I haven't watched football in a while, mostly golf, and if it has hit the college ranks as well, football is pretty much done.
It’s over Now. As a previous purchaser of NFL ticket I quit that last year when Kapercrack started this lunacy and have not watched a game since.
And if Black "victims" are their focus, why aren't they kneeling for the 10 Blacks murdered in Chicago last weekend?
Why are you waiting until next Sunday, it’s over now.
Afraid of their teammates.................
Huh. While the NFL spent their Sunday putting down a knee, another three people were killed in Chicago. Wonder how many of the 473 people shot so far this year there might not have been had these players instead chose to bring awareness to the never ending shootings in Chicago instead of their pretty empty and meaningless current protest.
I do know one thing, we’ll never find out.
Don’t be surprised - they won’t
The arrogant, disconnected attitudes of the NFL, and its players, have been many years in the making.
Being typical monopolists and crony-capitalists, Roger Goodell and the NFL owners want fly-over Americans to buy their products, but they have totally conformed to the attitudes of our leftist elites, who pay for their stadiums and live with them in the media.
I want to see a Christian player protest over abortion.
You know the NFL would shut that down in a minute.
“Yes, the term pitch was applied to cricket first, not soccer.”
No kidding...as I posted it was used for cricket first, but not borrowed. Pitch was an act of clearning a field, so ANY FIELD cleared for playing whatever game had that word attached at some point. Geez.....
We live in the best country in the world ,, people are dying to get here and I don’t see any of the so called VICTIMS leaving for a better country . Even our poor are better off . Stand up or don’t take our money ,,, why should we finance your lavish stadiums or pay for attendance so you can flip US the bird by sitting or kneeling . The NFL can go to hell !!!
Plenty of whites support liberal causes but is it enough to save the liberal causes? It wasn't enough for Hillary.
So... I have Amazon Prime and the Thursday Packers-Bears game is going to be free for me. Haven’t watched in a long time.
Trying to figure out which would send a bigger impact. Leave it completely off or tune in until they start the protest and then turn it off. I’m sure they will be able to track the figures on how many are streaming. If we could get enough prime folks to start and then stop might send a little more message???
Thoughts?
” Exactly how much running does the goalie do in a game?”
My brother was a goalie in college. His team went on to win national championship back in the 90’s. He now, @ 40, needs hip replacement due to the many injuries he received while playing goalie all those years.
He did plenty of running, conditioning. He was and still is in the best shape he can be.
So, how much running does the kicker do in American football? Or the quarterback for that matter? Why don’t you just say “I hate soccer and will watch American football forever regardless if every one of them takes a knee from now on?” You’d feel much better....
Please post pictures of “plenty of white players” taking a knee.
“I think rugby is a better sport.” We watch that too.....
“Call Northside 777” was from 1948. Stewart is still tall and rail thin but without his familiar stutter. Great supporting actors include Richard Conte and Lee J. Cobb.
I have already stopped watching the NFL. It is over for me after enjoying it since my father and I started watching in the mid 70s. I still watch WVU on Saturdays and then I will not watch football until their next game.
It was hard the first three weeks last year when I stopped, but now I do not give a happy crap what happens to the over paid babies in the NFL.
A movement to boycott this season’s Super Bowl and its sponsors must start NOW.
