NTK- A new poll from J.D. Power of NFL viewers who had started to watch less games showed that the main reason for the decreased viewership was Colin Kaepernick’s anti-national anthem protests, according to ESPN.
The survey revealed that 26 percent of those who watched fewer games had tuned out due to Kaepernick’s protests. The second-most popular reason dealt with the NFL’s handling of issues related to rules and off-field player conduct at 24 percent.
According to ESPN, the NFL suffered a viewership drop this past season: MORE
Wait until this year when the Jungle Boogie is allowed and applauded. No longer my sport. I’m probably not the Lone Ranger.
💥 I’m SICK of hearing about player’s off-field issues 💥
I really don’t think the NFL should be the 2nd level of punishment. Isn’t that what we agree the courts are for?
Is Master-Card to ban them to make a statement?
McDonald’s can refuse them service b/c of their behavior?
Chevrolet to refuse selling them cars?
AT&T to refuse them telephone service?
And on and on. Theoretically, every private business could refuse service to NFL player “X” to make a strong Social Justice Warrior statement that they will not accept business from someone who did ___________.
It’s ridiculous. Let’s all agree our courts decide punishment.
I will still watch Belechick and the Patriots, did you see the shirt Belechick was photographed in last week? My home team, the Seahawks, I hope they get their asses kicked!
All I do any more is play pools and wait for the results. The only games I watch are Army games. I’ve made money on the Super Bowl but I really don’t care who the teams are. I used to be a Jet fan, but I lost interest.
For me, the NFL died when Manning retired. And the NFL saw to it.
That fucking Kaepernick really made a balls of the game. Asshole!
bad_bred, do you mean Archie Manning? wow, you go waaaay back!
What do ya mean Manning retired, Eli is still out there.
And for the last 10 years NASCAR blows too. Fucking Jimmie Johnson is sharp as a marble but keeps winning. Only Little E is slightly dumber. I miss the old number 3. Can’t watch that shit anymore either.
Loved Archie But there’s only ONE Manning boys. And he’s out. Never been a tougher competitor.
Peyton Manning is certainly a competitor, but he is no Joe Kapp. Even though Joe Kapp is a Canuck and he would be 90 years old if he is still alive he would probably love to kick kapernicks as.
peyton. Right up there with Joe Montana
You know who could have been another Peyton and kept the NFL alive for all of us white ass crackers? Tim Tebow. But the dumb ass marketing geniuses from ESPN killed his career. Along with with the NFL and their network. I’ll watch Tebow playing AAA Ball before I watch an NFL game.
It seems like Tebow is playing well right now, don’t be surprised if the Mets call him up after Sept.1. They have nothing to lose at this point and he will sell tickets.

I use to watch a lot of baseball back when the A’s had the bash brothers. I actually miss watching those games. If Tebow gets signed to any team, I’ll be a permanent fan and glued until he leaves.
So will the wife.
Right now he is signed by the Mets and he is playing AAA. I think he is playing in BFH’s current hometown.
I love tight ends.
For a lot of Americans I think Koepernick was the last straw. Who the phuck wants to watch him play?

I like big butts and I cannot lie. LOL
nfl? that’s that football thingy right?
I’d rather watch Spongebob with the kid.
It’s too painful to watch the Browns. Haslem needs his butt booted through the goal posts.
I was already fed up with the thug attitude of the NFL. Ray Lewis should have been tried for murder. The Copperdick situation just pushed me over the edge.
And @Brad – new NASCAR sux now.

> Let’s all agree our courts decide punishment.
As long as it’s our sharia courts. They haven’t had enough time to get their corruption running full speed. Yet. (But they are catching up on professional incest. Who says tribalism can’t adapt to the modern world.)
I’m 56. I’ve never seen a football game. Or baseball. Or basketball. Haven’t missed a thing.
YEP!
I’ve never understood the idea of watching over paid, spoiled supposedly grown men playing children’s games. We need to outgrow this crap.
Just a real asshole that thinks he’s a civil rights pioneer.
They’re JUST figuring that out?
Yeah, we knew this when it first happened. Some people need time machines.
No NFL here because of him. ESPN was the reason we cut cable altogether. Thought about watching this year until 18 black players decided to jump on the bandwagon with their hate-America, black lives don’t matter horse shit. So no cable bills for awhile.
