“There was one bozo for the Oakland A’s who knelt. He got sent back to the minors the next day. “
You got a link for that? Everything I’ve found shows he’s still starting for the A’s.
Thank goodness for the hockey season!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I admit, I’ve been a close follower of the NFL...and my team looks better this year than I’ve ever seen, so it really annoys me this is happening now. That said, they’ll be the only game I MIGHT watch and even then it’ll be via an over-the-air transmission. I cancelled my NFL Red Zone subscription.
...missing Thursday Night Football was a breeze as hockey was on.
Schadenfreude or Karma?
I can’t decide.
Shoot, I’d rather watch Curling than the NFL. lol
They are going to have big problems ever winning those people back. I gave up the NFL years ago and can’t think of a single incentive to make me turn my TV on on a Fall Sunday (Monday/Thursday night). I DID watch last year’s SB, but may or may not again.
The current crop of spoiled brats may just be ruining it for the upcoming crop when the $$$$$ isn’t there to overpay them. These guys are truly so stupid they have NO CLUB where the $$$$ comes from. NONE.
Oakland A’s season is over. Nobody is starting for them now.
Once the season ends they do a bunch of roster moves so I have no idea what his actual status with them is today.
Ha! The English Pub in Reykjavik is packed for football matches.
Hopefully they don’t carry the NFL.
Normally I would be watching the Panthers. I haven’t watched a game of any team this year.
Haven’t even followed the scores.
And after all the fists, cursing at the fans, kneeling, possible linemen allowing sacks I will never go back.
They have shown their hearts.
These mostly black players have killed the golden goose as far as I’m concerned.
Anyone who watches social medias and around the internet, especially Youtube, would understand the racial narrative these players, and most likely the management of the NFL is pushing is not true. The backlash comes from Americans of all races.
The NFL was so stupid to jump on this bandwagon but if you listen to the media, the racial injustice narrative is much larger than it really is and they may have been duped by that. That or it’s all coordinated which is highly possible.
Just like many things libtards come to believe and push and fails when reality sets in. What’s happening is true reality setting in. It’s really an Alinsky strategy to make the left’s movement bigger than it really is. I love it when these things fail in reality.
On to the continued boycott of the NFL and its sponsors.

They seem to be okay. Perhaps because some years ago, blacks decided that baseball was a "white man's game" and focused more on football and basketball.
Their places were taken up by hispanic players from the Caribbean and Central/South America. I have yet to see any BLM garbage going on there.
And, with the influx of hispanic players, you see a lot of them giving thanks to the guy upstairs when they get a hit of any kind. I don't think the crazies are yet aware of that or they would be protesting.
That is exactly what SHOULD have happened to Kapernick. There should have been a fine --- that really hurt. And, he should have been benched for a significant number of games. He wasn't; and, we are where we are today because no stern action was taken against him.
However, the fact that he is such a pariah now, of his own making, is some consolation. I do not think he will ever play another NFL game. (If the NFL survives this thing.)
And it will get worse when the public here’s this:

In tax documents recently released by 2ndVote, a conservative watchdog group, we learn that the NFL Players Association (NFLPA) made a donation of $5,000 in 2015 to the Center for Community Change Action, a George Soros funded and adamantly anti-Trump organization.
The NFLPA contributed $5,000 in 2014 to Jobs with Justice, another pro-union group backed by Mr. Soros, and $5,000 in 2013 to the progressive Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy.
On top of the list of contributions, is the Center for Community Change. This sounding organization disclosed Planned Parenthood as a donor on its 2015 yearly report. This wouldn’t be the initial time an NFL body has had something to do with leftists, or those with connections to them. The NFL’s collaboration with the Susan G. Komen Foundation, who as well contributed to Planned Parenthood, has been well preserved.
The NFL is just filthy.

Continue to boycott.
Last week’s decline was probably due to the Typhoon in Wyoming. ;-)
Wow....is that for real.....the moron who kneeled got sent back to the minors? If so, good! haha I knew MLB wouldn’t tolerate that kneeling BS. Go baseball!!!
