Has anyone compiled a list of the companies? I've seen the list of the companies that signed a petition but not the anti-Trump ads.
I didn’t know that. I’ll have to take a look.
I wouldn’t watch the Satan worshipping Lady Gag Gag if you paid me. I’m not crazy about Belicheat either, but I hate the commie NFL even more. That they could even imagine giving a national stage to an avowed follower of Satan was enough for me to recognize the hand writing on the wall. They have been weighted and found wanting — love of gays, satanic performers, and all things lib is more than enough for me.
The best thing I’ve heard out of Super Bowl LI is Roger Goodell getting booed.

I noticed a radical change in strategy by the Falcons at the beginning f the second half. I told my husband (who didn’t grow up with American football) ‘they are protecting their lead. This usually doesn’t end well. They are running more and not taking as many chances’. I was glad the Pats won, but I won’t be watching next year if the league decides that the protests are more important than the love of our country.
Super Bowl Draws Smallest Audience in Nine Years
...the worst since 2009 when the Pittsburgh Steelers-Arizona Cardinals matchup brought in "only" 98.7 million viewers.

Death..................
.............. to the nfl!
Yes, I know....now!!
I was searching to see if anyone had put up this year’s Super Bowl viewership info - and only saw “Feb. 6th” (which was yesterday) - went back after I’d written that comment and noticed it was 2017, not 2018.
LOL.
