Move the entire NFL to England. Everyone will be happy there.

Finally, time to air-out the NFL’s dirty laundry.

How many cities are burdened with these worthless stadiums?

My favorite NFL corruption story is how they were lauded for their “tributes” to the military with color guards and flyovers at their games. Left unsaid was that the US government PAID the NFL $ 5.4 MILLION in taxpayer money for the privilege of being “honored” by this antitrust-exempt, taxpayer fattened combine.

I guess Liberals are tired of the ‘day-in, and day-out’ struggle with conservatives for the American culture and finally decided to just hijack it outright!

Thank you, DANIEL GREENFIELD, for shining the light of truth on corruption. Drain the NFL swamp.

I love Greenfield. But I’m pretty sure he is confusing Broncos LB Brandon Marshall with former Bronco, current Giant, WR Brandon Marshal.the point is still valid though

[Howie66]

People need to burn up the phone lines to their Senators and Representatives and DEMAND that not one red cent of OUR money be squandered on the NFL.

If the nfl didnt have trust exemptions they would fail due to one or two franchises outspending and outperforming everyone and there would be no more competition...that would be the best way to kill the league...sic transit gloria..

Can someone explain WHY the NFL is considered “Non_Profit”?

If Trump REALLY wants to put a damper on the BS in football right quick, he needs to get the government looking into why every little business in the U.S. has to pay taxes but not the NFL. That needs changing! The NFL needs US, the American people, WE DO NOT NEED THEM.

"The only question is why do we need the NFL?"

Indeed.
I need to put gas in my truck and buy groceries for my family - I don't need the NFL - they are just entertainment.
Like the Dixie Chicks and David Letterman - I pay them to entertain me, when I'm no longer entertained, I have no more use for them.
The NFL no longer entertains me. They insult me.
I have no more use for them.

NFL = Non-American Football League

That monopoly may be washing itself down the drain. Unless the NFL can make itself a government department it depends on the people it is insulting for its revenue and existence. The Democrat Party did not, so far, learn that lesson. NFL will eventually learn but it may be too late.

When the theater cast, instead of bowing to thank the audience at the end of the play comes out on the stage before the play begins and throws bags of urine at the audience the revenue evaporates and so does the theater company.

Anthem bashing is popular with the left. And it’s very popular with the social justice bloggers who increasingly dominate sports journalism, and not just on ESPN. Hating America will score points with the left. It’ll buy the NFL more protectionism from the media and the 2020 Democrats.

Just like Iran and ISIS, maybe the NFL should just move to Iran to be with like minded people.

No more freebies for the NFL, NBA, MLB or anyone else. They make enough money they should compete on a level field.

There is a simple 2 step program if anyone really wants to put the fear of Deplorables into ESPN/NFL/Disney!

Disney owns ESPN!

What networks/? does Disney own?:

Disney/ABC Television Group. Disney/ABC Television Group operates Disney’s broadcast television, cable television and radio businesses. ...
ESPN, Inc. ...
Walt Disney Parks & Resorts U.S., Inc. ...
Lucasfilm Ltd. ...
Marvel Entertainment, LLC.

If freepers are really serious about this issue, they can do a few things this week and save a lot of future money for them.

1. Cancel/cut their cable and go to a good internet to stream the tv shows they watch. Disney/ABC/ESPN and the above are owned by Disney. Each month they get a huge share of your monthly cable bill. Cut the cable, and they lose that monthly bite out of your bill. You will save a lot of money each month.
2. Use Sling Blue TV for streaming the channels you will watch. Sling Blue does not carry ESPN or Disney. So, again the evil Disney/ESPN/NFL gay hate America liberals get nothing from you.

Talk and pompous threats are cheap and not that effective. Pulling the economic plug is like a laser guided smart bomb.

If you really want to smack/hurt ESPN/NFL/Disney just do #1 and #2 above. Also, you will save a lot of money each month.
