Media may deny it, but NFL boycotters are Trump supporters voting with their remotes

What is an “NFL”? I must have forgotten, but it sounds familiar.

No, no. It was just a weather phenomenon. Higher than normal autumn temperatures have drawn people away from TV’s on Sundays
(Yes, I actually heard that....)

I don’t know. What is a mainstream media?

I have not watched any NFL games this year, and probably will not watch any more until Kaepernick and his buddies are brought to heel. The choice must be clear and stark. Either support our country or be fired.

It’s a once GREAT league for a STILL GREAT sport.
It has truly dampened my desire to watch the game I love.
Surprised though how so many FReepers dont watch football.
Kind of man’s sport compared to NBA and MLB I would think

> The annual income of 26% of NFL fans is $40,000 or less.
Given the cost of actually attending a game, this demographic is making a huge commitment of their disposable income.

They’ve tried to politicize NFL and doing that is killing it.
A gay-friendly leftist-friendly NFL is the last thing most people want to watch.

The leftists at ESPN might want to consider new carreer paths.

Haven’t yet watched any NFL games this season. I was really sad when I realized, a few years ago, that the Lefties were trying to get rid of football (the Redskins controversy, the concussions problem, etc), but now I couldn’t care less. When they mess with loyalty to my country, well I guess they have done their job. Football was so much fun to watch. Now it is nothing but another political ‘football’ with which to contend. Is there ANYTHING that the Left will not politicize??

Home TV doesn't cost so much, nor does a beer at the local sports bar.
I'd like to see the WIS/Chicago ratings of last night's Bears-Packers game. If you can peel 10% of Packers fans away from that game, it is a MAJOR signal that something is amiss.

I haven't watched one game this year because of that moron Kapernick injecting his racial politics into the game. The NFL made a big mistake that will cost them lots of money. What if people don't come back after Kapernick is done making an ass of himself? I don't think I will come back again.

Not for nothing but didn’t Kap start his protest before the 3rd game of the year? What’s your reason for the first two weeks of the season?

No.
It is a totalitarian religion - an unquenchable lust for power.
