Well, it's their choice on what ads to accept. Pretty durn sad though if you ask me. What's next? Any nfl player found in possession of a firearm will be fined by the nfl? Hmmmm. Did bobby costas have any input on this issue? Asshats. But, you can bet they won't have any issue running beer ads or obiecare ads.

A league w declining attendance cannot afford to be Gun Control Fascist without losing more of its fan base

I haven’t watched an NFL game since they reinstated Michael (PissBeUponHim) Vick.

I would boycott them for this too, but I can;t reduce my watching below zero.

I just don’t like my tax dollars paying for something I am firmly against...Obamacare ads at the NFL?

The see-through bag rule was the final straw. I will not attend an NFL game again ever.

The NFL began to bore the bejeebers out of me over a decade ago. I don't think I have watched even a Super Bowl since then.

This anti-gun fetish just adds a new layer of boredom.

I have convinced a handful of others to try an experiment. Take a month in the fall and don't watch or listen to a single NFL game. It's amazing how much time that frees to do less boring stuff. That handful I convinced to try it for a month never went back. I doubt anyone else ever would.

What would the NFL do to a current player who actively supports the 2nd Amendment?
It's incredible that a sport would be fighting the Constitution that allows them to exist.

I lost interest in all “pro-sports” decades ago, and won’t ever go back to it.

One’s opinion is that the best place to watch a NFL game is in the comfort of your warm living room with a big screen TV. Who needs the outrageous prices, the drunks, the traffic jams and 6-7 bucks to buy a beer?

I have not watched football, NFL or college in 7 or 8 years. I have not watched the NBA or college b-ball in 20 or so years. All I watch now is NHL or college hockey. They are not quite so PC. And as an avid tennis player I watch tennis which for some reason has not gone over the edge even though the USTA is as PC as you can get.

For one, we are bread and circus with this fixation on these sports, it makes me want to hurl at times. But Rush was right, they behave like the Crips and Bloods and now the League is trying to be PC to make Lear Deader happy. What once was a great institution and something all American is destroying itself. In someways I hate to see it, but frankly in maybe they deserve it, they are doing it to themselves. I’d say turn off your TV, but most FR-er’s have already. Their are 2 sports I seek out that have none of this insanity and I will keep them on the down-low as they are not polluted with this insanity....

Going to a Atlanta football game is just to dangerous. Baseball in Denver is a good place to get robed or killed. Seattle football is just plan crazy with pan handlers, gangs, muggers and dangerous people on the streets. All these places you can not carry. Any way I can get a 6-pak the best beer made for the same price one cheap suds at a game. Please before you all go crazy on me I have had a season ticket at all these places and know the drill.

I haven’t watched Professional Sports of ANY KIND nor watched a TV show or been to a Movie in 25 years, precisely because of MORALLY BANKRUPT actions and policies like this.

Our liberal society is turning the NFL into a bunch of Kitties. This helmet contact thingy is bull crap.

I haven’t been to an nfl game in years. Drunk obnoxious fans being truly poor sports, high prices, no thanks. If the nfl continues down this anti 2nd path I’ll give them up completely. It is already the only sport I watch on tv, probably wouldn’t miss it.

I watched the Raiders/Cowflies game yesterday.

The halftime show was atrocious.

The Salvation Army was featured which is fine, but they had a bunch of slutty looking dancers along with a slutty looking Selena Gomez on a stage which had a giant SA logo on it.

That bothered me.

I went to one Seahawks game. The crowd was totally obnoxious and while I love football I won’t be returning any time soon to see a game live. I was in the Hawk’s Nest part of the stadium, which I guess is known for rowdy fans. But it was way over the top with one fellow wanting to start a fight with the Green Bay fan a row behind me and another using utterly fowl language at the top of his lungs on every play, despite the presence of a 10 year old girl a row away.

It was not fun, and I won’t be shelling out my hard earned money to attend again. OTOH: I do enjoy the game on television.

Every year this time, there is a slew of ads “rejected by the NFL for the Superbowl”. The gimmick is getting tired. The truth is that most of those ads were never intended to be aired, but just to be either rejected or not even offered.

“So go to our website to see our *banned* Superbowl ad!”
