Done with the NFL. The anthem issue was the start and they’ve owned I’ll will at every step since.

Boycotting?

No, just not watching. Ever.

Yep, just can’t wait to spend my time and money watching a bunch of thugs, felons, wife beaters, that see everything in the world through the prism of racism and exhibit their true hatred for America and Americans in general on a daily basis. I guess it was to be expected since the Blacks surrendered to and then joined the KKK/Democrat party after MLK was killed.

pretty tough decision.??

The way the kneeling is coming across is the players are giving the finger to white Americans. It doesn’t matter if that wasn’t the intent, that’s the way it’s being received, and the players should have figured it out by now.

White Americans are responding on that basis.

I watched the Eagles in the Super Bowl because I have been an Eagles fan all my adult life,and that’s something I’ll probably never see again. I have no regrets. It was no worse than a Rabbi eating a bacon sandwich.

No agony about it. The NFL is dead to me. Time to watch college ball if I need a football fix.

I enjoy the game...the vast majority of the players are not anti American ass clowns...

Watching the NFL is one of the few remaining things I enjoy...

Having played for 8 years on various levels, I'm not given up what I enjoy to virtual signal

I’m not boycotting anymore, I’ve simply moved on and I won’t be back. It was fun while it lasted but it turned out not to be fun anymore. Please, spare us the drama of the Death Of A Great American Institution or the loss of history. The players peed in their lemonade and now it’s not so easy to sell it. Best of luck to them and to the folks who want to continue to buy it.

Stopped watching the NFL about 10 years ago when they put that stupid arrow on the field with the down count.

Once you stop watching and do other things you have no desire to watch anymore. That’s the big danger to the NFL. Once people stop watching they will lose audience forever.

American football is a lousy game.

I prefer not to give my money to people that hate me.

But that is just me. Watching a bunch of overweight pansies prance around in tight pants is not my thing anyway.

When the Denver Donkey players took a knee, I changed the channel and have not watched since.

This is an interesting take on the NFL tradition. In my home growing up and, later, among my friends, there were a bazillion hours of raucous fun watching NFL games on TV. Also, my Dad bought four season tickets starting the year the Vikings first appeared.

I stopped watching in the extreme late 1990's. At that point the issue was the Vikings and many (possibly all) other teams started filling their rosters with parolees or just some that should be considered parolees. If the NFL was always like that, the league did a better job keeping it out of the press.

It was hard to feel loyalty to a team that always seemed to have a handful of thugs making the news. Nevertheless, I went through a period of withdrawal that lasted 3 or 4 weeks. By then a whole new world opened up of finding lots to do on Sunday afternoons. There still is lots to do.

I haven't watched an NFL game this century, don't miss it and can't imagine ever going back. These moronic protests are just the latest manifestation that, if the NFL disappeared from the face of the earth today, by next week, no one would remember it was ever here.

Agony? What agony?

It’s been a bore ass sports for years

And has priced the common man out with ridiculous salaries, prices, and tax subsidies

It’s been a complete garbage product for years and years before this protest dog squeeze, come on. The players really just want to have some sort of swishy celebration dance/chest slapping/raging hulk pose competition.
