I will not be watching the Superbowl this year. I've got this thing about organizations that support taking a knee during the National Anthem.

But here are some interesting technical facts about the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

PS: I'm not a huge fan of Lady Gross Gross, either.

Interesting.
I've got a thing about organizations that try to limit my free speech (even though I think taking a knee is sacrilege), or that promote gun ownership for mentally incompetent people.
You come work for me. I guarantee you will not be free to express yourself while on my property and on my dime.

... promote gun ownership for mentally incompetent people.
That's a complete lie. Social Security Administration recipients who have a representative payee have not been deemed “mentally incompetent.” That is not a legal term recognized in federal law as it relates to prohibitions against acquiring or possessing firearms.

I'm a representative payee for a person on SSI so I know what the true status is and it damn sure isn't “mentally incompetent.” A very large number of them are elderly and might live far from banks and grocery stores and may wish to have a family member or friend make bank deposits and grocery purchases for them. Why would a sane person want a person adjudicated as a mental defective to have a gun? This BS SSI unlawful ruling is one of those Executive Order type excesses the left hates today when Trump does it.

Possession of a firearm by the mentally ill is regulated by both state and federal laws.

Federal Law
Under 18 U.S.C. § 922(d), it is unlawful for any person to sell or otherwise dispose of any firearm or ammunition to any person knowing or having reasonable cause to believe that such person “has been adjudicated as a mental defective or has been committed to any mental institution.”

If you aren't from New England, I'd like to supply a bit of background. Back in September, Shields MRI, a healthcare company, filmed a commercial with Tom Brady featuring his (then) four super bowl rings. The punch line was he had four - so far. Unbeknownst to the general public, they also filmed the five ring version. What chutzpah!
