My wife and I have become avid fans of American football. The Canadian game left us cold. Three-down football is a bore, the larger field resembles a soccer pitch, and the caliber of players is necessarily weaker than that of their American counterparts. Four-down football is far more interesting, eliminating the need for constant punt exchanges and allowing us to examine and enjoy the complexity of strategy, play adjustments, lots of audibles, and the evolution of play formation in general.
We have our favorite players and teams. I appreciate the toughness and camaraderie of the Tennessee Titans before their seemingly inexplicable run of losses.

If you check the actual minutes played in a NFL game, the average is 7.5 to 9 minutes of actual play. That's right 9 out of 60 minutes. Use a clock to time how long it takes to play the last 2 minutes of any game. It's almost as bad as Basketball. Having said that, it still is the best football on the planet, I just wish they'd fix that final 2 minutes thing.

To vax or not to vax? Not even a question anymore. Just say NO!

Hmm. My own state college alma mater’s football team started the first half of the season undefeated. Then they had an inexplicable collapse, puzzling us loyal fans. They lost — badly — to perennial also-rans in our conference. The reason was injuries, and our coach lamented that there were only eight starters finishing the season. True freshmen, including the replacement quarterback for a fifth-year senior, had to fill many slots. I don’t know if the vax is to blame, but I’ve never seen anything like it before.

No to the shot and no to football, both are useless entities. It's amazing how much free time there is left to enjoy each day.

He justifiably raises the possibility of "vaccine" culpability. For such a powerful, chromosome-altering potion, little testing was done. I still don't trust it, nor all highly-advertised, expensive drugs. Thank God for vitamins and natural cures.

I think blaming the vax for the rash of injuries amongst NFL players is a stretch. More likely that it's due to players being bigger, stronger, faster, and hitting a lot harder.

Of course #7! An instantaneous increase in strength and power is causing the injuries! Yeah! That's it! That's the ticket!
There is no increase in death or injury due to the vaccine! It's just a wacko conspiracy theory!

When TBE NFL started taki g a knee and greedy ass owners tried shaking my home town down for a stadium, the moved the Chargers to LA, i quit watching. I'll catch some college games if I have nothing else to do, which is rare. Sad that athletes are "dying suddenly and unexpectedly" but if they went on strike and resisted the jabs, that would've fixed the problem.

Those who took the mRNA shots have been internally damaged due to spike protein poisoning. It appears as if large numbers will never fully recover.
If you remember the old country and western song, "Mommas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys", seems like the new song needs to be "Mommas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up with Vax Damage".

I don’t and I won’t watch UnAmerican football. ‘Go woke, go broke’.
At least they would go broke if real Americans gave a crap and ditched these traitors.

When krapperdink took a knee and the league condoned it and a majority of the remaining players endorsed the practice, my interest in a game, played by over payed adult thugs, ended. Years later, I don't even miss it. Couldn't name a player or even what team won what!

The only NFL game or even college football game I've watched from start to finish are the ones I've attended in person. Even then, I find myself watching the people rather than the game. The only NFL game I attended was an Atlanta Falcons game. There was so much going on between plays that the game became the side show. It was a three hour give away the entire game. If your seat number is this, you've won free food from some grocery store, or you won a gift certificate to some store. This went on for the entire game. Sitting down and watching an entire football game on tv just makes me think of what I could be doing instead of watching a football game.

There is no way anyone should be mandating the COVID vaccine or any other vaccine for that matter. THEY DO NOT KNOW ANYONE'S MEDICAL HISTORY. People requiring vaccines should have their rear ends sued off.
The medical industry has changed over the years. They used to police themselves. If something out on the market had questionable results, they would pull it. Not anymore. Now it's a long list of side effects including death. Sometimes not even that. It's up to the patient to decide how much risk they are willing to take.

I counted 14 teams out of 32 that have had QB injuries that caused the backup QB to start, and many of the backup QB's have been injured. The young QB's that can run have been very effective, but running QB's will have a short career. Lamar Jackson is already sidelined. RGB III lasted as long as he could run with the Redskins, which ended with injuries. Many of the receivers have their careers shortened with ACL's. There needs to be some action taken to reduce the amount of injuries.

College football, too, has had more injuries, heart problems and sudden deaths. Players and coaches are required to take the clot shot. Coincidence??
