Sunday, November 12th, I joined fellow veterans in their national boycott of the NFL. However, I do not sense that thousands tuning out the games made much of a difference. NFL players and management still display a screw-you-America attitude. America hating Leftists never back off or surrender ground.
As a matter of fact, to continue poking a finger in the eye of normal Americans, Leftist rag GQ magazine outrageously named Colin Kaepernick its Citizen of the Year. Kaepernick is the player who started NFL players shamefully kneeling during our national anthem. Sports media instantly declared Kaepernick, a mediocre quarterback, a hero. And yet, sports media is obsessed with pressuring an NFL team to hire Kaepernick.
NFL players have been fooled into believing their protest is about fairness and justice. These young men are clueless that Leftists view them as useful idiots in their long-term plan to bring down America economically, culturally, and globally.
Leftists say, "We hate this country because America is unjust; founded on racism and bigotry. America is the greatest source of evil on the planet. So screw your traditional family values. Screw traditional marriage. Screw capitalism. Screw your sacred institutions of Christian faith. Screw free speech. Screw your constitutional right to protect yourself. Screw your philosophy of education, hard work and making right choices to achieve success." We've allowed Leftists to fill our kids' heads with this negative view of their homeland for decades.
Leftists have taught our kids that because we have stolen so much of the world's resources, it is only fair that we erase our borders to allow the world to feed on the breast of America; non-Americans coming and going as they please. Screw immigration laws. Screw vetting for diseases and criminal intentions.

You can’t make them change their behavior but you can make it cost. That’s a life lesson for today.
I file this under boys going to high school proms in dresses being awarded "Homecoming Queen" and Obama getting a Nobel Peace Prize before even taking office. No doubt Bruce Jenner would have been crowned "Miss America" if only he hadn't come out as a Republican.
Just a bunch of warped Leftists awarding each other meaningless trophies and awards to make them feel good about themselves.

The single guy on the landing craft didn’t make D-Day a success or win the war. But everyone on the beach, pressing forward no matter what, did! Don’t do a silly boycott for a day. Give up the NFL forever. Just walk away from the circus and never come back. I hope that no one’s life is so empty that they need the NFL to fill it.
Make the NFL become No Fans Left. Be a permanent boycott of One.
What a defeatest article. The boycott matters if only by getting the complacent to put their time and money to better use.
Boycotts are ineffective against leftist institutions. Leftist feel better being “poorer yet righteous.” This underpins their acceptance of self-defeating confiscatory taxation and “green energy” subsidies, for example.
“America hating Leftists never back off or surrender ground.”
Boy, that is 100% true. That’s the one and ONLY thing to admire about Leftists. They never, never, never, never, never give up!
But to what end? Why try to DESTROY a Nation that grants you the FREEDOM to destroy it in the first place? I hate to break it to them, but they’re not ALL going to be at the top of the Food Chain if that ever happens.
*Rolleyes*
The privileged basturd is still with out a job. There are openings at McDonalds. Let the turd work there. Laughing my ass off.
Okay!
Since you say it ain't worked, I guess we'll all have to abandon ship and get right back to the moronic staring at the TV screen while the heroes of the gridiron provide us a little bit of diversion from the everyday mundane drudgery of life's pursuits.
And here I had found so much other stuff to do while that crap was on.
Oh, well...back to the Lazy Boy.
Not.
I don't care whether THEY got the point or not...I got the point...and I'm the one that matters.
To hell with the NFL.
You don’t have to be intelligent to play in the NFL.
In fact, I wish colleges and universities would stop offering athletic scholarships to first year students. Real students should be able to get in on their own. There is more than enough grant and loan money for real students to get into school.
Most these players would be filling up our prison system if they weren’t propped up by a phony system that calls them student-athletes. Let real students play the game. The boneheads that play in the NFL would have to achieve academically or not have the opportunity.
Fake news.
Boycott worked and is working. Costing the league hundreds of millions and serving as a warning to other sports.
SJWs takrnover and kill the host. That’s what we are seeing. Even business institutions can be destroyed from within by leftists.
Agreed.
I was an NFL fan for 48 years. for years I paid for DirecTV's outrageously overpriced NFL Sunday Ticket and devoted my after-church Sunday time to the games.
No more. The NFL is dead to me.
Problem is, we are few and far between. In spite of some waking up and forsaking the NFL, the overwhelming majority of fans will never give it up. Stadium attendance, while somewhat down from last year, remains mostly full. And I'll bet my paycheck that every playoff game will be sold out and the SB will be as big a deal as ever.
Sooner or later we have to draw a line. We conservatives are famous for shrugging our shoulders as the left push further and further into our lives with their bs.
I’ve placed the NFL in my no-go zone. They don’t deserve my attention, or my money. College football is a worthy replacement.
Make no mistake about the NFL coffers are feeling the pinch.
Shudder
Saying the boycott didn’t work is babble. It has cost around $500 million dollars already and the thugs are still rolling down hill.
When contract renewal time comes around tell me about what a failure the boycott was.
You’re wrong Lloyd.
[But to what end? Why try to DESTROY a Nation that grants you the FREEDOM to destroy it in the first place?]
The root of their hate is against the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.
Ok so they never give up. We respond with a ‘kinder and gentler’ America when we have the upper hand. No more. I think Pence is one of them. 2024 will REALLY test us. 41’s big competition in 88’ was Dole. It might be best to have another fighter as vp in 2020. Non-political bulldog. With Pence running on his own in 8 years it may be more of a fair fight.
Organized boycotts can fail. People are tuning out. Don’t need a boycott.
