Just like to say a piece..... Start with I don't like football. For that matter, I don't like ANY professional sports. However, if those that do enjoy such things want to spend their time and money on those things, I have no objection or comment. Now, I will get to the real purpose of my post...
I really enjoy old machinery, whether it is cars, trucks, tractors, or even lawn mowers. My entire life has been spent around machinery of one sort or another. That is why I spend my time on a tractor forum - reading about tractors, farming, and other machinery. I give advice on engine repairs and other subjects that I feel qualified to speak on. Otherwise, I usually sit back and read and learn - hopefully.
Here are the things I HATE about football: 1) It is a complicated game with ambiguous rules that I care not to interpret or understand. 2) A bunch of overpaid street thugs beating up on each other is not what I call entertainment. 3) Armchair athletes. Always seem to know better than the professionals that are being paid millions to play the game. Second guess every play that they don't like. If they know so much about how it is done, why are they not out there making the millions themselves??? 4) Being in my face. I cannot go anyplace without hearing sports talk. After a while it gets on my nerves. I continually have people try to engage me in sports talk. I politely decline. If they persist, I get rude. Just don't want it in my face. Again, I come to a tractor forum to read or post about tractors - NOT FOOTBALL.
The first amendment to the US Constitution gives you the right to talk about whatever you want, but does NOT guarantee you an audience.
At the very minimum, this thread should be down below in tales. Just my opinion.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
