What are professional athletes paid to do?

[ill]

I wasn't entertained because the NFL limits what games I can see.

I regret springing for Hulu Tv this weekend...I don't know if I will continue to do so.

I could always spoof my IP and login to fox sports to get the game from an area air it, but that's alot of work. I put together some new Harry Potter Legos with my kid and painted some trim. I'll maybe start caring after the 4th pre-season game.

I hated wasting a day with perfect weather to watch that terrible game.

Their job is what their contract says their job is.

do you think their contract says "entertain the fans" or "play sport for team for x seasons"

I think that they have told the fans what they are for years.

It's a business.

Fans need to get over that delusional loyal fan mentality and see themselves for what they are.

Customers.

Me? I'm not going to stop eating at Burger King because one of their cashiers supports BLM. I will stop eating at Wendy's, however, if their chili gives me diarrhea.

But if someone else doesn't want to give the NFL their money because of their anthem protest, they have that right.

Just like people had the right not to give Chik-Fil-A their money because of the comments said about gay marriage.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

It's how business works.

Wendy’s has chili?

Wendy’s has chili?

Where the fuck have you been?

 

[TigerBait1971]

I wanted to separate it from the other post and see what the masses think, not just Tigerbait

What I think is all that matters. Sorry.

 

[Bring Back The Oilers]

Wendy’s has chili?

That's what they call it.

I ate it one time and was shitting the runs within 10 minutes.

I do not recommend it.

This thread would have kept its motion up in the PF. Turrible to derail it here.

Yes. The edict came down from on high. Make the league “more fun” ie entertaining.
