We’ll see how this goes pre Covid vaccines and will be interesting for sure! Impossible to know how any team will do without preseason games. Trubisky named da Bears starting QB over Foles which is surprising since he looked soooo bad last year. I have no problem benching him immediately if he stinks again in Q1.

Yeah, it's going to look a lot different just like everything else this year. Empty stadiums, piped in crowd noise, and I gotta say my patience with the messaging of the Social Justice crowd is running out. I follow football, namely the Packers, to escape from the everyday politics not to be reminded of it. Sure hope we have snow this winter, the north woods might be the only place to go to avoid the daily ranting and bad behavior.

Ya I agree Mark we need football gives us that Fall feeling that winter and riding is just around the corner. It will be different as Gary indicates but may help to normalize life as usual. We all need to move forward with our lives get back in the swing of things.

Social justice millionaires playing a game. I used to love the NFL and my dreadful Vikings. Its gonna be hard to turn it on this year. Man I wish they could just leave the BS out of it and play the game. That was an escape on sundays from all the day to day crap I deal with. Can't willingly subject myself to it if thats what its gonna be. Messages in the endzone. Messages on helmets. Messages on shoes. Kneeling for the National Anthem! Nope I am out.

Guaranteed 21 million and a draft pick for Foles and he is not better than Trubisky? Cam Newton signed with the Patriots for 1.05 million.

In nearly 56 years I have never watched a full game. I just can't see sitting in front of a TV on a nice Sunday afternoon.

I know a guy that would watch both Sunday afternoon games and then the Sunday night game every week. I can barely watch one game without feeling bored or guilty for being inside when it's nice out or I have things to take care of.

Yup, done. I was getting sucked into the Twins until they took a game off for “Social Justice” - haven’t even looked up a score since.

Same here, I have been to about a dozen games and even then only watch part of it. Same thing with baseball. The only ball sport I can really get into watching is basketball, but no way will I be watching or attendng any games anymore

I will admit I'm not much of a sports fan but enjoyed...key word...ENJOYED attending games until just as slimcake said "social justice millionaires" playing a game, I just don't understand how one mans career was destroyed after taking a knee and basically much of the world "at that time" was against what he was doing (as was I) and here we are just like many other things that were considered taboo, politically incorrect or offensive, now if you don't agree with or aren't on the same side as the "social justice idiots" you are the one with the problem.... I just don't get it and you hear a lot of push back from people with the same opinion...done with professional sports, and honestly I don't care to and doubt I will attend any games as long as this agenda is part of their game.

The only sports I would watch would be the occasional Badger football game, and the Packers. I'm not going plan anything around watching the Packers, meaning if I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE GOING ON, I may turn it on. I'm not going to watch a game where players have a criminals name on their helmet.

I will only support sports that endorse the law abiding,hard working, tax paying American citizen. that eliminates most or all Pro sports that I used to watch. Bless the USA and her veterans.
