Haven�t watched in over 2 years. Have no plans to.

I listen to Sirius game broadcasts and sync the tv with my iPhone.
Mostly because I prefer Brad and Babe for the Cowboys games.
But I agree tv broadcasting has wrongly infused broadcasts with things that aren't a necessary or even interesting addition, to their detriment I might add.

I turn my attention to bull riding when baseball season is over.

This could also be counted as an �olds� thread

The old saying " throwing the baby out with the bath water comes to mind "

How sensitive does a person have to be to let a couple of bad actors ruin
a whole industry.

Pick any activity or industry , I will show you idiots ,

If you stop watching , the kneelers have won.

Note , Kaepernick is not playing in the NFL.

have a good day folks

Too much logic in this thread.
I must've ventured into a parallel universe.

This is where I'm at. Seen a couple cowboys games later on this year. Used to watch every game on Thursday/Sunday/Monday. Dak kinda sucks. Cooper is awesome. Zeke is Zeke. Garrett still isn't ever going to win a super bowl.

As for the rest of the NFL, whatever. I only watched a few cowboys games because my wife really wanted to see them. I have no use for people who disrespect the national anthem for a fake issue.

I only watch Cowboys because Jerry said kneel and you lose your job.

Honest question - where do you draw the line? If openly and repeatedly disrespecting our national anthem for an issue (that stats says doesn't exist) isn't over the line, then what is? Is there a cause they could support or an activity they could undertake that would make you stop watching?

I suppose at some level it depends on how important what you're giving up is. To me, the NFL product has gone so far downhill that it wasn't a huge sacrifice to find other things to do. But if you really love it, then I can see how some political issues would seem trivial.

Was that before or after he and every member of the Cowboys knelt?

When they kneel I squat

I guess from my own point of view I do not expect everyone and everything to have to agree with my opinions. I have never really been bothered or felt threatened by differing views. I am focused enough and committed to my own views that others do not have the ability to affect or change my views unless I allow that. I like hearing the other side and I like learning. Does not mean I will agree with them just means I have no issues with others expressing their opinions even if it goes against what I believe.

I put it in perspective and keep it realistic, the NFL is a reflection of society. It is not out there trying to tear down the US. They are not anti American and they are gonna kill the country in any way. Again I keep it in perspective. Its a game, its entertainment, I enjoy watching it since it was a sport I enjoyed playing and I have no issues saying I watch and support it.

As far as my own protesting there are companies I simply choose to not do business with or support. Usually customer service related more than anything else.

I'd mess up your bet... Except, I have been on strike since the players went on strike back in the 80's. I don't miss anything about the sport in any fashion. For me it is just a waste of time.
