**SNIP**

“You hear ‘coward’ and ‘stand up’ and ‘disgrace,’’ Vernon told the New York Post.

“It’s fine. As long as nobody comes on the field and touches me. You stay where you at, you’re going to be all right. They have a right. Oh yeah, I hear it all the time.”

And then there was the advice: “If they don’t like it, don’t come to the game.’’

And the fact is the fans may be doing exactly that.

I’d rather eat glass than ever watch an NFL game again.

Go and play in Venezuela or North Korea if you hate the USA so much

That Vernon has a big chip on his shoulder.
Not a Team Player at all. It’s all about him and his tantrum.
Before this kneeling nonsense is over, I expect some straight out brawls on the field from a fan who just got cussed out for stating his feelings. I guarantee you, many in the audience will be cheering that fan on. Maybe even help pay his bail.

This is the defensive end who signed an $85 million contract a couple of years ago and has something like all of 4 sacks this season.

His performance on the field isn't any better than his business sense.

There was the advice: “If they don’t like it, don’t come to the game."

Vernon is a black Oberidiot, who fits the description below perfectly! In 10 years if he is still alive, he will begging for food on the streets of some liberal city.

“The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance!” (please read the date this was published)

“But there seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously — after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important… so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be both ignorant and sub-literate every time he opens his mouth. (Most of his fans were just as ignorant and unlettered; the disease was spreading.)”

You got your wish, bucko.

What an idiot. This is like someone at Burger King telling a customer they don’t have to come back if they don’t like the mustard they serve. Owner should not be too happy about that.

The No Fathers League is filled with dim bulbs whose openly stated goal is to spend as little time as possible on a college campus. Leaving Early For The NFL is their version of ascending Mt Olympus, where blurry tattoos full of incomprehensible acronyms and gang slogans, gold teeth and tacky chromed SUVs unable to mount even a parking curb are the coins of the divine realm.

Unable to hold a conversation on any subject other than football, these heads of human livestock follow the herd in petulant displays of antipatriotism. Their grasp of basic economic theory is not just tenuous; it is flat-out destructively backwards as they heap scorn on the paying customer.

Sinking NFL Viewership Is Threatening To Crush Ad Sales
Business Insider ^ | 12-3-2017 | Joe Colli
Posted on 12/3/2017, 5:11:36 PM by blam

When it comes to TV ratings, the National Football League needs a Hail Mary.

Average game viewership has fallen to 15 million this season, down from 16.5 million last year, and the lowest since 2008, according to data compiled by RBC Capital Markets.

The firm also finds that the league’s audience is down on a year-over-year basis, and notes that it hasn’t seen meaningful growth since 2013, when the measure climbed 5%. RBC says this has had an adverse effect on how advertisers view the prospect of buying time slots during NFL games.

“The sustained decline is what worries investors about media’s willingness to offload the NFL’s monetization risk,” analyst Steven Cahall wrote in a client note.
