Bizarre thing about moving to America to be in academia is all the fancy right-on lefty academicals are super comfortable making sarcastic comments about `sportsball' in ways which seem to me, humble Britisher that I am, like just naked snobbery. What's up with this?

Also not sure I'm right about changing connotation of US football. But it does seem to be falling out of favor with many d/t the info we have about traumatic brain injuries. Q whether it is falling out of favor evenly across demographic groups.
Ah thanks, this is an interesting reply! That was another one of my thoughts - maybe the frankly awful behaviour of the NFL organisation w/r/t the injuries has made them kinda moral fair game, in a way that I haven't tracked because I am too disconnected from the events.
