Now you're talking!

I've never really considered curling as an athletic event or sport.

If Ms Loughlin and millionaire hubby had paid to get USC to have a curling team for their daughters they’d be halfway to graduation by now. Rowing? That’s right up there with Lacrosse as a paid professional sport.

I agree, I checked it out. Then this dude who had a big rock with a handle on it started forward and then took a knee. WTF. He was a frigging Canadian! Back to women's beach volleyball.

NFL, NFLPA Announce 1-Hour Televised Social Justice Special on NBC

Quote:
The league recently announced their plans to write ‘End Racism’ in end zones this season. Also, the league will allow players to display the names of people killed in officer-involved incidents on their helmet padding.
None of the 406 blacks killed in Chicago so far this year had any comments....

CNN and MSNBC ecstatic at the prospect of NBC having lower viewership show airing.

These are the people who get rich when you watch football. Be done with sports, pro and college, or earn ridicule from those who are, which includes every respectable man I know...

Thanks for that link, I could not bear to watch all of Herbstreits breakdown, looked like forced angst to me. ABC and ESPN liberal beyond description. I will not miss sports in the least.
