Excellent.

Remove any tax-exempt status from the SJW Felon League.

Die, NFL. Die.

top executives and television partners scrambling to figure out what went wrong

If they are scrambling to figure out what went wrong they deserve to lose that money.

Living in the greater Lost Angeles Metro, I have done without football for a long, long time.

The Rams sucked most years. The Raiders bounced back and forth one time too many.

So the No Football in LA years grew to be okay.

It was just a small step to get to altogether, No Football Period.

And for me, before the kneeling, I was fed up with the thuggery aspect, e.g. 70% blacks, etc.

So kneeling, became the final straw.

You can’t fix stupid—but let’s be patient.

Boycott them for five years and see if they can figure it out by then!

[You just can’t make this up. It seems to me that everyone is ‘stuck on stupid.’ And, they just can’t see or refuse to see the truth.]

Yep, had personal experience with that myself a few years back. Astounding. Factory gets devastating and destructive computer virus. Attacks me who saved factory from being destroyed by computer virus. Brilliant!

Hard to imagine why they’ve paid at around $500,000 in fines over the years. /s

Really just two things: 1) Over saturation and 2) Parity. Parity=Mediocrity and that’s what many of the games have been. Mediocre to awful.

I’m done with the NFL now and forever.

The kneeling CK SJW’s just put the icing on the cake.

While the protest has received the majority of the media attention and the league and TV partners definitely believe it’s an issue, they don’t believe the protest is the reason for the substantial drop in ratings by itself.

It is one of the reasons for declining ratings, they believe, not THE reason.

Can the league be that stupid?!!!!

Sounds like Roger Goodell has earned his $50 million contract extension.

Roger's contract demands:

* $49.5 million per year
* Lifetime use of a private jet
* Lifetime health insurance for his family
As SNL quipped, that goes to show you the state of Health Care in the United States when you can make $50 million per year and still demand health insurance for your family.

I note that many of the same people who thought Obama was intelligent, effective, hard-working and patriotic also thought the NFL could and should embrace a political agenda and that this same group of people can’t understand why Obama was such a dismal failure and why the NFL ratings slide is so precipitous.

I saw on Yahoo sports that the NFL is going to fund $100 million to SJW groups.

They don’t have a clue.

Let’s see what happens when their paychecks start shrinking.

Yeah, why believe the actual ex-fans who tell you why they are dropping out?
