Liberals hate pro sports and a grwoing number of conservatives aren’t watching.

Where’s the win for the NFL?

They don't want you to watch; you're an old racist dinosaur. They're courting a younger, woke demographic.

[[but those who refrain from kneeling are?]]

Correct- they who won’t kneel are hate filled racists /s

So then why are you on this thread? Life is so boring that you’re going to threads that you don’t care about? I’m getting there :-)

Somehow I don’t think this guy is going to get bullied.

While I am proud of him, the NFL is still DEAD to me. For this lifelong Viking fan, it’s over.

Over 50 years of loyalty, and a 25 year subscriber to the NFL ticket, It’s over.

Oh, and by the way, good for Mr. Tuitt. I like a man who’s patriotic.

It will be interesting to see how the Rooney Family, who is totally, 110% in the tank for Democrats, responds to this. When Alejandro Villanueva refused to kneel they forced him to apologize. Do they only intimidate their Hispanic employees and not their Black ones? Guess we're about to find out.

Isn’t the NFL in violation of their antitrust status by engaging in politics? GOP can make hay of this ...... if they only had a brain, a heart, the nerve.

For what it is worth, the hockey exhibition game between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh being played now in Toronto didn’t have anyone kneeling during the anthems, at least that I saw.

For those that like sports stars, my apologies, but I can’t stand these over paid over worshiped loud mouths.

Maybe he can show Drew Brees where to find his testicles.

Man, it's too bad I'm not on FaceBook/Twitter. I'd love to make a status with this, tagging them both in it!

More like if they weren’t the ideological twins of the Dems. Imagine how Trump’s first two years would have gone if they weren’t?

NFL Films laid off about 65% of their staff a few months ago. NFL Network had similar numbers laid off.

“I’m not watching they any more, so I don’t care.”

Exactly what I think. Taxpayers were suckered into making the crooked celebrity class (Pro sports and Hollywood) much richer on our dime than they ever deserve. Anything I can do to screw them out of robbing more of our money, I will work to make it happen.

Screw the NFL. Unamerican bastards all, and anyone who still supports them needs his head examined.

Defunding MLB works for me as well. And any/all of these take-a-knee SOBs.
