It's sad that there isn't like... a forum for political discussion or anything and the only outlet you people have is in the football news thread.

Chichevache posted:Ban Tom Brady, Bill Belly, and Rex Ryan for off-topic conversations, please. 4-game suspension to every athlete that publicly endorsed a candidate unless it was Vermin Supreme. Intruder posted:Do you nod silently to yourself when athletes make political stances and talking heads tell them to stick to sports? Yup. Because I really don't care what a multi-millionaire that's good at something unrelated to politics, economics, or social welfare thinks. Also mostly because I've been using football as a way to hide from the complete and utter insanity that has been this election cycle.

Intruder posted:Our new president has firsthand experience in killing football leagues, there it's sports related 1. Goodell takes lessons from the Trump school of management(tm) 2. NFL gets run into the ground in a year instead of 5. 3. We finally get a new league with new broadcast contracts that aren't suicidally stupid and locked in for 50 years or whatever. I mean, we can dream, right?

OBR posted:Every thread i've looked today in TFF looks to have the same amount of race war talk as a containment thread for racist refugee haters on a finnish board. I came here to read about Zimmer passing on kicker tryouts, not C-SPAM. Evidently the fact that a celebrity supported a candidate other than Clinton means that every thread is a politics thread and kill whitey and here's my fantasy of finally getting to kill my boss because he's white and that's cool now. Oh and also supporting a candidate other than Clinton should be punished by grevious bodily harm, etc etc. Give it a week or two and everyone will get back to just having a few posters talking about their obsessive hatred of a team for being good.

The irony in this is that even with all that princess ball-modification bullshit Eli can't throw to save his life. CharlestheHammer posted:Eh this is people's lives freaking out is kind of apt. Literally nothing will change. The rich will still be rich, the poor will still be poor, and the dwindling middle class will still be hosed 6 ways from sunday.

blue squares posted:Having football on again is going to make everything feel normal again. Unless the Browns win, which would be a sign of the apocalypse. Cleveland wins in a shutout. 2 seconds before the game ends, a rogue black hole collides with the sun and ends everything we know. Bet on it. Boosh! posted:Can't believe he hasn't been jumped yet in the locker room. Ballsy, I give him that. That would require someone else in that locker room having the physical strength and enough care for the Jets to do it. No one wants to be there. Not even the mascot. E: No seriously, it must suck being a Jet. It's not like being a Brown, where everything sucks and no one's really expected to win poo poo. So you just kinda show up and hang out and maybe toss the ball around, but it's all cool. But the Jets, man. They're going hardcore at it and have a ridiculous fanbase that expects them to be good. So you show up and get yelled at. And you get pushed to perform your best. But in the end of the day, you have no QB, stillborn play-calling, and poo poo-all for prospects, so the only reason you really *play* is cause maybe some other team will offer to trade for you/you can head out in FA and get a decent contract with another team. But for now, you're stuck going into the locker room filled with despair, through fans that all actively hate you for not somehow carrying the entire team on your back, and an organization that buys its own hype.
