"Invented" is a bit rich.

I'll make you a deal. We'll do that if you look up "Dunning-Kruger" and briefly describe how it applies to this entire thread.

its obvious you have confirmation bias and are projecting it onto others. You cant even debate the actual topic but resort to iveiled insults, which typically shows ignorance and lack of humilty to admit when one is wrong.

American football is American. Water is wet, and American football is American.

I don't know if the anti-American stuff is just a schtick for you, but it doesn't matter to me or anyone here. Still don't have any idea what your connection to Ohio is, or why you, a Minnesota resident, are posting on this thread, even though I've asked.

I'm not arguing that.

You're cute to think that you aren't. At least my "agenda and narrative" (for the sake of argument, let's say that's what my opinions are) are just my own. I wouldn't be too sure about you.

What anti-American stuff would that be? Pointing out historical inconsistencies and hypocrisies? You wouldn't happen to be in that (admittedly rather well-populated) camp who thinks that people who don't like certain things about this country should leave it, would you?

Forgive me, but the very fact that you've chosen to engage with me belies that statement.

Still don't have any idea how that's any of your business.

This. These mutts lose their sense of bravado when they don't know if their potential victim is armed.
