent out a pronouncement that their political opinions need to be respected.  Uh, no they don’t, ROGER.  Their opinions don’t matter any more than mine does and they don’t seem to have a mutual respect for it.  So, no.  And this would be the same Roger Goodell that refused the Dallas Cowboys request to honor the five slain Dallas police officers last year during a PRE season game.  So shut up, Roger.

President Trump opined in a speech Friday that these anthem-kneeling disrespectful jerks should be released.  Hey, it’s his opinion.  But apparently Goodell just couldn’t help himself.  In yet another proclamation he chided the President that his comments were divisive and reflected badly on the NFL.  Oh man.  Really?  I don’t need another reason to loathe Goodell, because it’s starting to get as lengthy as my missive to Santa when I was four years old.  Goodell, have you SEEN the stands?  The TV numbers?  Hell, they were practically giving seats away for the Rams-49ers game Thursday night.  $15.00 – the price, as Limbaugh put it, of two stadium pretzels.  And scheduling that game was brilliance on the part of the NFL.  Start time of 5:30 p.m. on the Silicon Valley commute highway.  I could have WALKED to the stadium faster — from Oakland.

So, hey, that’s it.  Hoping for froth and frolic next week.

So watch your faves.  And THANK YOU President Trump, for giving voice to AMERICA’s opinion — once again.
