Facebook really needs to focus on creating an app, or whatever, to block all football talk.
I used to be a football fan. Owned all the paraphernalia. Went to a game every year. Then I started to get a little sick to my stomach, each year, progressively more and more... thinking about the money behind it all. And the shameless players. And the in-your-face rooting AGAINST your team.
Last year I bought Cam a jersey for her father's team, and one for my own. My ingrained love of football was finally trumped by my old-lady values. Sigh. So, my jerseys have gotten tagged for sale at the next big consignment sale (next week!). Rob can dress her up this year, but I won't be buying her any more gear.
Which brings me back around to the obnoxiousness that is the football bragging and taunting on FB. Instead of this "unsubscribe to_______", I need to be able to unsubscribe from any and all sports talk.
