The NFL is begging for competition. The NFL must die. Long live football.

***send the POS the same letter again***

Funny you say that; I am a compulsive record keeper and 'puters were made for the likes of me. When this social travesty started I went to my archive files... and it wasn't there. A text file with some incidental stuff, but not the original letter. grrrr 😢

“I would take this with a grain of salt, but if this is true I’m 100% done with the Patriots, and there is no bigger Pats fan than I am. Don’t like this at all. I was planning on coming back for the 2018 season and rooting only for the Pats.”

Not me. Done, finished, over. Virtually ALL of them think like Conlin, even if the smarter ones know enough not to show it on the field. Before Conlin, we saw them all lining up and respecting the flag during the National Anthem. We didn’t care whether they were filled with hate or not, we just saw respect. Now we don’t even see that.

It’s a new day for many, if not most, America-loving people.

Their public stance was clearly lies and spin. Of that most of us here had no doubt. This meeting confirms that. The NFL for almost my entire life was an overwhelming success. This of course breeds arrogance and a perfect place for idiot liberals to thrive. This recent problem is the first where the NFL has seriously stumbled that I can recall. The decline will continue since life without the NFL has now taken a foothold in at least a certain section of the public and slowly this will grow and eat away more and more of their cake.

People should watch the games to list the advertisers to call and complain. Once they get the list, then stop watching.

On second thought, someone on FR should list the advertisers and contact points and we would not need to watch at all.

Don’t forget that robert kraft sent the team jet down to Florida to fly Adolph Hogg and his little fascist sh*tstain friends and family up to Washington DC for the protest.

The meeting reads like a high level version of the blind leading the blind.

How funny, I accidently typed bling instead of blind. I should have left the typo.

Interesting news.

Looks like the Jags may soon be moving to London for good.

The Black Plague is killing the NFL

The cultural destructive forces at play costs untold sums of money.

The meeting sounds like it is accurate.

It is exactly what I think the position of the owners and players are on this topic.

Goodell can take his “secret meeting” and his Quisling league and put them both where the sun doesn’t shine.
