Perhaps you are one of the football fans who boycotted the NFL this season either because of player protests during the national anthem or because Colin Kaepernick, who started the movement, was never added to a roster.
Perhaps you even stuck with your protest and didn’t just claim you were done with the NFL only to quickly return to watching a dozen hours every Sunday from the Barcalounger in the corner.
If you are one of those dedicated protestors who are still holding out, Sunday is your greatest challenge.

I’ll be binge watching KDramas instead.
I might give in - I really like Brady, but will probably turn the volume down. Awe crap, maybe not. Working this weekend.
Nope. Ratings bounced back for the NFC final. And in the end as much as people love to hate the Pats they always play great Super Bowls. It’s still THE event.
I’m off to the beach with my GF. I know no one will be there because they’re glued to their sets. Better privacy..
Or binge watch Fate Stay Night animes which my GF likes by some reason.
As I’ve said before, life is great without the NFL.
I’m changing the air in my car tires Sunday and can’t watch.
“I haven’t watched a game all year and I don’t plan on watching the “Stupor Bowel”.”
Same here. When I state it, I do it. Even got into it with some hypocrite, lying Freepers who claim they dont watch but I catch the same liars on Bender’s NFL threads.
I will be watching videos of Game of Thrones and imagining Goodell is on the wrong side of one of the dragons. :-)
Note this. When it came to player thugs desecrating our flag and anthem, the nfl said that was “free speech” and failed to rebuke that anti American “sons of bitches”. BUT , when American Veterans organizations presented an ad to be paid for and run during the Super Bowl ( at a cost in the $millions) , the vets were prohibited from running that ad. No free speech there.
I detest the nfl with such fervor. I will never watch a single minute of the nfl again- much less the steroid freaks in the “SUPER” bowl. I urge all to boycott and not repurchase next seasons tickets. Tell them to go to hell!!.
I would really love to, but I have to sort my sock drawer this Sunday evening.
It will still be the most watched thing on television, but overall viewership will probably be lower than for previous Super Bowl broadcasts.
My guess of viewers: around 102-103 million, compared to 114-115 million of past Super Bowls.
WRONGO, my silly MSM writer. The only NFL I've seen this year is when blipping past it while channel surfing, or if there is a blurb on the local news. Not one minute of it, all year.
As for the much-vaunted halftime show and commercials, meh.
NFL has lost me and thousands if not millions just like me.
NFL, KMA
Seen every Super Bowl since I and looking forward to this one - in second grade a kid got us all in trouble, we missed recess because of him, I learned then it was not fair to punish everyone for the actions of a few.
I won’t watch.
Last time I didn’t watch was 1983. I was at the South Pole and we couldn’t watch using Telex.
LOL
Ratings rebounded a bit for the conference championship games (more so for the AFC than the NFC) but viewership for both games was still less than in previous seasons.
