Rush is killing it right now. Very powerful.

He says yesterday was the first Sunday he hasn't watched the NFL in 45 years.

Add me into that mix. Did check some scores on phone, but no TV viewing for me.

Happen to be a Cowboys fan, and at least Jerry Jones is standing tall on the issue.

Monday night primetime, so I know this will be pregame fodder for MSM. Hope the Cowboys stand tall with hands over hearts to show what the Anthem is about and they stand for America.....

JJ is all about branding so adding one more to “Americas Team moniker” wouldn’t surprise me.

I grew up in a small town 35 miles north of Green Bay Wisconsin.
My dad had a friend and business associate who played with the Packers in the 1930’s who would get us in the games and introduce us to the players.
My heroes as a kid were Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Jim Taylor, Elijah Pitts, Ray Nitschke, Lionel Aldridge.
The 1966 season they went 12-2 and won the World Championship (pre-Superbowl) and then won the first two Superbowls.
After over 50 years I quit cold turkey last year.

The NFL is making it clear they do not like being this nations football league.

Rush sounded like me. It was a very sad day for me. I know some aren’t into football but it was something I played growing up into college and just loves the escape. It didn’t hurt being able to root for Brady and Belichick for the past couple of decades.

And we make it a family affair. My daughters are all grown (in college and/or graduated) and come over on Sundays with all kinds of drinks and food and we just chill.

I texted them at 10AM when I saw Kraft’s statement and told them I will not be watching football. It was very sad as if something ended. And I just did some yard work. I’ll get used to it.

I will miss the family aspect, as my daughters are fans and refuse to follow my lead so the’ll watch it elsewhere. For this I am so angry at the players and officials who did this.
