I've been done with 'popular' sports for a LONG time. When I was in my early teens I'd watch football every weekend an buy whatever new basketball jersey my favorite player had that season religiously. Now you can't get me to turn the TV on and I haven't for years mainly due to 3 things:
1) Whiny ass players that don't perform
2) Leagues dumbing the games down or fining/punishing players for either PLAYING the actual game the way it was supposed to be played or voicing opposition when bullshit new rules were forced upon them or even now for arguing a call. Pathetic.
3) Leagues/teams/players/people associated with the game trying to make it about something else than the fucking game, i.e. race, money, poor people, now even 2nd amendment rights
If I watched anything it was casually watching the superbowl each year. After the DD thing and then they turning around and allowing whatever bloomburg wanted aired to go ahead, I'll never watch anything again. Had they told both DD and BB no, I could understand. But after reading their policies it is 100% obvious how biased they are and they will advertise alcohol, tobacco, gay bullshit, 14 year olds in hotpants and whatever the fuck else as long as it isn't defending a right that the lowest common denominator crowd is offended by its fine.
