The injuries were the first thing with me. I love the game and few things are better than a good hit. With that said, I remember Jack Tatum crushing Stanley Morgan and breaking his neck. There's a difference between "good" and "dirty", though. Guys trying to kill each other before kneeling to pray for immobile opponents has always irritated me. But I still like the game.

But the current political landscape is making me question my values. I'm still rooting for my teams but I might not watch as much as I am inclined. I'm not watching tonight or Thursday night and probably won't watch on Sunday. I reserve the right to change my mind. I just can't look at another NFL owner [[let alone those booing fans) without retching.
