If I played for the Bills, I would gladly take the 15 yards and pay the fine and put him on the IR.

Bills are starting to look like a pretty decent team. They should make the playoffs this year.

Not normally a Bills fan.

However against the 49ers, I will be a big fan.

Go Bills!

Up until Kaepernick launched his “I Hate America” tour, I was a fan of the 49ers for more than 40 years, having grown up in the Bay Area. I will NOT cheer for that team under any circumstance until Kaepernick and the other attention whores on that team are gone.

The National Felons League?

I don’t want to oppress them by watching them play a game for millions of dollars.

I'll gladly root for the Bills.

For obvious reasons.

Jed York deserves the blame here.

If they guarantee some late hits I would turn on my first game this season.

It’s been many years since I missed, at least the following, of a “Colts” game. I haven’t watched the last 3. I checked the scores afterwards.

I am in that crowd that is souring over the NFL. When they were “ALL ABOUT PROFIT”, I was fine with the product. I didn’t like it, but gave them a pass on the dumb stuff like painting the country pink for breast cancer (and apparel sales). The throwback uniforms are stupid but they get to market and sell more apparel. The advertising has gotten WAY out of control. I could look past all of it. Sure, I started recording the games a few years ago so I could fast forward through the 2 hours of commercials. I still looked forward to watching my team play, regardless of how bad they were.

But now the NFL is All ABOUT PROFIT except politics.

Entertainment in ALL forms is the equivalent of my own personal jester. I choose what distracts me as I wish and on my time. Those rich athletes, thespians and entertainers that are broadcast liberally in every media outlet at all times of the day exist to distract me (all audiences really) from an important contribution to our God and our nation. And I pay for the convenience of having that distraction at my whim (Cable, Internet, movies, theater, sporting events, etc.). When my intended distraction introduces that which I have chosen to be distracted from, it is no longer “entertaining” to me. So I dismiss that jester in search of another whim of my choosing. In the case of the NFL, count the athletes as teams of talented jesters provided by the same company.

In short, I lose interest and choose something different when I have to consider politics to be entertained or distracted. I have the power to dismiss them. They don’t produce anything that I NEED. Therefore, they won’t work for me anymore.

That should be everbody’s attitude toward celebrities. Let them earn your respect, time and money. ;o)

I hope the Bill’s win the game and break the SOB’s back so he can never stand for anything ever again. F**K the 49ers and Kaeperdick.

Trump should offer $1000 to charity for every time he gets sacked.

There’s talk of a boycott but if you know Bills ans, they will be there.

We can hope that it is the lowest rated football game of the century.

If I was still following the NFL I would be rooting for them too, but I’m not. This ex Bills fan went to the first game they ever played in the AFL, but I love my country more than football.

The Bills beat the Patriots and the Rams, please let them slaughter the 49ers and embarrass Krapernick.

I won’t be watching, but my wife’s best friend is a long time Bills fan so I’m sure to get updates.

The Chuck Bednarik hit on Frank Gifford comes to mind.
