With the economy continuing to decline, Trump's focus is the new NFL "kickoff" rule.

What do you do when you have ZERO ability to run a country and instead try and run it like you did one of of your many failed businesses? You deflect.
What do you do when you have an Epstein issue that just won't go away? You deflect.
Trump took a healthy Obama economy and "tanked" it with incompetence in his first term.
This time, he took a "slow to recover from Covid" economy and is well on his way to "tanking" it again.
 
He'll just kill some more Venezuelans (nowhere near our country) and never offer any proof of who they are.
 

Jeesh, the guy can't even comment on the NFL, lol. I'm all for the safety of the players, but what I don't like about the new rules is the starting position after a touchback....all the way to the 35 yard line, hell that's only 25 yards away from field goal range. They are wanting to increase scoring to increase viewership....it's always about the money.
 
I thought Trump and MAGA stopped watching football after the black guy kept kneeling during National Anthem?
 
The attention-whore has to micro-manage the news headlines or he gets so antsy he'll be on social media all night and unable to sleep.

He's caught between his ego and his greed. He has to have the news be all about him all the time 24-7, and he knows it has to be controversial and dirt leads, but at the same time he wants to pretend he's a good Christian doing good things as he bitterly divides our nation to get personal attention and make himself the topic of all discussions.

It must really mess with his head when people who don't give two shits about him actually enjoy their own lives and do what they like doing. He has actually made it very uncool to talk about him in mixed company. Everyone knows if he is the subject, that kills any nice party or gathering.

Best way to break up a good party in America: Start talking about Trump. Boom. Everybody leaves.

"OK, it's been fun. Sorry we can't stay longer. We have to go now. I just remembered we have to go clean the bathroom."
 
Increasing the field size would increase scoring. A CFL field is 65 yards wide and 150 yards long (20 yard end-zones) and CFL scores are higher, generally, than NFL, even with 12 man teams.
Course, you'd lose some seats, so that can't happen, I guess. Same reason NHL ice surfaces won't ever increase to European sizes.
 
Trump's Maoist approach to protecting the patriarchy is a high priority for him.
 
No, watching 95% of kickoffs sailing through the back of the end zone was boring as hell.
 

A touchback used to go to the 20 yard line, then the 25 and now it's moved up to the 35 yard line.....that's a 15 yard difference over the last several years. They're wanting to keep the viewers interest peaked for the money, that's all, disguised as safety to the player, lol.

Heck, getting the ball all the way to the 35 yard line, I'd let them all go into the endzone.....heck that's good field position.
 
Paleeze! The NFL kickoff rule isn't "new". It was adopted in March of 2024.
Considering Trump's growing mental decline, maybe he thinks that it really is new...lol
Seriously, this is just another lame attempt to deflect away from his Epstein pedophile problem that isn't going away.
The only reason that Trump does this kind of crap is because he knows how gullibly stupid his base is.

Except that if the ball hits in the landing zone, it's live and can be recovered by the kicking team....even in the end zone.

That's what the Seahawks did against the Steelers recently.

No deflection. Just trying to do my part to educate the Maga base on how Trump manipulates them. Sadly, they can't seem to figure it out on their own.
Maybe Trump's next issue with be with Nascar and their "playoff" system. Or better yet, MLB and the "designated hitter"...lmao
 
Maybe Trump should stop bankrupting farmers.
 

Oh, these are "The Days of Their Lives"......a daily soap opera in real time.
