You are right.
Just his adding how if Biden and Harris were in office it wouldn’t happen made me figure he was trying to make some kind of point that Trump being president and allowing fly overs was a waste of money, and Trumps fault.
Even though they have been doing fly overs for as long as I can remember. Whether a Democrat or republican was president.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, chance are, it’s a duck.
Sometimes a label fits.
Of course I don’t know if Aikman is a liberal or not.
Almost all “rich” people are left leaning. Look at Hollywood. Or major league sports.
Those that come out of the closet and admit they back President Trump get raked over the coals. Like that makes them horrible people.
I don’t know.....maybe the point Aikman was trying to make is that if Biden and Harris were in office, that they would destroy the military and that would end flyovers, as there wouldn’t be any planes or military pilots to do so. Maybe he’s a conservative! ( I don’t think that’s the case, but who knows?)

I don't personally like Aikman, but still I want to see/read all the facts and not just those cherry picked to support an argument. Fake news is not just a one way street.

I like Troy Aikman as an announcer because he's pretty intelligent. I'm not a fan of Joe Buck. I don't know either personally so can't speak onto that. I remember us fans thinking Joe Buck/Troy Aikman were our good luck charm for the 2010 season, lol. Funny how things change.

Re Buck. I disagree. He is excellent a play by play. He doesn't feel the obligation to rattletrap like Sam Rosen who thinks he is paid by the word. He sets up Aikman exceptionally well. He is also outstanding on baseball.

To the topic, people say goofy stuff all the time for humor, sarcasm, or just to have some fun. I would not ascribe political motives. For what it is worth, Aikman had consistently given to Republican candidates, which would seem to give some level of credence to the opinion that the words spoken were either sarcastic or just bloviating.

You sure do love “correcting” people. You do it every chance you get.
The “do as I say, not as I do” sure does fit you.
No one is allowed their opinions, unless it agrees with your opinion.

It really doesn’t bother me though, as I’ve come to realize that’s the way you are.
Just my opinion, of course!😂

I was not going to mention this and now feel, screw it. It is interesting that he said "Kamala-Biden" ticket. Some can say this is semantics, and that's fine. Still, it is interesting that the VP is mentioned before the President on that ticket. It shows there are people who willing to vote for anyone other than Trump, even if they don't even support the other candidate.

As for flyovers, they have importance for pilots and we might wanna figure all that out before getting on our rage wagons and prop ourselves up on some moral high horse.

Zero, it’s what I’ve been saying all along. I honestly believe that most of the people voting for Biden are only voting for him because they hate President Trump that much.
If they took the time to look honestly at what he has done for this country in the last 4 years, they wouldn’t be so quick to judge him badly.
Their hate for him was from long before he became President. The guy could save a baby by running into a burning building, and they’d still hate him.
Why do some say “Kamala/Biden?”
Maybe it’s because they realize just how corrupt Biden is, and have to say it that way to allow themselves to still vote for the guy.
Of course I don’t know for sure. But I wouldn’t vote for him no matter who his VP choice would be.
47 years. Nothing positive for Americans. Easy choice in my opinion.

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (5h) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.
packerfanoutwest (5h) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it
beast (6h) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done
Zero2Cool (13h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.
Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
