I'm probably the only SEC fan in north east Wyoming. I follow the Wyoming Cowboys here but it's not the caliber of football the SEC displays.

I think you guys best Mizzou not too long ago.

I have a good friend in Montana who follows the Grizzlies. Are Montana and Wyoming in the same conference?

When it comes to political correctness of a sports team, I really don't give a flying ratts butt what the pro sports team does. What an athelete wants to do is their business, not mine.

At the end of the day, what an pro athlete does on or off the field puts no less nor no more money in my pocket, and watching sports, although may be fun, there are WAY more important things to do than have a sports team affect your own personal attitude.

Now, that said, since I've seen Bill Bergy play at the Vet, I was jumping up and down screaming my head off at the TV when the Eagles finally won. Still remember when they lost to the Raiders in 80 (but at least the Phillies won that year).
He lived in my neighborhood for 40 years. Spoke at my HS football banquet.
Watched him play many times. His son was a heck of a lacrosse player. Played for the Wings.
As far as athletes and politics go, I agree with you about their views, but when it spills over into the pre game antics?
Im out. Apparently so are a lot of others. Viewership is awful for pro sports right now.

You hit the nail on the head, entertainment...

Entertainers shouldn't dictate your feelings IMO past the moment the entertainment has expired.

But, it all comes down to money.

Just look at the NCAA. They were finally exposed for what they are.

Yep. NCAA made all the wrong moves and came out looking terrible.

Being the father of 2 NCAA athletes, I can tell you that is a shameful organization.
Your kids are treated like toys

Not going to read all 45 pages but here is are the details for Texas purple paint law:

Texas purple paint law
THAT IS NOT A LINK TO A LAW ,PURPLE PAINT OR OTHERWISE. That is blatant spam.
Your link is to your real estate agency and any words mentioning purple paint are your thoughts NOT words from Texas penal code. I'm insulted you think we are too stupid to see through your attempt at getting free advertising and mis-leading folks to boot.

No. Wyoming is in the mountain West conference and the Grizzlies are in the big sky conference.

I don't see any pre game antics.

What I see is people making a big deal over nothing because they want to make it something, and the news uses it as tool like anything else.

I also don't think pro sports is hurting for money.
