So Goodell is now an ‘activist’.

Iceberg ahead...

$7 billion in taxpayer dollars paid for the stadiums around the country so the NFL could become rich.

Pull the plug!

These clowns work for us. Time to say, “You’re fired!”

“They’re talking about criminal justice reform, whether it’s bail reform. Whether it’s talking about mandatory sentencing. They’re talking about changes that, I think, will make our communities better — that there’s bipartisan support for and that need focus.” Yes, I did not make that up – the Commmissioner of the NFL is suddenly pretending to be an expert on which issues have “bipartisan support”. Holy crap.

LMBO. Don't forget the gender pay gap! They're kneeling for that, too.

After 35 years of watching NFL games, we have managed to survive six weeks without tuning in. We are officially cured and are enjoying our NFL-free life.

Personally, I enjoy watching the NFL swirl in the toilet. Adios ball boys!

The NFL is destroyed. The game of football is not.
People, finish off the NFL. Football deserves better than this corrupt political league of fools and libtard hacks.

Just look at the ads during an NFL game and you will see their demographic:
White, Middle Aged, men with erectile dysfunction, who drink beer and love Football.
We pay entertainers millions of dollars to entertain us. We don’t want to know your politics because it is not central to your purpose: entertainment

Not to mention season ticket holders. The NFL already had their money at the start of this season. Just wait until they make their decisions to renew. . . OR NOT! Goodell will be hoisted by his own pittard.

This Ben Garrison cartoon sums it up:

The NFL just ain’t cool anymore, basically white priggish scolding liberals united with black racial bigots are not outside of their little cocoon all that appealing.

[DungeonMaster]

This torn country can't even watch football together and liberals thing we can make single payer health care work.

How many minutes after a disaster does it take for the looters to come out?

[faucetman]

GREAT title!

The players are in a bad spot, and it’s entirely of their own making.

While Kaepernick was fairly clear about his protest, the other players have been ambiguous. There aren’t a lot of specifics and there isn’t a lot of clarity about the nature of their protest.

So we have a lot of ambiguity and fill in the blanks. After taking their strong moral stand, how can they back down now? How can they come into work next Sunday and stand for the anthem? Are the problems they raised solved? Have they been meaningfully addressed? They can’t say they raised awareness because they’re not clear about exactly what they were protesting.

Now, if they stand they look like idiots. If they remain kneeling, they alienate fans.

They didn’t think this through.

This is one of the few articles posted on the subject that totally nailed it.

Goodell is a big part of the problem, and his termination (noisily and without apology) is a necessary first step for the NFL to avoid hitting that iceberg.
