If I were the CEO of a beverage company, my companies official statement on EVERYTHING would be: “We make beer, buy it or don’t...thank you”.

The Left is too dishonest to admit it's been an anti-white protest from the word "go" and too stupid to understand this point:

If you lose a middle-aged, married white male as a fan, you are potentially losing SEVERAL fans in that household. In my house, the wife and kids are fans because Dad is and as neanderthal as it may sound, if I boycott the NFL with my pocketbook, everyone else in my home will whether they like it or not.

Life-long Redskins fan, but no more ... no NFL.
My entire family is following college ball now.
////////////////////////////

College ball we be worse. The left will jump all over the college game and get those players to do mass protests. They have democrat socialist revolutionaries on every faculty and most university presidents. They have politicized everything. this will spread quickly and all will be against Trump and American values and respect for the country. It will get worse before it gets better. There is no American institution that will be immune to this

expect beer prices to go up at your local watering hole to cover more advertising and less beer sales at games.

President Trump knows how liberal elites play word games and he plays them right back at 'em...

Good for Trump.

And a bigot is someone who thinks he’s right, and everyone else is wrong. Sounds like everyone I know, not to mention my self.

Dems will be forced to side with anti-Americanism and extreme leftists over the working class white voters.


That’s no problem. They’re already siding with North Korea.

We patriots are alive and kicking. The dark side can only destroy, but we keep on building. We fill arenas with ruckus political rallies. We come up with entertaining ways of putting down our enemies, such as “shlonged” and anti-cnn videos. Let the dark side destroy: despite them, we continue to grow and prosper.

>>Should be a national boycott of the NFL.

Certainly should be, but it’s pretty clear that a very high percentage of NFL fans are as badly addicted as heavy drug users.

USAA is an advertiser. They are technically member owned, and management is definitely catching some heat on the member forum.

A few typical posts there:

“By allowing any politics to be displayed on the field the NFL has created a situation in which supporting them is tacit approval of the politics displayed. If USAA continues to advertise w/NFL (and imply support of the politics), I will have close my accounts with USAA.”

“I completely agree. Many military and police have lost their lives defending this country and its people. It’s time for USAA to take a stand against sponsoring the NFL until they can force their players to stop this ridiculous behavior. It’s disrespectful and isn’t doing a darn thing for whatever “cause” they think they’re helping.”

“As a wounded combat veteran of the Vietnam War, I am appalled at the stance, or should I say the genuflection, of the NFL to its overpaid self-indulgent, self-laudatory and self-ratifying employees. This is not a First Amendment issue - there is no state action. They are paid entertainers, not celebrated thinkers.

The behavior of these athletes is a slap in the face to every man and woman who has ever stepped up to the plate and put on the uniform of this great Nation. The acceptance of their behavior by NFL hierarchy constitutes a betrayal of our Armed Forces.”

There is a lib on there spouting off as you’d expect, but he’s greatly outnumbered.

FR thread here:
USAA still supporting the NFL (for now)

Talk is cheap. He won’t even fire Koskinen, let alone prosecute him & Lois Lerner.

That swamp must be pretty sweet to bathe in.
