NFL 'color rush' Uniforms one Typo away from Oblivion

Last night we were watching a Jerry Seinfeld stand up performance which we recommend, by the way.

We forgot there was a football game last night.

Good thing.

Via Instapundit and Lindsey Thiry on Twitter we have this:

Let's be fair both the Rams and the Niners suck. Also Thursday afternoon (kickoff would have been in the 5 o'clock hour) is kind of a bad time for people to get to the stadium.

Screw it let's not be fair. Kaepernick is most closely associated with the Niners. Of course given that region's political predilections one wonders if fans aren't staying away because they support Kaepernick.

Let's look deeper. The Rams and Niners are wearing the infamous NFL 'color rush' uniforms for Thursday Night Foorball. Check those out, yo. Gansta black for the red and gold Niners, and a hideous yellow for the Rams. We recall one game where the Jets were wearing all green and the Bills all red. They looked like a giant Christmas celebration. Thank god our Giants haven't adopted these uni's.

[Sorry mate, week 14 against the Cowboys-Ed]

MotherF!@@#$!

We shudder to think.

If only someone made a typo and called these monstrosities 'colored rush' we'd be spared the whole hideous extravaganza.

It's almost as if the NFL doesn't want us to watch.

Here's Jerry on rooting for the NFL uniforms:

Roger Goodell, you want us to root for those hideous 'color rush' uniforms? What the fuck is wrong with you?

Keep on earning that $40 mil per, Roger. Keep on earning.

Roger Goodell: The form of the NFL's Destruction I

Its the first Sunday of the NFL season and we see that ratings for the Thursday opening between Kansas City and New England were down:

With 21.8 million NFL fans tuning in, the kickoff of the 2017 regular season was down 13% for the NFL and NBC from last year’s opener. Not only does that represent a very real smack down for the league and the net coming off a previous season that saw double-digit declines in its early months, but it is the worst an opening game has done since 2009.

I know I didn't watch.

Be it known, foreign reader(s), that was a marquis match-up.

As noted before the most interesting aspect was the fans really giving it to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.

His latest screw up is the Ezekiel Elliot affair. Elliot is accused of beating up his girlfriend. Goodell suspended him for 6 games.  Elliot went to a judge and convinced him that Goodell violated his rights by conducting an unfair investigation. This is at least the 4th investigation Goodell has screwed up. There was the Ray Rice affair (Rice punched out his fiancee on camera) Goodell gave him 2 games, the Greg Hardy affair (Hardy beat up his girlfriend and only got 4 games) and of course the Tom Brady Deflate-gate imbroglio. Tom Brady got four games, just like Greg Hardy!

The man makes a mess of every NFL disciplinary action. Count on it.

Investigations and suspensions aren't the only things Goodell screws up.

We'll come back to that later in the week.

Mr. we could use a man like Pete Rozelle again.
