Anyone here boycotting the NFL? Ratings seem to keep going down. (Beckham, game)

At least the time that they are on their knees during the National Anthem is time that they are not beating their girlfriends and wives ...

The good part is that the only time that you will see most of the players in five years is on the steps of US Bankruptcy court.

AT&T bought them about 2 years ago. Looking at their most recent quarterly report, they show 21+ million satellite and over-the-top subscribers. I imagine most of those are the DirecTV brand.


Domestic satellite and over-the-top video subscribers
21,347


AT&T U-verse® (U-verse) video subscribers
3,853

I couldn't boycott them much more than I always have . I don't go to the games , don't buy the merchandise and only watched the games on regular cable .

I'd tend to agree, standing for social justice will fade when you just wanna watch your team play

No you could, you could stop watching using the product at all hence a boycott. A boycott of McDonald's isn't reducing your consumption to a 6 pack of nuggets

I've boycotted the NFL for more than half a century. Hasn't done a bit of good.

NFL & NASCAR. Over-paid entertainers who have an over-inflated sense of their importance.
