re: Boycott the NFL

The players are kneeling. The fans are leaving. They get paid obscene amounts of money to play a really fun game.
These players will single-handedly put themselves out of a job.
When a person or person(s) blatantly disrespect something that other people greatly respect, your protest becomes ineffective. People don't care what your protest is about because they are too angered by your actions of disrespect
If the players want to protest something, they need ti do it in a different way.
