I was thinking of ending my “no games watched for 3 years/seasons boycott”, but I need some kind of “kneeling during anthem monitor/watchdog site”...I hear it is hard to tell what is going on during the anthem because the national TV networks are going to commercial during the anthem (suggested by the NFL?). Need spectators in the stadium to snap photos and post somewhere.

Free agency back in the 90’s killed the NFL for me. I found it hard to remain loyal to a team when in just a few years, most of my guys would be playing for the enemy.

[What’s an “NFL”?]

An over-hyped, over-priced, over-promoted sideshow.

At one time fun to watch for competitive games, it descended into a Social Justice Warrior version of Thugball making Gillette-level errors.

This led to fan dissatisfaction, realizing they were being bled dry of disposable income and tiring of constant Leftist lecture by spoiled brats.

The stadia were turned into soccer fields for children until the exorbitant maintenance costs rendered the structures as obsolete as shopping malls from the 1980’s.

Most structures were eventually bull-dozed. Many municipalities, no longer able to afford diverting tax dollars to these money-pits, eventually auctioned the leveled properties to the highest bidder.

Archaeologists were to eventually find a single “pig sock” with the initials “C.K.” embroidered into the material. It was their conclusion this was somehow related to the final demise of this so-called "industry".

Even worse, now the NFL is going to embrace gambling.

Gambling is killing sports.
