If you were hurt by players peacefully protesting during the national anthem to raise awareness for police brutality and racial inequality or NFL owners not hiring Kaepernick and want to continue boycotting the NFL, then that’s fine. The league doesn’t need you.

I began the season by boycotting. I have since discovered that I could live through the whole NFL season without missing it, so I am no longer boycotting, simply doing other things.

“If you were hurt by players peacefully protesting during the national anthem to raise awareness for police brutality and racial inequality or NFL owners not hiring Kaepernick and want to continue boycotting the NFL, then that’s fine. The league doesn’t need you.”

The league also doesn’t need our money or our support through Sunday Ticket and/or Red Zone subscriptions or the purchases of clothing, caps or other paraphernalia.

I’m more than good with that.

Adios, Snowflakes.

I was astounded when I read that sentence.

If you were hurt by players peacefully protesting during the national anthem to raise awareness for police brutality and racial inequality or NFL owners not hiring Kaepernick and want to continue boycotting the NFL, then that's fine. The league doesn't need you. (Emphasis added)

Really? Are you trying to win back viewers or stir up the hornet's nest some more?

This sounds like the time they hired Jim Morrison to do an anti-drug PSA:

What he was supposed to do: Say "I'm Jim Morrison, from the Doors" and then say "in his own words" "don't do speed"
Take One:
"Hi, you little a******** out there listening to the radio instead of doing your homework. This is Jim Morrison, from the Do-"
Take Two:
"Hey, how you guys out there doin'? This is your old buddy, Jim Morrison. I sing with a group called the Doors, you mighta heard of them. We done a few songs, but I never wrote a song on speed. Drunk, hell yeahhhhhh -"
Take Three:
"Hey, this is Jim Morrison, from the Doors. I'm here to tell ya, shooting speed ain't cool, so snort it."
Take Four:
"Hello, this is Jim Morrison. Don't shoot speed. ..., you guys, smoke pot."
Take Five:
"Hi, this is Jim Morrison. Shooting speed ain't that smart, shooting speed kills geese, if you shoot a geese fulla speed, that goose is gonna swim in circles forever."
Take Six:
"Hello, this is Jim Morrison from the Doors and I just got one thing to say: Don't shoot speed. Speed kills. Please don't shoot speed, try downers, yeah downers, barbs, tranks, reds, they're much less expensive and -"

Exactly. And that’s why I will continue to stay away. I’d rather watch paint dry
