I can just see Roger Godell taking to the podium tomorrow morning in formal attire, waving his top hat in one hand and a piece of paper in the other declaring "Peace in our time."

The NFL has no idea that not only has the camel pushed its nose under the tent that it came in, ate the buffet, crapped on the floor and chased all the guests away.

Over under on the collapse of the league went from 5 to 3.

They are so done, so finished and just oh so clueless.

My veteran of WWII dad will be rolling in his grave. Football is officially gay. A dance for socialist fags in tights slapping each other on their tight butts

Further proof that Roger Goodell and the NFL owners haven’t got a clue as to “what the problem is”.

The agreement does not include language calling for players to end protests during the national anthem in exchange for funds;...

BOYCOTT THE NFL!!! FOREVER!!!

Boycott, regardless if they ever stop kneeling!

“They are so done, so finished and just oh so clueless. “

Yeah, bad precedent for sure. There will be more to come. Also, higher ticket prices will turn off more fans. Goodell and owners who support him are just plain stupid - and gutless.

Are we all missing it...

Does this thing all unravel so fast that the Municipalities and the Teams in those Stadiums take it in the shorts like we have never seen and default on the Muni-Bonds? You have some cities that might not be financially healthy to begin with, can they really afford this, No.

What do they do with the Stadiums afterwards? Giant White Elephants they will be.

Perhaps this is good, Culture of Savages Borders, Language, and Culture is possibly being changed back. The Bread and Circus aspect to Football and what today is called Music is driving people away from both of them, maybe we are getting off the "Dole" rather than the crowds screaming to increase it, and they did it to themselves, we are just responding to save ourselves from their madness, as we walk away.

Jeez... what a way to double-down on stupid! Do they really think their fans give a rodent’s rectum about those issues?

A victory for BLM and other SJW groups with hands outstretched.Unless of course people turn off the damn channel and not buy the tickets and utterly reject what has turned into a vehicle for left-wing politics.

A drop in the bucket compared to the tens of trillions of dollars spent since Lyndon Johnson declared war on poverty 50 years ago. WHICH DID NOTHING to quench the thirst of the dindu nuffin crowd. So, good luck, NFL. Fools.

Burn them to the ground. They will have a hard time paying $100 million in blood money if they are bankrupt.

That should bring back the fans!

Not. Amazingly, they don't understand their fan base.

This is small change for the NFL, anyway. It's a little more than $14 million per year. The NFL probably spends a lot more than that every year striping the parking lots. Derek Carr makes $25 million per year.

And they think that just because they're going to donate money to so-called "social justice" causes that that'll justify what the players have been doing or placate the fans?

If anything, it'll make the fan base even more irate! The NFL caved, and people will know it!

Good. That will make the league bankrupt even faster.

And the stupid white male with NFL sponsored beer in hand and NFL jersey on, will be helping to support it.

If you’re stuck on stupid then I guess it seems right to spread it around.
