The NFL viewership and attendance is declining. So, let's alienate a large percentage of the population. Genius.

Here is what hypocrisy looks like in Trump world.
The guy on the left is 'protesting' whereas the guy on the right is 'praying'.
Could have fooled me.
The guy on the left has started a protest movement, the other a short lived cult.

Only people who could possibly feel alienated are bigots. Good riddance!

Mainly white nationalists trying to frame this as a patriotic issue. You can entertain us but we don't give a fuck if you get home alive after the show.

That's right. Bigot, racist , homophobe,....

This is going to cost the NFL and it's players hundreds of millions of dollars potentially. They are already having to pay $200 million back because ratings are not up to contract requirements. Congratulations.

Trump doesn't have more important things to worry about?
Like North Korea or health care or the destruction of the hurricanes and floods....

I will bet that the reason NFL attendance is down is because of the economy, how many people can afford to spend a couple of hundred bucks per person to go and watch a game?
As for viewership, blame it on the couch surfers doing Facebook because they are bored with the commercials.

Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys for $140M in 1989; they are worth $4.8 Billion today. So what's a $200M decline in TV revenues?

OTOH, your buddy and our fearless leader was too cheap (or could not qualify) and bought NJ Generals of WFL instead, and then lost a ton of money till the league folded. So there is some serious Billionaire envy & resentment going on here.
