    They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.

    I thought the Black National Anthem was when Whitney Housten sang it at the superbowl in 1991. ...cuz that was the best version that I ever heard.

    I have not watched any of those reindeer games in ages and have no plans of watching any in the future.
    I have better ways to waste my time.
    Boycotted the NFL after the take a knee BS, but came back for about 6 games last season, as they seemed to get a little more patriotic. No more! I am pretty much done with all pro sports, and college football is not even exciting me anymore. I look forward to increased time in my garden, prepping and spending time at the range. Priority is spending time with grandkids to undue the propaganda they get.

    311 Speedway is a half-mile dirt track located just off highway 311 in the north-central portion of the state.
    The Journal reported Saturday that 311 Speedway had lost a couple partnerships in the wake of Fulp's post — one from a concrete company and the other from a driver series.

    I love Football. I will not be watching this year or maybe ever. I am a 73 year old viet nam vet that spent his working life as a supermarket meat cutter. I refuse to watch a bunch of overpaid spoiled elitist men complain about how they are being discriminated against while making millions of $$$ a year while disrespecting my Flag. I hope nobody watches and all these athletes go broke and have to work like most Americans have to work. They can all go to hell as far as I am concerned.
