These people play for money, and switch alliances "with the frequency of a cheap ham radio transmitter"

I moved to the west coast, before that Bay Area Brady guy moved to the east coast.
• Now, he's an owner of the Raiders and was behind the All Time 49ers series, shown just last week.
• Seattle has Brock Purdy's last season backup as QB.
• If Seattle wins, all the good players will leave for big paychecks with other teams. (probably the Raiders)
• The NFL does jack for retired players, including ones who are really messed up.
- Does anyone ask how owners and teams take care of their retirees, many of whom have CTE?
• The 49ers, have their own fund to support retired players, because Eddie D. still cares, even after he was tossed as owner.

TRUMP IS AFRAID TO COME TO CALIFORNIA
He's not welcome here.







And he's afraid of the electrical substation in Santa Clara.
Might blow up his pacemaker, chip implants, portable chatbot and Neuralink remote control circuits.



Closet Republicans.
How about donating to a food kitchen instead of buying a $3000.00 TV.?
