| 2018-06-28 |
| In TEXAS? As Keanu Reeves would say - Whoa! [The Smoke Room] - Nearly half of the state’s registered voters have an unfavorable opinion of the National Football League, according to the latest University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll. Black voters had the most positive opinions of the NFL ‐ 49 percent favorable and 24 percent unfavorable. Among Hispanic voters, 29 percent were positive and 39 percent were negative. White voters were the least impressed of all: 20 percent have a favorable impression of the league, while 55 percent have a negative impression. Do you hear that sound in the distance? That’s Roger Goodell, NFL executives and owners freaking out right now. Only 26 percent of registered Texas voters have a favorable view of the NFL! |

| #9 NFL: The south loves football, they'll suck it up. SOUTH: College football will do nicely. Local boys and no politics. NFL: Crap. |

| #4 Grow a pair Goodell. I'm afraid that's a pretty tall order for Goodell. The man is nothing if not timid. |

| #3 Only 26 percent of registered Texas voters have a favorable view of the NFL! Poss the practices identified by IB 'in general' but embodied in NFL behavior in particular are in disfavor. |

| #2 When most of the players get prostrate cancer later in life emphasis on the breast cancer that affects the other gender is definitely pandering. |

| #1 Its the damned protests. But its also the political correctness, the pink cleats for a month, the bowing to LBGTQUVWXYZ grievance mongering, the kissing ass to SJWs, and putting them on the air, especially from ESPN, like Olberman. And its the winy asshole self-entitled millionaire players that talk down to us while refusing to respect the flag. Thats worst of all. Want to fix it? Stop with the Thursday Night games, they are bad for the game and bad for the players. And also drop those damned pink cleats and crap for breast cancer (Heart Disease kills far more). But mostly, get your announcers, and spokespeople to stop with the SJW politics. No politics. Period. Zip It. Especially the player: just Shut the F*** Up and play football. Dont like it? Go sell cars. Grow a pair Goodell. We have good college ball to watch, and we may never come back. |
