For you attentive readers, you know that I have been boycotting watching NFL football games because of Roger Goodell's not disciplining those players either sitting or "taking a knee" during the playing of our National Anthem. We are about halfway through the season and I have yet to relent on this pledge ... as have also legions of other principled football fans ... as viewership has been seriously diminished ... see: CBS Local News Story.
Now however both Bill Belichick and Tom Brady of the New England Patriots have publicly endorsed Donald Trump for president. Consequentially, this development has given me a free pass once again to watch Patriot games ... but still none of the other NFL games. So this Sunday I will watch Brady throw a deflated football to Gronk as he humbles the Seattle Seahawks and their gaggle of kneelers. I might even have a beer and some pretzels ...
