A mystery? Come on!?
Here’s a suggestion. Ask Colin Kapernick.
What could it be? Hmmmm.
Are these ANTI Americans really this stupid?
Mexicans don’t watch the NFL....
If the NFL doesn't know why people are disgusted with them, those in charge are living in a land far, far, away.
Where is Captain Obvious when you need him?
No one knows why??? Are they really that stupid?
too lazy to open this. is this sarcasm?
I know for me, I’m pissed at the NFL for not standing up for America and insisting teams and team members do the same during the national anthem.
A mystery? Really? I can tell anyone willing to listen why I’m boycotting the NFL.
I received this email and think it spells out the feelings most of us have re: the NFL:
Subject: To the NFL commissioner
Commissioner,
I’ve been a season pass holder at Yankee Stadium, Yale Bowl and Giants Stadium.
I missed the ‘90-’91 season because I was with a battalion of Marines
in Desert Storm. 14 of my wonderful Marines returned home with the
American Flag draped across their lifeless bodies. My last
conversation with one of them, Sgt Garrett Mongrella, was about how
our Giants were going to the Super Bowl. He never got to see it.
Many friends, Marines, and Special Forces Soldiers who worked with or
for me through the years returned home with the American Flag draped
over their coffins.
Now I watch multi-millionaire athletes who never did anything in their
lives but play a game, disrespect what brave Americans fought and died
for. They are essentially spitting in the faces and on the graves of
real men, men who have actually done something for this country beside
playing with a ball and believing they’re something special! They’re
not! My Marines and Soldiers were!
You are complicit in this!
You’ll fine players for large and small infractions but you lack the
moral courage and respect for our nation and the fallen to put an
immediate stop to this.
Yes, I know, it’s their 1st Amendment right to behave in such a
despicable manner. What would happen if they came out and disrespected
you or the refs publicly?
I observed a player getting a personal foul for twerking in the end
zone after scoring. I guess that’s much worse than disrespecting the
flag and our National Anthem. Hmmmmm, isn’t it his 1st Amendment right
to express himself like an idiot in the end zone?
Why is taunting not allowed yet taunting America is OK? You fine
players for wearing 9-11 commemorative shoes yet you allow scum on the
sidelines to sit, kneel or pump their pathetic fist in the air. They
are so deprived with their multi-million dollar contracts for playing
a freaking game! You condone it all by your refusal to act. You’re
just as bad and disgusting as they are. I hope Americans boycott any
sponsor who supports that rabble you call the NFL. I hope they turn
off the TV when any team that allowed this disrespect to occur,
without consequence, on the sidelines. I applaud those who have not.
Legends and heroes do NOT wear shoulder pads. They wear body armor and
carry rifles.
They make minimum wage and spend months and years away from their
families. They don’t do it for a few hours on Sunday. They do it 24/7
often with lead, not footballs, coming in their direction. They watch
their brothers carted off in pieces not on a gurney to get their knee
iced. They don’t even have ice! Many don’t have legs or arms.
Some wear blue and risk their lives daily on the streets of America.
They wear fire helmets and go upstairs into the fire rather than down
to safety. On 9-11, hundreds vanished. They are the heroes.
I hope that your high paid protesting pretty boys and you look in
that mirror when you shave tomorrow and see what you really are,
legends in your own minds. You need to hit the road and take those
worms with you!
Time to change the channel.

Answer: Ferals + weak-t*tted commissioner & owners
does the name colin kapernick ring any bells ? then it shows the NFL will no longer play the national anthym starting in 2017
Why is TV viewership down? (NFL)
Oh, I don’t know… But it certainly couldn’t be black racism, gangsterism, anti-Americanism…
Maybe their fans are preferring ballet these days.
NFL big wigs are as dumb as police big wigs who have 10 corpses and a dead perp named Achmed and wonder what was his motive.
I quit watching the NFL when they started showing they don’t like the nation they are the football league of.
I don’t want to oppress them by watching them get paid millions to play a game.
And they think it's a mystery? Clueless.
No mystery. Some viewers have had enough of dragging progressive politics into all aspects of pro. sports.
They look at sports mainly to escape from mundane and futile social concerns of the day. These viewers don’t like having this one escape room polluted with the same PC social concerns they are fleeing. But never mind what we all know. Keep pretending that it’s a big ,baffling unsolvable mystery.
