No, not anytime.....you miss the point. This is people across the country, including literally everyone I know over the age of 30, stating that they will not watch the NFL any longer. And everyone I hear about...and everyone they know.....get it...?

Then I watch the ratings drop....Hmmmmm.....coincidence? I think not.

I got in a nice day of college football yesterday with some really good games that were "woke" free.

ESPN went woke during the Mississippi St vs Florida game, so I bailed out. But all the other games I watched were Burn Loot Murder free.

Haven't missed NFL at all this season - won't be part of the hypocrisy and woke-fest.

Honestly, we're on week 3 and if the NFL is supporting protests and BLM...I have barely seen or heard a word of it during the actual games...I might catch a commercial and the commentators may say a word of it....but it's not like the NBA at all. The NBA is completely swamped in "woke" messages, and it's even more frustrating that they actually have NBA players completely ignorant of the facts of cases as spokesmen of "change." It's extremely nauseating.

Let’s have more posts here about how we won’t watch any more NFL games in protest and then write about the results of the NFL games, or how we only watch to see wha happens

Instead of the NFL flapping their gums and posting words, what exactly are they doing to help these black communities they say they care so much about. Wouldnt deeds not words make more sense, and maybe get some fans back?

As a black man I can say none of this "wokeness" has affected me one bit.

I'm not richer, more educated, more prosperous, or treated special just because rich blacks want to kneel between trips to the Gucci store and strip club.

Don't believe for one second that any of these empty gestures are doing anything to benefit normal black people.

Weren't some college teams kneeling on sidelines?


Freaking sickening.


It's not so much about disrespect of the flag/anthem for me, as it is their ignorant support of communist ideology, that really sticks in my craw. To hell with them and their embrace of an ideology so demonic hundreds of millions have died from it.

Facts don't matter. Emotions and being "on the right side of history" matters.

These fascists will try to ruin your life if you dare question or present facts that they have feelings against.


The left is ruining democracy. No free discussion and certain facts are outlawed.
