3 Curmudgeons Lament--Okay, This Is Really A RANT--The Downfall Of Sports. Central Banks Have Pumped So Much Money Into The System Over The Last 10 Years, And The MoneyMen, Those 1 Percenters, Are Able To Use That Money To Purchase Teams/Clubs And Transform Them Into Infotainment. The NHL Sacrificed Their Souls, European Football Clubs Have Been Stripped Of Their Traditions And The MoneyMen Simply Laugh. From Big Media Companies Purchasing Sports Networks To Cross Promote And Flog Political Ideologies So Their CEOs Can Gain Political Influence, Fans And Supporters Can No Longer “Escape The Real World.” What Happened To The NFL? Oakland Raiders? Real Sports Commentators And Intelligent Insight? Sports Has Simply Become Another “Investment Vehicle” For The Wealthy To Extract Money. Tradition Is Dead. Or, Has It Always Been Bread And Circuses?
