If ratings drop so do the salaries eventually and then I want to hear what these spoiled brats think then . Let them play to an empty stadium for peanuts . I call it self imposed oppression .
Beat the rush as I bailed on the NFL 6 years ago. No regrets here as I broke a long standing addiction/tradition.
The ratings drop is sad.
Needed a sarc tag, apparently, lol.
I get the NFL and basketball...why MLB?
I need to know. Have had a renewed interest in baseball, but maybe I’m missing something?
I only watch Packer games now vs 3 or 4 on most weekends last year.

GOOD!
As I said on another thread, if you can boycott, boycott. If you can’t give up your team, diet - watch your team, skip every other game. If enough people do this, the NFL will be brought to its knees, and Goodell will grow a pair overnight.
Good one
Ditto.
Brave men and women gave their lives in defense of the Flag that the NFL is spitting on.
The least we as Patriotic Americans can do is to stop watching the NFL (yes even your beloved Broncos) until they show the proper respect for that flag.
A small sacrifice, if I dare say so.

Yep, could not agree with you more. Actually I gave up on the NFL years ago when all the antics started following big plays and exciting scores. All the grandstanding turned me right off.
Not a single down this year. Not a one. I figure I have more time for reading and they’ll have more time for post-adolescent millionaire political activism. Win-win!
I quit when they kept Rush Limbaugh from owning a team. It’s going down hill faster now. No more worship of the living gods. (little g)
My formerly beloved Seattle Mariners, whom I have been supporting since their inception in 1977 finally decided to be "inclusive" and have a "gay pride appreciation night' at the ballpark.
There were open displays of "affection" by the perverts, many in front of families with children.
I then just decided, SCREW 'EM too, I'm not supporting this crap anymore.
My personal choice.
They were smart to skip broadcasting the entire national anthem segment of the Carolina / SF game this Sunday. I hope they are feeling serious pain over this crap.
Some of the boycotts we have to do are more painful than others
You and me both. I got plenty of other living to do.
Yep...I quit professional sprts all together. I don;t support any of it, NFL, NBA, NHL, NASCAR, MLB, PGA,.....all of it.
Much happier and healthier.
