More now. I love how the players kneel and sit down to protest injustices in the land 2 3.39%
About the same. The players have every right to protest. Lets just get on with the football 10 16.95%
Less. The game is starting to decline anyways. Nothing to do with the political posturing. 15 25.42%
Less. I do not like the league stance on player protests, the games no longer interest me as a result 32 54.24%
Voters: 59. You may not vote on this poll

I have lived with such insults from bullies for so many years that I am pretty much immune to them now.
Several aphorism relate:
"It takes one to know one!"
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me!"
"Every time you point at me, there are three fingers pointing back at you!"
"The pot calling the kettle black!"
and many others. "Childish sayings"? Of course! There are times when only grade school things are appropos.
You sound fun.

So when it comes to football, which team do you support?
