Yeah, its Trump. He'll have convincedh imself that the NFL is a joke little league sport that no one watches by the end of the day. Someone will give him some Daily Caller article that says the Sunday night game's ratings were down or something and he'll tweet in celebration that the American people have spoken.

Didn't Donnie try making his own footballs league once?

Also Reminder:


Donnie was at last years super bowl and he left when it looked like the team he supported was losing, but then had an unexpected win.

He owned a team in the rival USFL league and sued the NFL for I think antitrust or some poo poo. He won $3.

ESPN did a 30 for 30 on it. It's called "Who killed the USFL?" And it's really good.

"You're gunna break it!"

I can't put myself in the place of not showing solidarity with my teammates when something matters enough to them to stand up to power. My immediate thought when I see the white guy amongst almost an entire team taking a knee is "the gently caress is wrong with you?"

If I remember it right... He joined the existing USFL which was attempting to establish a spring/summer league and having some success but he used his influence to push it to the fall/winter where most of the owners knew it would get killed by the NFL. Trump didn't care because he was attempting to use the USFL to force a merge to get his team into the NFL and sued the NFL about it. The suit bankrupted the USFL and Trump has repeatedly been turned down by the NFL to become an owner.

The Art of the Deal and all that.

our team puts on a short one act play during the anthem where the villains are medieval highwaymen stop-and-frisking us even though most of us are teenagers or kids. I have the part of a working mother who is killed for not giving in to the demands of a highwayman who is wearing a white hood. a grand jury is the chorus is watching this and they decide to not indict

they successfully sued the nfl as a monopoly and got about a dollar in damages. which was trebled.



the dumbass thought his team would get folded into the nfl or some poo poo.

G-g-g-g-girls can't know stuff about cars!!!!

God loving damnit I knew I shouldn't have read that article it makes me want to puke.

I'm a woman who grew up in a garage because yep, daddy was a race car driver. I was putting together engines when I was small enough to fit inside one. My job now has a large component of talking men who have no idea what a hitch is out of trying to tow their RV with thier Honda Civic, and it's loving lovely that every single day of my life I get to hear the "suprised voice" of customers who didn't think the female on the phone was capable of knowing poo poo about their car.

Maybe if there were less pieces of poo poo like this guy there would be more fathers bringing their daughters into the garage and more women knowing about cars. If no one teaches girls to program or fix things then women won't do those things.
