I cannot understand what a big deal they make about SB commercials, they aren’t anything special.

Yes, and they are playing like garbage, but like the typical Leftist whine, 'we are trying hard' so that is what counts!

I hope they get rid of that farce for a coach!

It is hard to put the air back into a bubble once it has burst. This “NFL sucks” bubble has been building for a long time.

He should be traded, he is a cancer for a team.

And he drops passes as well which are very catchable.

Many Patriots fans are bandwagon fans, they will drop off once Brady is gone and the Patriots become a losing franchise again.

The games are unbelievably boring, too long, too many penalties, too many rules, too many rule changes, too expensive to attend, a ripoff all around.

I don’t know what a catch is any more.

I’ve been with them since they drafted Jim Plunkett #1 out of Stanford. I went through 1-15 and might again but I was, am and will be with them.

Both McAdoo (head coach) and Jerry Reese (general manager) should have been fired before this season started.
Giants had NO running game and a really bad offensive line.
They did nothing to resolve either problem, and to add insult to injury, Manning needs to be replaced too - three years ago.

The protests are the primary reason for fans abandoning the NFL.

That just barely edged out Pontificating Liberal Sportscasters as the main reason we’ve stopped watching.

It’s a GAME, Idiots! We used to watch it for relaxation and diversion from the constant political bickering, murderous Islamic fanatics and Hollywood scum that dominated the TV airwaves.

So what does the NFL decide to give us?

Colin Kaepernick & Co.
Justin Timberlake, Janet Jackson & Madonna
ESPN - who is more interested in the Vegas betting line, Fantasy Football and Player Soap Opera than in the GAME!

"Who cares."

The nfl, its "games", their "scores", the players are ALL totally irrelevant and utterly meaningless.

The nfl has become like the ancient gladiatorial games, the Circus Maximus; the famous gladiators and the charioteers of "renoun" from the ancient Romance Empire.

Their arenas are nothing but crumbling ruins and who can recall or name any of their "famous" gladiators or charioteers? The answer is no one! This is the fate that awaits the once "glorious" nfl:

Ozymandias

I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: `Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear --

"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.'

Percy Bysshe Shelley

This is the future that awaits the nfl, and they destroyed it all with their own hands!

ALL THEY REALLY CARE ABOUT IS THE MONEY, THAT IS ALL!

They literally strangled to death their fan base "goose that laid all of their billion dollar nfl solid gold eggs" with their own hands. The goose is permanently dead and they killed it! Now, all too late they want to put Humpty Dumpy back together again and resurrect the goose from the dead.

This is rich, the National Felon League chose to side and kneel with hate America, only blm, sjw, hate whitey, communist anarchists over America and their own nfl fan base and now their fan base has been totally alienated and the very monsters they willingly aligned themselves with have turned on them and are now eating them alive.

All too late the nfl has awoken to the reality that the entire league, has an INCURABLE CASE OF SELF INFLICTED FINANCIAL EBOLA and is hemorrhaging money out of every conceivable orafice to the tune of HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS A WEEK with no way out and no end in sight.

The once financially lucrative nfl is circling the toilet bowl into obscurity and is quickly becoming totally irrelevant and financially worthless.

We choose to STAND with Americans for America; we choose love of country, we choose patriotism, we choose to "Live Free or Die", rather than "huddle up", "bend the knee" and subjugate ourselves, our families, and our beloved nation to the black racist, socialist, sjw, PC tyranny and perverted ideology of the National Felon League.

They want us to compromise our patriotism, our love of country, flag and nation and symbolically join the NFL in show of rebellious "unity" but "What fellowship does light have with darkness, good with evil (and subjugation for the sake of 'unity')?"

The answer is a resounding NOTHING! We can have no "unity" with those who hate our nation, its flag, its values and with those who despise us.

The anti-American National Felon League has, to quote Admiral Yamato: "awoken a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve".

We are at war; the NFL started this cultural war against US, against America and they are attacking EVERYTHING WE STAND FOR, BELIEVE IN AND HOLD NEAR AND DEAR.

Like WWII, there can not be any, truce, or "compromise" for the sake of their false notion of "unity", no "cessation of hostilities" with the nfl and those who have made themselves our enemies with out a cause.

We Americans who love our county more than any game have now taken up the fight forced upon us by the nfl and like "the greatest generation" we too will settle for only one outcome: NOTHING LESS THAT THEIR TOTAL SURRENDER!
