It gets better after the kickoff. You left the party early.

Well. That is what they advertised. I don’t tune in until the game starts.

I went to all college ball. The NFL has become a waste of time. Never looked back. I try to zero in on the best games, 2 or 3. Then enjoy! Don’t even get caught up in team affiliation, just want to watch good football!

2017 Pro Bowl in Orlando - Kiss Cam - “Love Has No Labels”

It should be called “Celebrate Perversity”.

Then you missed the piece of shit #22 (Peters) that sat on his low life ass for the National Anthem.

I do enjoy pro football and it pains me to see these ignorant dumb asses do the stupid stuff they do, but I'm fed up with it...and as soon as I saw the camera pan to his filthy self sitting on his dead ass, I turned it off.

I think I'm pretty much done with it.

Why not turn off the NFL permanently?

That's what we did at our house. Yes, there was some withdrawal but that quickly passed.

We were sick and tired of watching spoiled, overpaid athletes and their anti-American antics. (not all of them, of course).

Agreed. It's sad because I'm such a Patriots fan. But I don't have the game on either. Though I confess I'm keeping track of the score in a separate window in my browser (Pats are up 17-7).

Watching FoxNews. Would actually watch the awful "The Five" over an NFL game in which even one player is allowed to disrespect the country that has given him so much.

The NFL brass better get this crap under control and fast.

I stopped watching the NFL after 50 years last season when the league decided they did not want to be the football league of this nation.

No thanks. My allotted football watching time for this week is reserved for Ohio State/Oklahoma.

I gave up the NFL last year when Craponadik started this hateful nonsense. But for years the NFL has been in decline.
The talent level is not what it used to be. Highly skilled players are fewer and fewer. Sure, the players are bigger, maybe faster, but they are out of shape and lazy. Many of the defensive players only play 30 or so plays a game and they can barely take that much activity without cramping up or grabbing the oxygen mask. The fundamentals of blocking and tackling don’t appear to be taught anymore, and the technique of playing the game is lost.
The NFL has further spoiled the game by creating more and more rules that take away from finesse of the game.
Basically the teams stink, the offenses are all similar and predictable, the coaches are weak in handling players, and the product on the field sucks.
Furthermore, the thug and hoodlum culture that has taken over is something I don’t like and I don’t care to support. Essentially, for all I care the NFL can go to hell.

Instead of tuning into the circus, I was with my 94 year old WWII vet father listening to Sinatra. My dad won’t be watching these dirt balls and their pathetic antics. It was a far more enjoyable evening.

Question (don’t watch pro sports. No interest in seeing multi-millionaire guys running around): what about pro baseball and basketball? Are any of those players refusing to stand in respect for our country?
