I think I'll watch Sports when I feel like it. Big Games only. Remember the old days with Wide World Of Sport and Howard Cosell? Those days are gone forever.

I gave up on our teams, N.Y. Giants and N.Y. Jets. It was about a year before we moved to The Villages. I realized once we got here that the real reason we were so

into watching was the family could be together and we were WARM. Once we got here there was no way I was going to jeopardize most of the day watching either team

just to be disappointed time after time. So now because of the conditions we live under I would say that all Sports are open to me again to USE them to fill my time.

I could care less what they think or say. They are paid to entertain us by moving a Ball somewhere and doing something with it. (I have an idea where they could move the Ball butt....) Do you think they give a damn about us?

How many of the players who are Boycotting are sweating their Gigantic Mortgage Payment and Car Notes if nobody supports their sport anymore? Once they put it

together that it may affect their way of living their issues may be important to them today but will chill out once a certain date passes probably.

I don't even know the Managers Names of the Yankees or Mets. I don't know the quarterback's names of the Giants or Jets. What a shame.

The last Sport thing I really enjoyed was when the Cubs won The World Serious! Since then it's been a big NOTHING!
