We don't have cable so we don't watch any of those channels. I watch Netflix and Amazon plus we rent videos (shows, docs, movies) from the library.
What's in Caps? Why the F are you picking on me because i don't watch friggin sports on tv for anyway?

The only balls I play with are friggin musket balls and i don't need a team to do it.....

For christ sake i just said i don't watch sports on tv, and instead i do them.....

Are you always a nagging whine... Geeze I feel bad for your husband... I bet one day he goes out for a loaf of bread and never comes back.

If you really need to have such a hate filled attitude just to feel like you are important, go right ahead, but please try to understand that most people are working to better society.

With all due respect, I couldn't care less about history. I personally work 75-90 hours per week to grow investments that help retirements portfolios (for people like you) so that you can actually enjoy your time and not worry about where that next pension check will come from. Maybe instead of stroking your ego by posting such ignorant, self serving posts like this you could try to realize that people much smarter than yourself are working very hard to provide a very comfortable life for people like you so that you have the time, comfort, and freedom to post inflammatory, ignorant things as you do on a daily basis.

As I said before, you should be ashamed of yourself.
IF what you say is true, with all due respect, I'll be retired at age 52 (less then 4 yrs) sucking up those retirement checks, made possible by ignorant, inflammatory, persons such as yourself. I'll enjoy my retirement, while you are still stuck in your cubicle, risking your paper cut and nothing more. Don't lecture me about duty and the desire to make things better in this world. I've done only what you dream about every night.

On Superbowl Sunday, I was on my day off. Standing by, so a 28 yr old woman, with 2 children could pack her house and leave her husband. I also served him with a restraining order. THAT is how I spent my day off. You keep shuffling those papers and be proud of yourself. I'm VERY proud of my service to this country.

Oh and you can feel important all you want about your education. Me? I have none. ZIP, ZERO. Yet, I'll still be retired before you. I wonder who the ignorant one is now?

Have a good night.

The word "wife" was in caps. I'm not picking on you.

And where do those retirement checks come from? You seem to have little to no education on how the fiscal or economic systems that run this country work. Despite that, you enjoy the fiscal rewards of an economic system you don't understand and are more than happy to be completely ignorant to where your pension check comes from (you are an ex-cop, correct? So you live off of a government pension!). Take some personal responsibility and try to take care of yourself instead of living off of an economic system that you are more than happy to live off of while not understanding in the least.

Or can you admit that you don't practice what you preach? Your call.

Super Bowl XLVII Ratings Set New Record

Where are your priorities, America?

My favorite superbowl response: "I'm not really a sports fan but I watch the game to see the commercials?"

"I'm a corporate slave!"
What do you suggest be watched more instead?

You mean there's nothing you would rather be doing than watching a crappy, staged game? Don't you have dreams? Aren't you worried about the current state of this country?
I dreamed that the Ravens would win - and they did.

The Super Bowl is a four hour distraction from the sorry state of the country.

Sorry, you set yourself up.
What is more impossible than a Cardinals victory is a Cardinals-Jets Super Bowl.
