Anyone else fed up with the NFL?

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.

I think a lot of it has to do with the personalities of the league and the various decisions being made at the top level. Roger Goodell is a tool, too many prima donnas like Cam Newton, too many off field distractions like Deflategate, etc. The NFL definitely has a problem that can only be corrected by a comish change.

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.

Ah, but I don't watch movies with Alec Baldwin, Leo diCaprio, etc. I've even stopped watching Tom Hanks. I don't listen to the Dixie Chicks (does anyone anymore?) or Beyonce (well, okay, I never listened to her). They have the freedom to spout whatever nonsense they want, I have the freedom to not listen and not put any money in their pocket. Freedom of speech doesn't mean we have to subsidize or pay attention to said speech (except in totalitarian leftist minds).

Remember Free Speech isn't about defending those you agree with. YMMV

Consistency is everything. *Whoosh*

The other day my wife and I were driving home and she randomly goes, "I'm so glad you don't watch football." Why would I? I hate it. I never got to choose what was on at grandma's house cus my uncle and grandfather were glued to the screen while a bunch of nearly retarded man-children hit each other in full pads. As one of our visiting fellow Boy Scouts from the Isle of Man said when he saw American football for the first time, "Pads? what a bunch of girls!"

*ahem* Speaking of the Isle of Man... [this is my kind of sport]

Better reevaluate the clothes you wear, where you buy them as well as food one eats. The leftist mindset infected everything. It's literally a plague.

I'm a Redskins fan so I don't get to watch my team that much.

My wife is a Browns fan and she got our old QB.


Heck the dog is the only Colorado native.

I wouldn't be surprised if this thread turned into a PGA/NHL thread. Buncha cynical fogies in their 30's+ here.
