There's going to be SO MUCH material on this board today: how many players kneel, coach/player interviews, EthanL snowflake melts, ESPN not showing sports, Iran, NK, and hopefully Trump tweets!

Prepare for a show, ladies and gentlemen. NFL ratings are officially about to crash to prehistoric levels! Prepare for athlete lectures, owner lectures, and Goodell making more bs excuses!

We have it all! Looking forward to watching Kaepernick play today...oh, wait.

Should be an entertaining day!

The athlete and owner lectures already started. ESPN proudly posting them.

I remain done with the NFL. Let it burn.

Why is the left crying for Colin Kap to be picked up by a team but not Tim Tebow?

I may attempt to watch some of the NFL for the 1st time in years just to see the shite show.

Damn - I am conflicted.

I never watch NFL games - I never watch ESPN (unless force to for an LSU game)

Today, I am tempted to tune in to watch the nonsense, but I don't want to contribute to their ratings.

You do realize that at this point players will be kneeling in protest of Don, not in protest of America. Please for the love of God tell me you get that.

I protest the NFL by actually watching the games. By illegal stream...

I get it. And to do it during the national anthem will make them look worse/drive ratings lower. Thanks for your ignorance!

For the love of Christ Almighty and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost, thank you so much for clearing that up. Such a noble cause for these poor little drama queens.



Too bad white middle America, like with most things, silently keeps this NFL thing chugging along. These dumbasses will understand that when their pay goes down from falling ratings and merchandise sales.

I'll be setting my fantasy lineups and turning on my tv at 12:05 when all this anthem shite is over with

Fox, CBS, and NBC will of course be blowing it all out of proportion even though if they stopped televising it this issue would go away

Exactly. They are dumb as bricks.

Unless you have a ratings box of some sort, no one will know whether you watch or not.

So? That's something advertisers should concern themselves with. Whether or not a player kneels in protest of Don will make zero difference to me.
