It's ...Yes, Rich, the world is an insane place. It's sad but true.<br /><br />When a man (a huge football player guy, to boot) can feel justified in punching a woman into unconsciousness, no matter what she may have said to him to provoke him, or even struck him first, it's time to reassess the violence that is rapidly becoming the norm in our society, rather than the exception.<br /><br />Let's all take a step back, folks. Forget football, money, and lawsuits for a moment, and ask yourselves the big question: is this kind of stupid violence the thing we want to see happening in the world around us? Is this the kind of thing we want to, by example, teach our children?<br /><br />IS IT?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-4826513823871664412014-09-11T18:07:13.517-07:002014-09-11T18:07:13.517-07:00Nobody remembers OJ?

This stuff has been going on for years. It's likely each NFL team has someone who has committed some form of domestic abuse. The 49ers have collected several players that were castoff from other clubs after committing domestic abuse. The Niners/Harbaugh are more interested in winning games than being the moral standard of the NFL. As long we don't have to look at videos of abuse, it's all swept under the rug. For me, I watch/root for the Niners, but also recognize that most of the players are not role models on any level and should never be swooned over or held in some higher level of esteem. They're just football players. I'd likely not want anything to do with most all of the players. At the end of the day, It's just entertainment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-75782794164350894562014-09-11T14:59:58.048-07:002014-09-11T14:59:58.048-07:00Football is the Roman Coliseum battles of the 21st...Football is the Roman Coliseum battles of the 21st century. Who cares about the consequences or body count? Bring on the lions, tigers and bears. For once, I'm glad I live in a city that doesn't have an NFL team! Besides, how ignorant is it to want one team to kill, beat, defeat the other team, and then magically expecting that kind of violence to stay in the locker room after the game. Does anyone expect a drunk driver to make it home safely after a party without crossing paths (or killing) anyone else out on the road that night? Yeah right....

I remember when football was simply about the game. Now it's about everything else that often blinds the main subject. I, for one, have cut back drastically on football viewing (to the ends of each game etc) because all of the pageantry, politics, and overcommercialization as well as mock drafts have become beyond insufferable, rendering the whole game useless in my minority view. Good luck trying to bring society some perspective, where in many football elements, it's treated like a disease.<br />Speaking of perspective on a different subject, Rich, let us know if any of the PIXers leaving are prominently in front of the camera. Didn't see anything different this morning up front; sounds like those behind the scenes, especially with night beat, are the ones that will take the hit first.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-33476665834699239562014-09-11T13:45:27.412-07:002014-09-11T13:45:27.412-07:00I will watch the games, wear the jerseys, and chee...I will watch the games, wear the jerseys, and cheer on my team.

We now live in a hyper media bubble-Facebook, Twitter, Multi satelite informational networks, the Web, closed circuit cameras etc. I really don't think behavior is any different than twenty years ago. But, that behavior is almost impossible to hide from media sources for those in the public eye.. All humans are flawed. We make poor decisions almost daily. For those living in the bubble, flaws/poor decisions will play out for all to see until the public tires of the of the perpetual drama..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
