Rick Morrissey can't beleive audacity of NFL thinking of playing in China

Leroy Yost
   Rick Morrissey is one of the great three Rick prick sportswriters in the world along with Rick Reilly and Rick Telander. From tie to time I like to keep up to date with these three incredible sports writers and what they have to share with the readers of  newspapers and recently wrote about the NFL's grandiose plan to start playing games in authoritarian and repressive China. the amount of money kiss ass corporations continue to give this bastion of democracy and citizen love I s amazing and the greed of our corporate class selling out and kowtowing to the leaders of this police state is amazing and scandalous. The brutality that is the National Football League sees the future of their twisted concept of sport doomed in the future in America and Canada (The only other place with a league) and the last gasp attempts of this insane institution in exporting games to England and now China puzzles the sports mind of Rick Morrissey. Sometimes I think all three of these Rick's are embarrassed to ne in this journalist field and clearly a Rick Morrissey would of been a great progressive writer instead of a sports one had he not entered the sports journalist profession. The NFL is hoping to play a regular season game in China by 2018 and they already have taken a number of games from smaller markets in America and planted these games in England in a regular basis and this exportation attempt by the NFL is the result of globalization and attempts to spread wealth outside the country at the expense of places seemed indispensable in America such as Jacksonville and St Louis. the NFL may be wanting to go to a place where public pressure against the head injuries will be muted and ignored and kids could go onto playing this head bashing game instead of studying math and smoking the West in test scores.Maybe American football exporters want to dumb down China and slow it's growth. In reality, what the NFL is doing is something traitorous corporations have been doing for decades planting their flags and helping the cronies in countries such as China, India, and London. Yes London. London long ceased to be part of England and an empire of its own from money of its former colonial subjects. Morrissey is surprised by the hubris of this once former American league trying so hard but in vain to be an international league and locate to the wealthy parts of the world where cricket and ping pong will always remain more popular than this former American violent collision spectacle that is the NFL can ever dream of achieving a repeat of success. This is an arrogant league as Rick says that needs to finally dissolve in the only bastion of success it enjoyed and is now trying to ultimately abandoned in so many ways as it had been doing to its blue-collar  fans for years. Two of the Rick's will discuss this American cultural exportation attempt to dumb down Chinese kids with sports instead of them and their usual excel in math maybe later here in the Left Shark and Right Bull blog.
