Who is Rooting for Miami (sorta)?

My worst nightmare is that the Chiefs and Chargers lose one and the Pats* win out. -

2020 NFL Draft will be held in Vegas
leonbus23 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My family has season tickets to the Knights. I've been to many games, including the cup loss. It is a millions times more fun and energetic outside and inside the stadium than Sabres games. I was at the 8 goal game against Ottawa and despite 8 goals scored it felt like being at an AHL game. Sabres are still my favorite team, but you're insane if you don't think Vegas is the BEST place to hold big time events like the cup and the draft. -

At the Rams / Eagles game in LA. Watched the entire game when I got home to San Diego. Didn't see the McCoy run live. -

The NFL has killed the Golden Goose - ITSELF!
leonbus23 replied to PUNT750's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No. It is not that most white men are evil, racist monsters (and you have to see the irony in your statement). It's just that a certain conception of whiteness is associated with institutional, economic, and structural violence, such as colonialism, neocolonialism, slavery, genocide, segregation, etc. I am of Euro heritage (2nd generation in the US), so I see what you're saying. But that doesn't erase the legacy of these of very problematic historical facts of how white men empirically and actually behave(d) in the world. It is very easy to see that the OP is white because the post veils (not very well) a stereotype of black athletes. The NFL is a mixed bag of personalities and so forth. It is hyper-patriotic to please the patriots and nationalists. It emphasizes narratives of success while overcoming great odds (rags to riches or American dream). It creates good versus evil scenarios or plot lines. It is overtly violent. At times, I think a people from an assortment of backgrounds and beliefs question their fandom, but a huge number of people still watch because the NFL is entertainment and involves all the elements of a soap opera or dramatic film. -

I agree with 1 & 3. Number 2 is okay for reducing head injuries. I disagree with 4 & 5. 4. Celebrations are pretty fun to watch. 5. A bit more problematic. There are as many good old traditional heroes in the NFL as ever. The Bradys, Wittens, Mannings, Brees and so on. Then, there are the anti-heroes like the Ramseys, Newtons, and Lynches. But the NFL has had this dimension for a long time. Think Deion Sanders or Romanowski vs. Barry Sanders or Montana. In terms of thugs, who do you mean? What constitutes a thug? -
