The NBA Christmas Day games have been pretty great.

The Knicks come back in the opening game was great, and the Spurs going into OKC and controlling the tempo for a double digit win was exactly what I wanted to happen.

I don't care about Dallas vs Oakland TBH

Anyway, Merry Christmas everybody

Unfortunately for the NBA, the NFL decided to take their big day.

And the games themselves are pretty lame.

Good.

I'm glad.

The NFL is the GOP of sports - Greedy, shortsighted, incompetent and run by shitty billionaires who would happily steal the last nickel from a starving man

The NFL has never won anything in court as fas as I know. Al Davis took them for 10’s of millions of dollars and they actually lost a suit to Trump ($4).
