That ain’t going to make it go away. That just makes Fox complicit with the NFL.

Hm... The way I see it, Fox is not complicit, because they are not broadcasting the protests. So the players’ protests are meaningless and unseen by viewers. Either way, there will be no NFL seen on our TVs until the NFL and its players apologize for their appalling and idiotic behavior. Even if they do, I still may not care about them.

No, it doesn't. It means Fox is depriving these spoiled millionaire players of their opportunity to insult this country.

It's not an ideal solution, but it's better than letting these display their un-American thuggery to millions. Indeed, it's an interim measure while everyone waits for the NFL to get its sh-t together, because it's going to end up gone if it doesn't.

And the fans will still boycott the NFL. Everyone has to make that very clear that this is what the consequences are.

The NFL has one way out of this, and one way only, and that is to show respect for its fans and make these players behave like civilized Americans instead of spoiled ghetto rats.

Ultimately, the fans are more important than the players, because without the fans, there are no players, no teams, and no league.

It's amazing to watch the NFL commit financial suicide like this due to political correctness. But that's precisely what's happening...

I agree. This is disgusting. We’ll be going out of our way not to watch Fox Sports.

Right, now they edit out the crowd booing and show the edited video of the protesters at halftime, gotta control the narrative.
