" The NFL is so big that former presidents narrate introductions to pregame shows..."

[Earth_First]

"If you don't like your politics or patriotism mixing with your football, tough; you're going to have to get used to it this week. The NFL is so big that former presidents narrate introductions to pregame shows and current presidents schedule speeches so as to avoid a conflict with the season opener. What else besides football could so many people together to remember the most horrific day many of us will ever see?"

Pathetic.

1. Well, fuck Payton Manning

I mean, I can guess most of these overpaid crybabies are republicans, but it's still disgusting to see a picture like that.

God forbid that millionaire pro football players should ever be asked to do anything as patriotic as pay their fair share in taxes.

2. You're right, we should just eschew all fun activities and worry about politics 24/7
