The NFL Fantasy
Posted by Jack Splat | Wednesday, January 20, 2010
Dear Sports Fanatics.......Now that you have had time to chill from your victory or defeat . its time to take a step back and look at the big picture....I have learned over the years thru many great wins and numerous ugly losses that the NFL does not send me a check or cash for the effort.... .I have no stock in my Steelers ...There are no pension checks coming in the mail . I have never received a stimulus payment from the Ravens . So with that said ... why should I or anyone invest so much of their time and energy on any team.. ??? It's a false GOD
It is not worth being bummed out and depressed for days on end , or stressing pre-game for a team that I have nothing to do with. Why should I kick the dog or not talk to the wife because Brady did not come through in the clutch.
The countless hours I have wasted on the NFL and Steelers when I could have been more productive with my time, my work and family....the yard.......the things that really count in life..
People are living their lives thru these teams ... Spending enormous amounts of time and money and unneeded stress for what???? I'll tell you what... chachinggggggg the cash registers ring...non stop
to make the NFL and it's sponsors richer..!!!! That's all it is ONE HUGE MONEY MACHINE that we poor suckers buy into. How much Bud Lite can they force feed you in commercials..How many more Geico ads do they have to cram in our brains. If I see one more Progressive Insurance spot with that stupid Flo... I am moving to Haiti.! 6 dollar beers, 5 dollar hotdogs , $20 dollar premium parking .. and a $175 dollar tickets to a seat in the upper deck... to watch a bunch of overpaid premadonna- tattooed hip hop dancing , gang sign flashing ...... smack talking , gun toting dredlock wearing steroid injected thug... do his, I'm the Greatest "dance in the endzone. Lets celebrate a basic sack like we just won the Freeking Superbowl Baby!! ..Lets forearm shiver some guys head into concussionville and dance on his limp body because " I am One Bad Mo Fo Yo" Look at me... Send me mo money .......
Its not your fathers NFL anymore. Its a pre-packaged sydicated network corporate marketing plan designed specifically for all the suckers that have no lives that wanna live their life thru the glories of a football team that makes them feel less like the loser they really are.
Paint their faces and put on their Raider costumes so they can get noticed,,, Wear a rubber dog mask and get some cheap laughs and maybe get on Prime Time....., Pay $125 for a Ben Roelisberger shirt so they can be like Ben or be a tough guy steppin out on the town in my Ray Lewis shirt ,, etc....IT'S A FANTASY PEOPLE!! WAKE UP!! Quit beating your wife because your team did not cover the spread.....
Enjoy reality everyday reality..... thats where you get paid big time........Jack
