Don't care...I am on the FT boycott.

Plus, it's football season.

Does the boycott conveniently end if they start doing well in the playoffs.

Hey now....the Yankees only sucked in the first half of the year because they were "ravaged by Covid"

Now that the Sux are "ravaged by Covid" it's called blowing a ten game lead....

Commence unbunching of bloomers.

But your favorite player Sale is back. You shouldn't be boycotting.

Unlike BNut, I'm still boycotting the NFL (gave me another reason to last night from the articles I read) and will not watch a single game this year; even if I see on ESPN that the Steelers are in the playoffs and go to the Super Bowl.

When I boycott something, I boycott it.

The Yankees and the Red Sox have sucked on and off the entire season because both just aren't very good teams. IT has nothing to do with COVID. I'm not sure what the Red Sox issue is as I don't care one ounce about the team to figure it out, but the Yankees issue comes down to 1) a cheap owner 2) bad talent scouts 3) bad GM 4) bad manager 5) reliance on analytics instead of playing the stationary game and short porch in right 6) no player leading the team and having fun.

No, he is on the Covid list along with nearly every other starter.

The last sentence seemed to be the most important to you.

How many heads on the forum would explode if neither Boston nor New York were to make the playoffs?

trudat!!!

Of course the Yankees are still 10 back. The funny thing is that the Red Sox are 9 back.

Oakland, Seattle and Toronto are all within 3 games of the wild-card leading Red Sox. It is definitely possible.

I guess there are different levels of boycotting. I generally don't watch the NFL any more (aside from the Super Bowl, which is an event) but will watch highlights and such to see some great (and not so great) plays. If someone considers that a "soft" boycott, then so be it.

He must have forgotten Boo busting him hard for buying a Dodgers hat for his kid's games while "on his boycott."
