The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

[Bolares]

There is basically nothing endearing about the franchise. I stopped paying attention to the NFL a little more than ten years ago, because I thought how the league was treating retired players was shameful and probably evil; the revelations about brain injuries and other more-recent news have done little to change my opinion on that. I still see enough about the local team in the local news to know they manage to combine corporate evil and sexism and racism in the front office with perpetually-bad sport decisions.

EDIT: Here's a piece that says it better than I could: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/02/02/military-washington-commanders/

Now, about this.... American Football weirdly is by far my favourite spoert. Even though I'm brazillian I ended up playing and then being the offensive coordinator of my cities amateur team (there is no such thing as a professional league here). So while a agree the NFL is troublesome to say the least, I find it hard to stop watching games. The whole Kaepernick thing was really rough for me though.

Brian Flores sees your discomfort with the Kaepernick thing and says, "Hold my beer."

So, when you run across something that might be the most ludicrous take you've ever seen on ENWorld*... but it kind of fits with the posters other posts and you don't see any sign it's a joke, do you still assume they were just joking?

I find that if I pay attention solely to what is on the football field, it is the most wonderful sport.

Like many things, it is the business side that can wreck it- especially the owners. This may shock some people, but old guys with billions of dollars may not always be pleasant, progressive, and nice people.

Yeah.. that's what I'm doing.

...how ludicorus?

On the scale of 1 (CleverNickName recanting his pineapple heresy) to Infinite (I decide to create a "Thank you to all Bards and the Neat-o People Who Play Them!" thread) ludicrousness?

Is there a unit of measurement for ludicrousness? Does it differ between metric and imperial?

"That's insane. I think it's approximately 32.4 kilocarrottops."

"No other class is even half as good as bards" level.
