Football is a brutal and body damaging sport. Anyone who has played a lot may show effects in the way they walk.

Gene.

I think you are white.
I think you are conservative.
I think you are living in South Carolina.

Sorry..... you cannot be accepted.

Moving on.....

You are, unfortunately, correct. This is also why I get no credit from the self appointed racism judges for posting about a black woman that achieved a non-sports technical first. I believe I know why, latent racism tells them blacks are capable of all sorts of athletic achievements but not academic or technical achievements.

It is a chronic think for him. Saw a documentary on him. Think somewhere in the espn monolith of programming probably 10 years ago. He’s one big ball of arthritis, inflammation and pain. Too high a price to pay, but he sure did entertain.

When we lived in Laguna Nigel the house had AC. We used it only when the Santa Ana winds came through. Other than that the afternoon breeze would blow the heat out of the house for the evening.

Happy Birthday to OJ Simpson

The first black man and NFL legend in history to virtually cut off the heads of two white people,
lead the police on a slow speed chase headed to Mexico with a hoard of cash,
a disguise and fraudulent identification, and be found not guilty in court of law.

Another great day for America!
Let’s join hands, turn our backs on the flag, and sing the Iranian national anthem!!!

This is the new normal. Race, finance, religion, illness. sports, sex (gender), sex (orientation), food choice, hairstyle,
clothing style, cars, homes, hygiene, phobias, hobbies, sleep position, nose or mouth breathing, fitness level, etc etc

All political hot button topics

Somewhere, buried deep in my Box of Memories, I have OJ’s autograph when he was here for the ‘68 Hula Bowl. I’ve considered burning it a couple of times. :-&

I recently spoke to someone who claimed flying the US flag was a declaration of conservatism. Oh, and also a lift kit on a truck or Jeep. I now identify as whatever the political version of an atheist is

While my dad and I were fishing in AK last year he told me how upset he was about BLM etc etc. he decided he wasn’t going to watch the NBA or NFL as a result.

I told him that was ridicules. He’s 80 and that’s what he lives for at this point. He watches sports morning noon and night. Told him why would you give up your passion and something you love because you don’t like a marking on a court or you’ve let petty politics creep in to your life in a way they only can if you let them. Without the screaming heads telling you it’s bad you’d likely not give a ****. Pay attention to who and what you listen too that drives these thoughts. What would happen if you shut them out. Would you be so constantly outraged or pissed off? Nope.

Oddly he listened to me. He’s a huge Suns fan and as we were watching the game together last night he randomly turned to me and said I’m sure glad I didn’t stop watching (he’s missed very few games).

Life is short and fun. How some folks get so jacked up over things that have so little impact in them is beyond me.

It’s only political if you name it such. Reread the first part of this thread. It really wasn’t political. The reactions both ways became so.

I had pizza for lunch.
