Hmmm. NFL. Where have I heard those letters before? Oh, yeah! The ThugSport league whose Democrat friends turned on them and aren’t going to let them play this Fall. Do you think anyone will still remember they exist by August, 2021? :)

I think that to show leadership in this matter the NFL should voluntarily shutdown for this coming season. That would be heart felt and I’m sure the rioters would reapect that.

I watched the first Super Bowl. It was not even a sell out.

Green Bay was awesome. Bart Starr was MVP. What a name for a star QB.

No, you’re NOT the only Freeper who didn’t watch the Superbowl. I haven’t watched it since the 90s.

As current events dramatically underscore, there remains much more to do as a country and as a league. These tragedies inform the NFL's commitment and our ongoing efforts. There remains an urgent need for action. We recognize the power of our platform in communities and as part of the fabric of American society. We embrace that responsibility and are committed to continuing the important work to address these systemic issues together with our players, clubs and partners.

If you re-read that, not that you'd want to ... it says ... quite literally ... nothing. It says 'We are extremely virtuous! And we are not going to do anything, but we are committed to our embrace of our shared responsibility! Family and virtue and we are good people! Systemic Issues! And brave and committed and virtuous and responsible together!!!! And family! We are the NFL! Brave, Committed, Responsible, Virtuous!

I have to be sympathetic and respectful to FReepers who can’t help it because they love football so they went back to caring about the NFL. Even talk radio hosts like Bill Cunningham.

Not me. Still boycotting.

I will not dignify them after their taking a knee and not kicking out Colin K. And their wimpy virtue signaling in the past. America is a great country and gives opportunity to NFL athletes to make many millions. Don’t tread on us for that. Honor our flag.

As for me, for some reason I quit caring about all sports back then.

I can’t start my boycott of the NFL, since I have already been boycotting them since the Kapernick disaster.

Goodell is a useless &^%$*&^%.....

They are hurting. They just canned almost 70 percent of NFL films and network.

Remember NFL, if your white fans desert you, you have nothing. No stadiums, no ticket sales, no TV viewership, no league, nothing.

You’re just a damn game, and if you want to continue making money to pay yourselves and the players then you might want to ponder that, before you get all political.
