I have only seen one NFL game in the last 40 years or so and I used to love it. I wasn’t boycotting, just no longer interested. Always on TV.

I will never watch another one.

No more NFL hats, T-shirts or sweatshirts for me. They were overpriced, but I bought them as a fan. That fan worship ended and I’ll never buy another product - besides not watching the games anymore.

ANd the most frustrating thing about it is, the Premiere quarterback in the league playing for my favorite team, and now the NFL decides to be a bunch of flagburning, baby and cop-killing, gun-grabbing, Khmer-Rouge-Lovin' Left wing Progladykes.

If you are an NFL fan, do what I did as a huge Mizzou fan: I stopped being a devoted fan. After 30 years. No more traveling to or watching games. No more swag (I owned more than 100 Mizzou-related items - clothes, blankets, clocks, cups, flags, neckties, trash cans, you name it). They have not received a penny from me in the last two years, and they never will again. I love that their enrollment is dropping. I now cheer for Mizzou to lose, which was inconceivable to me just a few years ago. Hit the NFL where it hurts.

Here's how you know that the NFL as a brand is absolutely in the sh!tter right now:

There have been media reports, thousands of fan comments, and online discussions on various NFL and related websites ... and yet most of these people probably couldn't tell you the score of a single NFL game today.

These NFL multimillionaire players who are kneelers and no shows for the National Anthem are COWARDS - and spitting in the face of America, our military, and our veterans. Go play football in some third world craphole like those I fought in as a US Army Combat Infantryman.

Interestingly, the NFL actually has a lower rate of arrests than does the population of the USA as a whole, according to www.nflarrest.com - which is a gem of a site I found in my research. One could argue that this is because many of these athletes are protected from arrest like other celebrities.

Now control for the average salary being $1M. That will even out the "protected from arrest" factor and clarify that they are not at all comparable to "the USA as a whole".

Michael Vick, who served 21 months in prison for animal abuse played a couple more seasons after his release. As of late last month, he is being paid by Fox Sports as an NFL Studio Analyst.

Seriously? Michael Vick should be unemployed. At best.

If they were kneeling on the sidelines to pray before a game the same people cheering them on would be in a panic and screaming about how they don’t have the right to do that on the field.

I watched about 10 min. of the Panther- Saints game. Came in after the game started.
Turned to NASCAR and another race from Austria.

Later I found out Julius Peppers of the Panthers demonstrated.
Sorry I watched even that much of the game now.

Here’s a guy that got 4 yrs. of college given to him at UNC. Can’t say college education because he majored in Black/African Studies.
IOW he learned how to hold a spear and tap an ox’s neck for fresh blood.
Doubt he can read, write beyond elementary school level.

And he makes more money in a year than I will make in a lifetime.

Oh, and basketball coach Roy Williams has said his national champ team will not be going to the White House.

Screw NFL and UNC. I’m a Duke fan anyway.

Oppressed? discriminated against? Unfairly treated?

Time to start following hockey. Mostly Canadian players who don’t disrespect the country or flag. Fast paced, exciting sport.
