A great reminder. I couldn’t care less about football, so I’ve been thinking that I’ve already been “boycotting” the NFL for the past couple of years.

I have been going to Buffalo Wild Wings for the computer trivia game, whether the NFL was on or not. Now I will *not* go to Buffalo Wild Wings, whether the NFL is on or not. If these kinds of stadium proxies start showing sales drops as well, Goodell might start to wise up.

For sports bars that have difficulty not showing the games, they could switch to local content during commercials denying the NFL advertisers exposure.

From the late 70s to the mid 80s, I bought football and baseball cards regularly.

I quit buying and they wound up in a box in the closet.

Fast forward to 1993 after I got out of service and I go through the closet.

They’re all gone and a bunch of other stuff was broken.

For a while, my mom did some babysitting and the little terrors apparently had free reign.

“Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t think the NFL knows how much it has pissed off millions of Americans.”

Why would they know? For decades now, every abuse, every atrocity committed by American Negroes has been met by a chorus of, “Well, listen to me, Mr. Big Shot. If you’re looking for the kind of white man who takes abuse and never sticks up for himself, I’m your man. You can treat me like dirt, and I’ll still kiss your butt and call it ice cream. And if you don’t like it, I can change.”

How astounded they must be at any sign that some people oppose the destruction of our borders, our language, and our culture. The only reason any white person would object to America’s destruction, of course, is racism.

Racism: you know, when someone hates another race for their skin color, as every American Black hates every American White.

Lindsey Manasco, a 31-year-old manager, waitress and bartender at the Chalmette-located wingery, confirmed the restaurant's decision.
"That’s disrespectful to the United States," she told The Advocate.

That young lady sounds like a keeper !

Those players are likely all retired.

No you are not wrong. They remain clueless. When their bottom line continues to erode they will then start to notice. I have refused to watch the NFL now in my 2nd season..

Wife born and raised in Chalmette...we live in Slidell, now. I am Retired Navy....Soon as I saw the Saint's today I turned TV off and chucked all my Aint’s gear in the trash....that's it....Saint's suck......if you want to read a masterpiece of BS read the owners, Benson's, statement on the matter of players’ protest.

Trump is brilliant! He's now forced all the NFL bigots out into the open...everybody knows whose who now...especially the players know.....soon there will be discord on the teams as they take sides...animosity will grow, fights, etc....can't wait for the whole stinking mess to implode

In the meantime Hillary walks around free, Obamacare is the law of the land, tax reform has hit a wall, build the wall has been reduced to repairing what’s already there and construction of a few prototypes, Russia still controls 20% of our uranium and so on and so on but millions of people are upset about what a few players were doing during the national anthem.
