They've done things like this in international soccer for years. It's not that big a deal.

What a bunch of RW virtue signalling. The pregame show goes to the top of the hour. Commercial. Then about 60 seconds of the announcers previewing the game. Kickoff. No commentary during the game. Game over. TV off.
Sensibilities remain violation free.

Are they going to get rid of the scantly clad cheerleaders, too?

Ordering the fans to do the wave while only raising one fist.

Speaking for myself, I never watched it to get a political lecture. I tolerated the off field indiscretions. I approved of the NFL holding players accountable for spousal abuse.

Sometimes you need to look in the mirror and say being a fan isn't worth selling out your own principles. It damned sure isn't worth supporting an org that disregards so many of their "fans."

While I support an individual's right to protest, I don't have to agree with their method, their topics or those who support said cause. I also support an individual's right to counter protest by not supporting the NFL.

There is always college ball or better still Australian rules football. A game most of our NFL stars wouldn't last until halftime. No room for fat boys on that field.

39% of sports fans say they are watching fewer NBA games.

TV ratings are down.

Of the 39% of fans that say they are watching fewer games 38% said it is because the NBA is too political and 19% said it is because the NBA bowed to China.

I won’t watch even one NFL game. Not one. Not even if the Titans go to the Super Bowl. They’ve gone woke so let’s make em go broke. Tune out America!
