Can we just have a vote now as to whether or not they should play? I would vote “no”.

Good. Except in the minor leagues they are mostly overpaid for just having fun doing a game they all enjoy. Most people have to give up their games to support themselves and their families.

I suspect this guy was talking to an NBA official. But that league just tanked its popularity. Fine with me if they just shut down.
But, the author is at least smart enough to understand a boycott wouldn't work without NFL support. Football is the most popular sport in America. But the average career is around 3 years and most players have spent all their money within three years of retirement. Also, there's no guaranteed money in the NFL. No play, no pay. It's one thing for LeBron, who has enough money for several lifetimes, to mouth off about boycotts, but a guy living paycheck to paycheck just ain't gonna do it. Besides, they know the teams can go to the guys who competed for those positions but got cut who would gladly put on the helmet.

Fine with me.

It used to be you could go out for a nice quiet dinner by candlelight.
