Not gonna watch the Kapernick team, or Philadelphia, or Miami. We’ll see what teams get added to that list.

I don’t bother watching.

If they want to make a statement, they can do it on their own time.

When they are on the clock, I want to be entertained...

Of course not. CNBC of all people was discussing it today. Their take - “over-exposure”. That’s the ticket.

The continued loss of viewership will hurt the NFL where it counts: ad revenue. Not this year, but next year. The NFL front office should make a public declaration stating players ‘protesting’ will be fined the equivalent of a week’s pay, the team $50K, and the player will sit on the bench the next week, again losing a week’s pay. You can protest, but it will cost you. Ask the Dixie B*tches about that one.

Of course it doesn’t.
Nothing to do with anti-American athletes.

Agree. As long as the NFL tolerates this behavior I’m swearing off any and all support including TV viewership.

Fug 'em all! I'm boycotting the NFL, including my beloved Bucs! At least until November, when I'll head to the Bucs & Bears game in Tampa. Bears fans usually outnumber Bucs fans.

Someone needs to tell them that football has been overexposed for quite some time.
