The NFL is not on in my house today.
What say you?
Instead, watch The Men Who Built America:

Wow
Many years ago, I rejected the moronic corporate requirement that employees be sport spectators. Rejected the pushes for withholding from checks for so-called charities that were anti-family, too, despite the firings. There are other kinds of work. It’s time to study, design and build. School is never out.
I’m out!!!
I watch Golf instead. I can learn something personally helpful from that sport.
Looks like we’re going back to how it used to be, when College Football was King, and the NFL was an afterthought, that really was the case until the 1970s.
I watched Manchester United, destroy my Everton boys this morning.
Well i have to admit it was on my tv long enough for me to reach for the remote.
Hell with em.
Prima balerina, overpaid freaks of nature anyway who are terribly edumacated for the most part.
Started last year and continues uninterrupted. Feels great!
I haven’t watched an NFL game since Paul Hornung and Jim Taylor retired.
Have a friend playing in England. He us on the USA team, but I do not even know what open it is.
NFL been off in our home for many years.
College football spiraled down the same drain.
Local High School football in the fall, Lacrosse in the spring is the way to go.
Have fun with your neighbors. Watch all the neighborhood kids grow up.
More often than not, the games are pretty good too.
Has something to do with “skin in the game”.
meh, my hubs is clicking back and forth, so it is on sometimes.
That could be the most absurd statement i’ve ever read.
My father and uncles all served in WWII or Korea.
They were MEN. They all watched baseball.
There’s something wrong with you in a bad way if you really believe that
Or you’re just the grumpiest #### in the history of the world :)
I like baseball and football a lot.
They have both become prominent sports that kind of personify the male experience for a lot of people.
To see either destroyed, would remove some of what Americana (at least socially) is.
It’s a shame what the NFL has signed on to.
On Super Bowl Sunday, the presentations have many times been patriotic. Now they seem to be attempting to advance the destruction of our nation.
The disrespect shown the flag and our anthem, it’s just incredibly ignorant to back this sort of thing.
Kaepernick started it. Then others joined in.
I expected the league front office to come down on the side of loyal Americans, but it then sided with the Kaepernick kooks.
Now you have the players voting a guy that isn’t even in the league, as player of the week.
Couldn’t be anymore disrespectful of our nation than that.
Stadiums should be empty next week. Ratings on weeknight games should be pushing 10-20% of former levels.
This “S” needs to stop right here.\
The NFL and ESPN deserve to die, if they can’t turn this around. And I don’t see them even realizing they absolutely must do so.
that was agreat mini series! I learned a lot.
Not in my house. If they want to be America hating crybabies and criminals they can, by they’ll get no support or business from me.
I got to meet them as a kid.
My dad had a friend who was a former Packer who got us into the games at Lambeau Field.
