Today is the last day to cancel DirecTV NFL TICKET

[68Charger]

I missed the memo on why Libs win if NFL goes away... obviously some of the teams are run by them (owners supporting the players sitting out)

I would think all that disposable income currently spent on Tickets, PPV, cable/Satellite plans would get spent on another sport.

I'm in the "my life wouldn't change in the slightest if the NFL ceased to exist" category.

Here is a list of sponsors from today's Broncos game. While virtually impossible to boycott them all, you can write them on social media with something along these lines:
This American is boycotting your products as long as you support the NFL that allows employees to disrespect the national anthem.

Southwest
Geico
Verizon
Taco bell
Buffalo wild wings
Energizer
Pizzahut
Car gurus
Apple
Hyundai
Progressive
Sonic
Home depot
Pepsi
Priceline
Mercedes
Modelo
Chantix
Snickers
Dickies
Corona
Dominoes
Lowes
Jaguar
AARP
Cricket
Quicken loans
Bud light
Smashburger
Autonation
Old spice
Sony
FedEx
Toyota
Lincoln

That's a helpful list.

Most of those companies will never see a dime of my money. GEICO, Verizon and Home Depot see a fair share. I'll drop them a note.

ETA: BTW...I don't do social media, either. FB, Twitter and all that ranks right up there with the NFL to me. This site is as close as I come to social media.

Outside of driving a yota and having verizon for a phone, we don't use any of the above companies products. We don't watch American football, or any other sport

I bet if I went to work and spoke my mind, they wouldn't be able to hold that against me, right? Maybe I'll just take a knee on the front row when the CEO starts talking at an all employee mtg. I can do that with no fear of losing my job, because it's my right.

The CEO of the company I work for thought he saw somebody wearing company garb at Charlottesville, apparently on the "wrong side" (when there were bad actors on both sides)... it launched an internal investigation- trying to match photos to employees, so he could "take disciplinary action"

Yeah, I work for a liberal shit storm... I didn't choose this company, they bought out the company that nearly destroyed the company I chose. (I've been working here way too long)

They are trying to push soccer to replace American football.

The actual list of nfl sponsors is much longer. This is just the ads i saw during one half of a game. If you use a phone or computer, that is on the list too.

I can respect that, to each his own...

Speaking of the entire team coming out, it was not the entire team actually. One guy a former Army Ranger came out on his own:

Hat is off to Alejandro Villanueva!

... and now the head coach is frothing at the mouth because one team member felt it was more important to honor the flag and the country he risked his life for than to support politically correct but ignorant ideology instead of wondering why his team got beat handily.

That Packers game was pretty good....

I wish all companies would stop all sponsorship of pro sports.

These grown adults gets paid more in one year them what most make in a lifetime. Yet they contribute nothing to society. They play children's games. In reality, they should be paid minimum wage since their contribution is far less than any fast food worker.

They don't feed us, they don't build anything, they don't make anything, all they do is provide a few hours of entertainment.

That's right. It has become anti American bread and circus bullshit.

Ours was free this year as part of a new service package, but cancelled it anyway.
