The NFL is sh*t and they love having Olberman doing NFL TV. They practice reverse racism, they screw taxpayers to build stadiums and they are a monopoly.

Turn of the TV and mindless college and pro ball games. Get a life.

I can think of 9 million other things to do with my time.

I think you’ll have lots of company in that regard. Me, I’m not any kind of sports fan but this was deeply offensive to Conservatives, and if I take a (conservative!) WAG that 1/5th the revenue-yielding audience for the NFL is Conservative and half that group won’t be spending another dime on the NFL..and I am deliberately understating my WAG..then every NFL team just lost 10% of its value. That’s hope and change!

Now you are treading on grounds that many of us NFL fanatics will have to consider after the season is over, so to speak.

Honest to God I thought this article was going to say these guys might be sued for repeating lies and using them as a reason to prompt the dropping of Rush from the buyers group. Instead it is just another idiot writer claiming Rush is a racist.

I’m disgusted by the NFL’s behavior. I am HUGE football fan, but I’ll never purchase another NFL item for a long, long time! It’s all college ball for my money from now on.

That’s right!

Don’t watch. Unplug your connection so husbands can’t watch. Tell them cable/satellite is out.!

If they don’t want lightskinned owners as they brag about the teams are 2/3’s black....they don’t need lightskinned viewers or their money! Let Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow and Rick Sanchaz and the leftist bloggers keep them afloat!

We are as mad as h*ll and we aren’t going to take it anymore!

CAN YOU HEAR US NOW?

I’ve read some of the comments at nfl.com. The vast majority should make them worry about their ticket and merchandise sales. After all, there are always college and high school games where the players don’t make more than the budgets of cities and even some counties.

The NFL was my default channel of choice but will not be any longer. NBC was already jettisoned because of that berk Olberdork.

Seems to me that most football fans are conservative.

Seems to me conservatives should forever boycott the NFL.

It would be idiotic not to (then again, I think it’s idiotic to be a spectator sport fan, so it would not surprise me if football fans do not do sensible things, like boycott the NFL).

They run off the big money, the players end up playing for peanuts. It’s a bad economy, maybe they can get George Soros to buy them, and then he can tell them who wins each week and who loses.

I will say one thing it sure brought out into the light the “politics” of the NFL. It sure is not a pretty picture and has soured me on them.
