YES— I am boycotting.

This weekend I am cleaning kitchen cupboards & reorganizing closets instead.

Next weekend, I will bring 4 saddles into the living room & clean & oil them.

Next weekend after that, I will reorganize the garage.

NFL is gone-—and NBA will also be boycotted.

I am tired of over paid ‘athletes’ crying about their status in the USA.

Let them try to find a job in the future—maybe driving a garbage truck

For me, it’s gone way beyond the anthem issue. The NFL has been getting involved in stuff like immigration law and gay marriage and transgender bathrooms, and has joined with the corporate world in openly and defiantly opposing Christian values.

Pepsi and Budweiser come to mind right away. Both sell various products so you need to do research. A few months ago I found out Pepsi owns Quaker Oats.

Don’t watch the crap anyway. But all these unpatriotic effsticks has encouraged me to start telling people to stop watching these overpaid man babies.

Yes, but the feeling is not the same and the constant contemplation is if this BS grows,especially by my team,I am done for good.

Has not affected my viewing habits in regards to the NFL one bit. I did not watch any of the games before, and I STILL don’t watch. So I would not even know which advertisers to boycott.

I watch Super Bowls occasionally however, Superbowls have become lopsided events in of themselves.

Basically as I look back on it I think I really quit watching football after Lombardi passed away.

I'm with you, Buddy - and I hope you will overcome the cancer.

I served with the Marine infantry in Vietnam and all of us from our company who survived combat have had prostate cancer - 100%. It's been 9 years since my surgery and doing fine so far.

Boycott the NFL!

I’ve been an NFL Sunday Ticket subscriber since 1994. I just cancelled my subscription.
