do you ever sabotage your own free time? like wtf is that about? i want to play this game or read or do something specific but instead i will just stare out the window or scroll mindlessly???
Thing is, I'm not convinced any REAL people are outraged, boycotting, or even care NOW. The "culture war" is 99.9% grifters, bots and a few terminally-online creeps with grass-touching allergies who listen to grifters and bots. All amplified artificially by social media.
Drew Brees explains why he rejected Nick Saban, a yacht and the Miami Dolphins for a destroyed New Orleans franchise:
“On paper, it was Miami all the way. Miami had Nick Saban. They had just come off a 9–7 season. Defense was lights out. They were running the same offense we were running.”
“I’m sitting there eating dinner on Wayne Huizenga’s yacht. He’s talking about playing golf in Scotland every summer. No state income tax. I’m like, ‘Dude, this is wallpaper. Miami, here I come.’”
“New Orelans was six months post-Katrina. They just hired some unknown head coach named Sean Payton. Who is this guy?”
“I’m in Miami in an MRI tube for two hours just aching. They stick these big needles in my shoulder to test the nerve endings. I got this feeling of doubt. They don't really think I will be able to play. Their doctors said I had a 25% chance of coming back and playing again.”
“I go to New Orleans and it was like, ‘You are our guy.’ Sean Payton and Mickey Loomis said, ‘We’re building this offense around you.’”
“They did everything they could to roll out the red carpet despite all the circumstances. New Orleans was still destroyed.”
“Houses were off their foundations. There was a Chevy truck upside down in a living room. The car stops, and there’s a tugboat in the middle of the road.”
“I’m looking at my wife like, ‘Are you seeing what I’m seeing?’”
“It was one of those moments where it's like this is so much bigger than just football. We get to be part of the resurrection of one of America’s greatest cities.”
“This is God’s calling in our life. And that was the determining factor.”
There seems to be some momentum behind Steph Curry potentially leaving the Warriors after they failed to land another star 👀
He now has a 7% chance of leaving the Warriors, according to Polymarket.
It really is sad kids don’t get shows like this anymore. Instead they actually watch streamers who are either just terrible people or glamorize terrible lifestyles. And of course not all streamers are bad like that but I can’t help but feel some of the biggest ones are
