NFL ratings are down 14%, and this season's opener was the lowest ratings not seen in years.
It's a stunning drop.
What is the end game here? Are you hoping for the end of proffesional football? Are you trying to force the NFL to do what you think is appropriate? Are you trying to throttle peaceful protests?
I mean, really ... what is your goal?
I stopped watching pro sports because of all the military worship. Maybe Nike can come up with a branded pacifier that says "just suck it" for those so offended.
They are feeling it now. TV ratings are way way down, and they are playing to 1/2 empty or more stadiums across the USA. It's fascinating to watch the NFL destroy it's brand.
Obviously, you haven't been paying attention to that last bastion of rightie goodness, NASCAR. The stands are empty and the ratings are in the toilet. But feel free to continue on with your delusions.

It's actually a double whammy for NASCAR. Not only are their audiences off 30 to 40 percent, viewers 18-49 (the most valuable segment to advertisers) make up only about a quarter of NASCAR viewers. NASCAR viewers are old.
I guess they are removing seats at the tracks so it's not as noticable on tv.
There is no way of knowing if people really aren’t watching.
I know people who are boycotting because Kaep isn’t on a team...
But they still post and talk about football and always find a way to see highlights.
I don’t care if you don’t watch but why do you need to keep telling people?
Because they think if a tree falls in the forest nobody will hear it, and if they don't tell as many people as possible they are boycotting, it just won't matter. And it actually doesn't.

End Game? It's not Waldokitty as you seem to suggest.
It's about the NFL destroying it's brand with mainstream America. TV ratings are falling through the floor and stadiums are 1/2 empty.
It's quite stunning to watch a corporation ruin itself like this.

Delusions? That would be thinking that NASCAR has anything to do with what I said.
This is about the NFL and the fact that its destroying its brand.
