    Their pay doesn't bother me either. Shit, I wish was capable of playing a game and be in the top 1% of wage earners. And we're all paid on what we are worth to our employer. My performance at work doesn't bring in millions of eyeballs looking at advertisements, so I don't get paid for that.

    BINGO.

    I don't watch football,unless it's super cold and or lots of snow on the ground. Then it's probably a Lets see what the score is moment.

    If one is going to boycott any sport because of a sports figure political stance. Then one must also boycott movies, tv & music. Due to the left of centers influence.
    Just like these politically naive fools.

    For years Bono lectured (still does) his U.S crowds about the racism & violence we have. Yet continually ignored the terrorist & violence in his homeland.

    One concert @ mile high he started yammering on how the gun violence here needed to stop.
    Sitting in row 32 i yelled out (like he really heard me) Until Ireland is violence free. SHUT THE FUCK UP AND SING.


    Bottom line. Either boycott everyone, or none of them.

    Wouldn't happen in NASCAR. Those guys are all rednecks. Rednecks are universally patriotic.

And honestly, I really don't miss it. A bunch of overpaid Neanderthals who probably wouldn't have graduated college (save a few) if they weren't so damn good at their game. They think they're relevant, they get paid MILLIONS to play a damn game.
    Hit it out of the park. NFL was time to forget about the nonsense, come together and enjoy the competition. A bastion of manhood. Beer and meat consumption.

    I enjoy going to games. Will watch or listen to the Broncos. Don't waste time with any other NFL games.

    please. NASCAR itself is full of PC pussies. Recall they've distanced themselves from the flag (what you might call the battle flag if you're not from the south) and moved an event from a Trump hotel last year because of his comments about the brown stain coming over the border.

    Well, maybe the organization is that way but the drivers are still a bunch of rednecks so I can't picture them kneeling.

    NASCAR won't be around much longer unless they do something to stop hemorrhaging fans. I can't think of another league in as much trouble as they are currently.

    I heard on the radio today that through the first 4 weeks of the season that overall viewership is down 11% this year. I bet the protests have something to do with that number, not the entire number but I bet it's definitely a factor.
