I'm just at the point where I'm sure many Clippers, Raiders, Browns, Sacramento Kings, etc fans have been over the years. Rooting for a team with an owner I don't hold in high regard.
No it wasn't.
Millions still go to watch baseball.
Millions no longer do, and the game is feeling it.
Whether you believe it or not, you make a difference. I quit baseball after they stole the World Series, and I haven't gone back. Now, I'll quit football after Brady retires, because the league is clearly corrupt.
And I will never pay for another NFL item, of any kind, again.
Real fans will not abandon the team
And he just gave a "f*ck you very much" to the fans and players. Obviously, he cares more about money and the approval of the jealous "mean girls" comprising the other NFL owners.I'd say it's clearly an act of cowardice and caring more about the Shield and bowing down to it. The team will still have plenty of fans, enough fans to make him a ton of money. But if he were to against the shield, he would have risked alienated himself completely from the rest of the league and that would have hurt his pockets in the long run. He choose the shield over the fans because at the and of the day choosing the shield is a better business decision. And that clearly opens him to criticism. Let it be clear that Im not defending him in anyway. Just asking folks to relax a bit.
It wasn't. But if you want it fuel your anger so you can keep making redundant posts about this and further drive up your already ridiculously high post count, knock yourself out. Have fun being so mad.Yes, it was, and I've already seen it used. Again, stop deluding yourself.
Man, you've lost your perspective. No one died. It's only a game. That first paragraph of yours trivializes an existential issue for many whose consequences dwarfs the issue we're discussing here.Bob Kraft may be a great businessman, but he sure is a sucker for “the greater good” argument. Kraft would have fit right in in 1940s Germany. He would have been one of the Jewish leaders urging cooperation with Hitler while Heinrich Himmler was busy massacring Jews by the millions.
Even if there is a secret deal to eliminate Brady’s suspension, which the NFL says there is not, he should have fought the good fight. Not because he would necessarily win, but because it is sometimes necessary to restore order. At the very least, a Patriots lawsuit would have shone the light of truth on the cesspool that is the NFL league office.
Robert Kraft, you have let the team and the fans down.
As long as your buddy Goodell is happy, eh?
Pathetic.

Completely out of touch with the fans. We are the ones who have been punished. He no longer deserves us.
