Freddie raked the Yankees. I despise the Yankees and don't like the Dodgers either, but Freeman is a favorite of mine. I hope he returns to the Braves where he belongs.

Yeah, Dale Murphy was my favorite player BITD.
Murphy, Horner, Rafael Ramirez...They used to lose a lot back in those days but I still loved them. Then came Glavine, Smoltz and Maddux and the World Series.

I champion greatness. I respect sports dynasties. I pulled for the Chicago Bulls, rooted for the Yankees in the Jeeter days, and cheered for Tom Brady louder than anyone in Minnesota. But I despise the Eagles and their douchbaggery fandom almost as much as I loathe Patrick Mahomes and the Kelsey/Swift side show. With no rooting interest in this game, I may literally skip it this year and watch a movie.
To add: I won't go so far as to say that the NFL is rigged/fixed, but I will say that there is indisputable video evidence , especially this season, that certain teams (talking to you KC Chiefs) have gotten ridiculous calls that absolutely influenced the game. When you have literal legends like Troy Aikman and Tom Brady calling out the NFL, you have a problem. I have a quarter that this will be the lowest rated Super Bowl in decades.

This is the super bowl no one wanted, and I would not be surprised if the viewership takes a dive.
I do not like both teams; the "Iggles" because they and their fans are douchebags; the Chiefs because they have been anointed by the NFL to be the Gold Child and have home cooking by the refs.
Roger Goodell has made the NFL a ton of money, but has ruined the game in the process. Just when I think I might miss the game, I'll see another round of "WTF" calls by the refs or questionable rule changes and remember why I left the NFL behind. It is a shit organization with a brilliant product owned and managed by trash ass human beings.

We almost saw our first penalty touch down this weekend and I would have gone ballistic...
BTW, I'm from Philly and I can give 2 fucks that the Eagles won.
It's bread and circus. I get absolutely tourqed when my pops calls me, talking about the game. I think partly, he does it because he's bored and partly because he knows it riles me up.....

KC wins the stuperbowl unless they totally melt down.
The narrative all year has been three-peat.

1: These KC fans never stood a chance if they attempted to defend themselves
2: The excited Philly douche bags… You didn’t accomplish anything, the professional football team in your state where you happen to live did something.
3: the Cunt who stole that dude‘s hat, that’s fucking theft. It makes me so angry, fucking scumbag bullies who pray on weak people.

I've been to one NFL game, Bengals v. Steelers. It was a shitshow that I would never take a kid along to. I did not enjoy the drunk fans fighting, cursing each other out, and generally being complete shitbags. Never went to another. I'd rather go to MLB games, kick back and relax and usually meet cool fans from the other team.
