Hit 'em in the wallet first. If you have tickets--don't use them, don't sell them, don't give them away. Empty seats hurt their image and concession sales. If you have an NFL cable package--cancel it. Ignore the games on TV. Don't buy fan merchandise.

It'll be easy for me. The Redskins are still suffering under the rein of Dan Snyder.

I am not going to support the NFL at all, no watching any games.

I raise you a Redskin and BUMP you a Lion. Long-suffering here in Michigan, kristinn...although I quit watching them 15-20 years ago. My Sundays have been fantastic for 15-20 years.

I can live without professional sports. First was baseball, then the nba and now nfl. I’ll go outdoors and create my own sport.

College ball just looks better and better.

Go Bucks!

I have been say the same thing all afternoon. I wish conservatives would ban together just this one time into a group and STOP anything to do with the NFL. DO NOT BUY A PRODUCT FROM A SINGLE ADVERTISER! DO NOT WATCH A GAME!

After this, opposition to Mr. Limbaugh emerged from Baltimore Colts owner Robert Irsay

Baltimore Colts? What rabid football fans they must be at the WSJ!

NFL 1-212-450-2000 or (212) 581-4742

Congratulate the new NFL on their new Commissioner, Al Sharpton.

And then UNLEASH HELL!

Now that the Dolphins are going to have a skank for a co-owner (apparently Steve Ross has a “celebrity” fetish) I won’t be going to their games ever again.

Looks like Goodell will be a really soft target for the NFLPA in the next contract negotiations. What a pu$$y.

I REALLY want to quit watching, but I did that when the Colts left Baltimore.

Would it help if I signed up, and then quit?

Here in Green Bay, it'll be hard. The Packers are part of our community here, more popular than Sunday church services.

The real losers of this though, is going to be the Rams football team, their fans, and the city of St. Louis. Checketts group was a way to keep the franchise in St. Louis and maybe renovate the Edward Jones Dome. I don't know if the Soros rumors are true or not, but without Rush's money it'll be hard to find a partner with a hundred million dollars burning a hole in their pocket. I think the team is going to move and all those workers and fans will be left in the dark, while the leftist vultures who took down the bid will move on to another carcass.

Done and done, I’d stopped supporting the NFL sham a few years ago. I’m not giving a thin dime to these hoodlums.

College football yes. NFL, NO! What racist crybabies hope the owners have the guts to make the players goe out on strike, and stay out. Maybe the ONE can then own or bailout the NFL.

I'm a 40 year Redskins fan, and after years of being on the season ticket waiting list, I just throw out every invite I get now that there's any available. I won't buy coffee if there's a Redskins helmet on the cup. To hell with Dan Snyder and his lapdog Vinny.

We haven't heard anyone on the right say Mr. Olbermann's nightly ad-hominem rants should disqualify him from hanging around the NFL.

Well, to be honest, I say that all the time and I'm not alone in doing so.
