The Left has been trying to kill the NFL for years.
The owners don’t want to be called “slave owners” or protested as being racists. So they are running scared.
They forget who pays the bills - average working class Trump voter folks.
When has the ‘official’ anything of the NFL, NBA, Disney World etc mattered a whit to anyone not employed by the NFL, NBA, Disney World etc?
I’ve always found the ‘official’ designation a particularly lazy means of puffing up one’s brand as it means nothing to the buying public.
AB may be a large chunk of InBev but InBev have a globalist view and many foreign executives...they may have little patience for domestic squabbles even within the lucrative US market.
Probably a trial balloon and a little posturing. We’ll see if they actually follow through.
I tried to call them this morning. All circuits were busy...
I called them as well.
Glad to hear such a powerful brand is questioning their continued advertisement with the NFL.
NFL, this is a clear shot across the bow. Choose one of the two: America or the Black Lives Matter anarchist sympathizers.
The public approval rating for the NFL was cut in half just a couple weeks into this season. Sure it’s even lower now.
The Cam Newton communist black supremacy salute today won’t help matters.
I called them this morning, and left a comment.
Exactly.
The LEFT hates the NFL and so I cannot help but think they are now pretty happy this is all happening.
I called them, they pull out the nonsense ends - I have a theory, teams that have a player protest then lose the game. Oakland, Baltimore, Miami, Cleveland are an examp,e

As an employer in a highly politicized environment (political polling), I was also a supporter of free speech. If anyone working for me had introduced politics (other than our analysis) into the work environment, I would have fired them. Then they would have been free to speak out 24 hours a day.
That’s why they’ve been encouraging it - handing out awards to Kaepernick, etc.
They want the NFL to cover itself with gasoline and suicide over this.
That’s why it is getting constant attention. That and the fact MSM has to run so many ‘black stories’ each day and this is an easy one.
Keep hammering Budweiser.
Make it so!
Non-AB beerwater’s as good as AB’s. Switch brew companies. Now.
I see what you did there.
Same is extra true for Adrian Peterson, who has sat on his butt for the anthem and who is also a child beating MF. I don't care where he played his college ball.
The NFL showed their true colors years ago when they refused to let Rush Limbaugh buy a piece of the St. Louis Rams.
I think that was back around 2010.
Bullshit headline. Anheuser-Busch has made no statement indicating it is thinking about dropping the NFL.
One thing I’m curious to see is if now more people are going to sell their tickets cheap on StubHub, and as a result we’re going to start seeing more fans of a certain element start to show up at games.
That’s when the fun is really going to start.
Don’t consume either AB-InBev or NFL.
