Looking back on the 2017 season, the empty seat will be the leagues MVP.

The most valueless player...

Haha. Lifelong suffering Browns fan. Oh sure the Brian Sipe, Bernie Kodak years were fun but this is just an awesome picture.

I was so hard core, while living in Dallas I banned the NFL from my house when the NFL let that fag Modell move to Baltimore. Hopefully he’s burning in a vat of feces these days. Not that I was bitter. Maybe now since my give a crap meter is low I can forgive that asshole.

Lol, i'll be very pleased to see that these mega millionaires may soon be earning just a little more than the folks at a drive through fast food joint. And they deserve it too for all the p!ssing on the country & the American people.

that's 1 of the problems with all the money they are suddenly making, it can make people more into fools & give them a sense of power & entitlement that they are better then everyone else.

Is it me ...or has the discussion of the NFL and concussions died down a lot i the past month or so? It appears that nanny state liberals now have to root for the NFL despite the brain damage caused to its players.

That picture is prior to the opening kickoff. By halftime there were more people in the seats. Late-arriving crowd. There were still plenty of empty seats but they were all in the club/upper bowl levels. It was nowhere near a full house.

That NFL decision gave conservatives a rare opportunity to take a whack at Black Lives Matter and the manipulations of Obama’s collusion with the media Instead pundits are letting the media divert that direction to “cum bye ja” and a dozen other directions. Because it diverts the focus
away from media complicity.

The problem here is not connecting the dots to the democrats who created racial divisuon when Obama through the abuse of his office and the “Bully Pulpit” began creating “victims” out of blacks engaged in criminal activities who were not just resisting legal arrest but responding by attacking legal authority and endangering their lives .

Until this get exposed along with its political purposes which was creating racial division and a impeachable proof barrier as the continung political discourse which has been expanded to include “white guilt” will continue.

When blame the cops for cold blooded killings started by Obama’s it was through his use of the Bully Pulpit. It began with his comments during the Zimmerman trial.

Those inspired at least 10* deadly assaults ending in death of any non black who wandered near or in “hoods” controlled by members cf black ganags. One such noteable case is that of Christopher Lane an Australian murdered by Crypts while visiting Duncan Oklahoma.*(At the time the media avoided any reference made to “For Trayvon” reason given in those murders by the culprits mainly gang members. Of the I think the figure (10)is more like 20 racially inspired murders)

Obama was never held accountable for his inflamatory remarks. And because he wasn’t he contunued hammering away creating a wider racial division targeting police authority which resulted in cops being targeted and murdered in cold blood.

Former Mlwaukee County Sheriff David Clark appeared on FOX Business to discuss not only Chicago but also the anti-American NFL protests against the American flag and the National Anthem.

Hah! NFL Backlash So Bad "Empty Seat" Wins Giveaway Prize at Browns Game

I suspect that would be happening at Browns games even without the take-a-knee stuff going on.

How to finally end Cleveland's love affair with the pathetic Browns.

This year, a lot of promising rookies were drafted. Think back to the stunt where ten players knelt in a circle for opening ceremonies. It's been said the coach and management knew about it and didn't stop it.

Now they look like they're paid to lose (so it seems from local newscast reporting). Some of Coach Hugh Jackson's decisions, from what's said in the newscast, are bizarrely awful. Turns out the "great QB" was out partying Friday night, not a good look when he's been removed from games for lousy play.

Could it be that a lot of the players are more focused on how to offend the (former) fans than in mentally preparing for the game? Could it be that Hugh Jackson doesn't "get it", and maybe isn't bright enough or in tune enough with community values to be coaching?

As long as those empty seats were paid as season tickets the team couldn’t care less.

Next year may be different but they’re counting on the short memory of the public to cover that.

I suspect that it will take awhile for the full impact of the boycotts. Many season tickets are fully paid for, and the lucrative deals by the sponsors and networks are signed contracts.

The NFL leadership, corporate sponsors, and networks may be waiting this out, expecting it to be temporary. They are collecting more money than they deserve.

I may or may not turn my tv back on next season. Once couch potato time has been used doing other things, the other things may win permanently.

Good luck to the “fans” who like the mindless insults and protests that result in nothing.

They did it on foreign soil. Again.

Why we're protesting during the US national anthem at American Football games

First story I saw this morning. What a cheery way to start the day; I’m smiling. I hope the prize was season tickets. Heh heh!

The pacifier as mouth guard is on point. What these kneeling bastards are saying is, “THIS COUNTRY ISNT WORTH FIGHTING FOR. IT ISNT PERFECT. OUR SOLDIERS ARE STUPID. OUR FLAG IS WORTHLESS BECAUSE IT DOESNT SYMBOLIZE RAINBOW UNICORNS POOPING SKITTLES.”

Our country is following the best founding documents in effing HUMANITY. Our country has been TRYING for freedom for the common man since DAY ONE. If you don’t understand that, you’re too dumb to play a sport for us. Also: newsflash: not even your children are perfect. How is a whole country of millions supposed to be?

Though Santa Claus is pretty perfect, isn’t he? I bet he has a North Pole Football team. Go clear the ice and get those cleats. Go red, go green!
