The NFL, NFLPA, and the league's corporate sponsors and broadcast partners are TERRIFIED that the President just gave Americans the green light to go after the NFL with the same zeal that took down Target Corporation and Kellogg's, Incorporated.

We're talking a boycott that could cost the NFL several BILLIONS per year in revenue as TV viewership and stadium attendance takes a major nosedive. That could make the corporate sponsors and broadcast partners openly wonder can they justify the massive per year spending on the NFL from here on out.

Look at what happened to the movie industry this past summer as ticket sales fell 16% compared to Summer 2016. The NFL could suffer a similiar fate.

Let one of the sanctimonious NFL owners hire Kaepernick. They know he is bad for business and the NFL. Similarly, they handled Michael Sam, the first openly gay NFL football player, who could not make an NFL roster. The reality is that many NFL players did not want a gay player in the league. Those who said it publicly were roundly chastised.

Trump is not PC. He speaks the truth, which resonates among the majority of the American people. The NFL, heavily subsidized by the taxpayers and their farm system, i.e, the NCAA, is apoplectic that the President of the United States is calling them out. The idea that the NFL is the champion of free speech is ludicrous. Let some NFL player come out about social issues with opinions that don't pass liberal muster and you will see them crackdown on the offenders. The NFL wouldn't allow the Cowboys to wear a decal supporting the Dallas police who were slain by a BLM terrorist.
