And pro/NFL games are a virtue signalling woke circus - so that's a big F no for me.
It is for sure for the NBA, their ratings are down 45%, but the NFL has generally resisted the urge to virtue signal. John Mara of the Giants read letters that season ticket holders would cancel their accounts if players were allowed to continue disrespecting the anthem
Now, the NFL has taken a dark nasty turn with the "Black National Anthem" before the game and social justice messages on the field. We'll see how fans react, I don't think it's going to be good.
Just look at how they killed Drew Brees, has there ever been such an evil pathetic public lynching of a genuinely good and charitable man? And all the NFL players coming out against jews and having no consequence?
The last straw for me was when Drew Brees and the Saints wore Jacob Blake's name on their helmets. What a slap in the face to women. The police were called on Blake that day because he was violating a restraining order that had been taken out against him due to domestic violence and rape charges. So, Drew Brees, the Saints, and the NFL want to glorify and commemorate a woman abuser and rapist? No. No. Nope. I'm done. And so are a lot of other women I know. We're disgusted. Damn you all to hell, misogynist NFL.

This is herd mentality what is happening to the nation and the NFL. And, its dangerous as hot acid.
Random strange thought: If everyone hating on the NFL skipped watching the games went to a local hiking or rail trail this weekend, a couple million pounds would be lost.
All the above safety factor due to CTE. In general today's athletes due to more intensive workout regiments are bigger, stronger and faster then ever before. Athletes have also become more skilled from the advanced coaching/instruction they get in their youth years through sports camps etc.
And, yet, due to all the rule changes, analytics, focus on offense and injury concerns, the games aren't as good as they used to be.
IMO it is pretty pathetic to stop watching a sport just because the franchises/players are making the effort to spread awareness about social justice.
And yet some folks say that conservatives don't engage in cancel culture.
Good one lol.
For the one millionth time, BLM is not about “social justice”.
BLM is a Marxist organization whose stated goals include destruction of the nuclear family and the over throw of the United States government. One prominent BLM leader has said that white people are “genetic defects.”
All of this information is readily available. Please educate yourself.

How stupid. Do you watch the games for entertainment or for what they wear. If you are a fan then you wouldn't care.

Perhaps, but even with rule changes, we see QB's going down more then ever. Today's players as big and fast as they are, playing under rules from the old days would damn near kill someone.

Still running with this drivel.....
Thinking people care because they are a consumer; a customer of the NFL. Their viewing contributes financially.
Would you still shop at a store if their staff wore racists slogans for example? Why not? You go to the store for the good or service you are purchasing, not what the staff wear.
