This is why it’s so difficult. When they threatened to leave New Orleans I tried to leave the saints behind... Didn’t want to be emotionally attached, but I couldn’t do it.
The bottom line is this league is about profit not competition. The competition is merely a function of the profit motive. They are selling a product and the product is actually pride and transcendence.
I have pride in something bigger than myself. It’s a neurological hormone they are selling and I am addicted. Maybe It’s how we are hard wired as human beings.
Personally, I believe the truth in many ways is we replace God with The transcendent connection with sports today. We need him, but we don’t want him, so we substitute him.
I am going to walk away again, tough thing to do but I am tired of the cheap alternatives where there is no justice or fulfillment.
Pretty sure this is a good thing. I realize I will probably get downvoted but file this post away and when something similar happens maybe it will be enough for you to do the same. ???????
