Honestly, I wish I liked football so that I could boycott the NFL.
I was never an NFL fan (I’d watch the Super Bowl when the Giants were in it, but really don’t care otherwise), but when a game is on anywhere around me now I’m shocked by the number of commercials.
Any time I try to watch the local 11:00 news it is always being preempted by the last 1/2 hour of the NFL game that was supposed to be over by 11:00 (according to the guide); that says a lot - mainly that they are 3 1/2 hour games now.
A bunch of libs on a non-political forum (though we discuss politics) that I’m on are blaming the ratings decline on bad commentators, bad officiating, and bad rule changes. Anything but Kaepernick and the like.
