You can watch enough football between Friday and Saturday. I really don’t need it on Sundays and Mondays.

I want the league to suffer. I want it to trickle down to the players. I want to them to lose their asses to where pay goes down to about a regular paying job.

What I don’t understand are these business owners such as the Murdock kids, NFL owners, stockholders of Apple, Google, Disney, who don’t seem to care that leftists have taken over their business and are systematically destroying their brands and companies! I thought their self-interest would prevent that, but I guess I’m wrong.

Too many people still don’t get the African mentality. They think it is all about color, which is completely irrelevant to their primitive, low IQ, behavior.

I guess these protester/players do not realize their mega- salaries come mostly from TV revenue and will drop significantly when the networks stop paying big bucks as viewership plummets. Getting beat up every weekend for a “measly” $100,000 a season won’t be fun, will it?

The quality of the NFL product isn’t too bad. The DC-LA was pretty good to watch. Too bad the can’t shut up and play.

Unfortunately they won’t feel it until 2021/2022 when their owners have to renegotiate the television network contract. Hopefully their salaries will be cut in half about that time.

Hope the NFL sets a new record for lowest superbowl TV ratings ever. And, I hope they double-down on their stupidity and teams take on heavy losses.

I’ve been a lifelong NFL fan, been to many games, etc. but my level of tolerance for anti-american, bigoted, overpaid thugs is wearing thin. High school football is more entertaining - and there’s not a damn commercial every 5 seconds!

Unsportsman like conduct. Throw the flag. I will march your team backwards to within inches of their goal like if you persist.

If your protest on the field expands any further, you and your head coach will be ejected from the game each with a $50,000 fine.

We can continue this all night and at every game if you insist.

After seeing Zeke Elliott quit on his team yesterday, even Cowboy fans are hoping he starts serving his suspension, that guy seriously needs to grow the hell up.

Which explains why I spent my weekend cutting grass and watching baseball.

At first when the NFL needlessly and wantonly screwed over Rush I was angry and hurt.

but now I realize rush really really dodged a bullet, he would have lost money.

he would have gotten it on the NFL right as it began declining.

I don't care. Their opinions are theirs alone and they certainly have the right to them and to express them.

However, they don't own the team. They don't own the team's uniform they're wearing, nor do they own the field and facilities where they're protesting.

While in uniform on company property, they are at work on company time for which they are being paid.

Making a show of their opinions while in uniform at work on company time is childishly selfish and shows poor character and a lack of judgment and respect.

Their opinions would be better expressed while they are on their own time and wearing their own clothes and at a place other than on company property.

I probably still wouldn't care, but at least I could respect them for their character and I might even watch football again.
