Thanks to the spectacle of the NFL, and the popularity of FF, the game is mostly watched by the drooling masses that like things going boom. There's a hell of a lot more to it than that, as you'll find in pretty much any book store.
Yet, you cant give one breath of it here.
The league gives you nothing it is all spectacle all the time. No fan service in that realm whatsoever. The NFL network is all rags to riches trope or football family trope or FF prep. All spectacle all the time. I could understand your narrative if the NFL in any way supported it but they dont. The only thing you might have is an old George Carlin standup routine that he stopped using decades ago, when he went to a more appropriate and timely bit about the spectacle. And even then the earlier bit was to present a caricature comparison to his true boyhood love of baseball.

In baseball, I dont have to choose I can have both. Because of the game's and league reverance for its history and lore, I can wax poetic about it, people can share thier stories about visiting graves or retrieving an urn to share a moment with loved ones and it is all part and parcel of the experience.

And because of it's reverance for it's history and rigorous record keeping getting buried in the Fantasy, hot stove spectacle is also part of the game.

I can have it all.
other than a general annoyance at people playing perpetual victim, while claiming a 'blessed status' for centuries.
Only a worshiper of the MSM narrative could not see the foaming at mouth bias and outright admission of guilt that statement is. At least Nuke, is honest about it.
Nice. Obviously I've hit a nerve.
Better my nerves than your baby mama or your kids.

You won’t catch me defending the NFL. I hate the league, and everything it’s done for 10 years now. Goodell is absolute cancer.

But alternatives are emerging.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Wishful thinking, there are no real alternatives, nor will there be any time in the near future.

Real football has been an "alternative" since many decades before the NFL began in 1985 or whatever year SuburbanKulak said it started.

The CFL ain't taking over, and neither is the XFL. College Football runs in it's own lane.

If you want to see the best play the best, there is no alternative, and that's all people care about. Players taking a knee during the anthem, and people hating on Goodell, isn't going to change that fundamental reality.

Have to agree, unless some billionaire can offer stupid money on par with the NFL, those alternatives is a bunch of has been or never wases. And they fuck with the rules and that is another thing how football fucks its history.

Bear in mind, most of them are afraid of America, America is the Reb Menace, it's like they are Ukrainians and are Russian.
Fuck, I wish we had more Russian toughness in the US right now. My country is a sad reflection of what it was 35 + years ago.
It’s there, the problem is that we allowed the pussies to take over our education system.

The beauty of baseball is I can go to a minor league game, AAU, HS, in 1910 or 2010, or today and it's the same game. There is no go for 2. No dumb debate on what the fuck a catch is.
