Ok, I have no friends so you guys get the rant. NFL, we don't care about Taylor Swift.

I fear she is poisoning the minds of a lot of young people

Show business is very contrived. All of these people have handlers and marketers managing their fake & gay public images.

Yup. She gets so much attention but she is just another left wing celebrity who spouts the current day platitudes. They are a dime a dozen.

By the way who is your favorite football team? Mine is the Cowboys. Baseball the Rangers and Hockey the Stars. I’m sure you can detect a pattern lol

I’ve never seen much CFL because they don’t show it much in Texas. I guess I could check it out on YouTube. I know Warren Moon won like 5 Grey Cups before coming to the NFL. Flutir too right?

3 consistently championship-winning-or-contender Texas NBA teams and no love there?

(disclaimer: I haven't watched in like 7 seasons; quit during the 2016-2017 season after Popovich went on an Orange Hitler rant.)

I haven’t really followed basketball since Jordan retired. I will root for Mavs if they are in playoffs but only watch if someone is having a watch party or I’m at a restaurant

No problem. In high school my dad got a job in the DC area (Northern VA) so my last two years were up there. I watched the Orioles a lot. Ripken has always been one of my favorite players along with Griffey Jr. I bought a Ripken rookie card not too long ago. Orioles will be a tough team in the playoffs. My Rangers barely made it in

she Trojan Horsed her way

If her daddy wasn't in major Finance and they hadn't moved to the Heart of Country Music where she magically got gigs with session musicians, then yeah, she wouldn't have been the Trojan horse she is.

When she appeared on the scene in the mid-late 00s, it was obvious to people who understood the industry that she was targeted crap. First for execs to try and disrupt the country music scene (country was beginning it's death spiral anyway), then to pivot into a feminist pop star (which she succeeded in doing).

The most recent bullshit from her before this NFL thing was that, since she didn't own the rights to her recordings (boo fucking hoo), she went and rerecorded a bunch of her albums, released them last year, and by golly looks like they sold like hotcakes because grrrlpower (I only know this because the places where I buy music were showing her at the top for sales last year). Swift got to do what almost any artist never has the time or money (or care) to do, but because she had the resources, got patted on the back for being a AWFL fighting back against the ebul music industry.

The music industry is evil, and if you think otherwise because shitty people like Swift also have problems with it, you've been tricked.

I know it's evil, it's just that Swift's case was used as a means of acting like she overcame it all herself, a victory for wimminz, even though she already had a leg up over most other musicians that ever tried.

Any artist in pop, rock or major genre where big money is involved is guaranteed to get royally fucked in the industry. Niche genres along with metal and indie I'm not sure, maybe even small time groups have similar issues. Although the industry has given us good music, it pushes a lot of garbage (moreso in the past 25 years)

Thinking of Trojan horse. I remember on /b/ about 15 years ago there was Taylor Swift hype that she was a /b/tard. Whether she put up a real pic or it was shopped, there was a push that she was 'one of us'.

Don't know what it means, just saying that's how I remember it.

I think it is safe to say she is not based, but has an excellent marketing team.
