Still boycotting. Yes I do read the scores, but have my Sunday afternoons to me and the house projects. I could care less if it is peaceful or not- wrong avenue to protest and wrong message received as well. My boycott is respecting their avenue to protest- mine will eventually hit them when others like me continue to tune out. Said it before- baseball strike of '94 hurt baseball and they still have never really recovered. Still making money, but the pie is much smaller now.

Great track from their debut.
CERTAIN NFL PLAYERS WANTONLY AND WITH MALICE OF FORETHOUGHT DECIDED TO PUBLICLY DENIGRATE THE FLAG AND BY EXTENSION DENIGRATE THE SACRIFICE OF OVER 1,000,000 WHO FELL IN ITS DEFENSE. THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTEST AND EMPLOYERS HAVE A RIGHT TO SET SPECIFIC BEHAVIORS FOR THEIR EMPLOYEES .HOWEVER, NO LAW COMPELS ME TO AGREE WITH THEIR PROTEST. I STILL HAVE FREEDOM OF CHOICE AND I CHOOSE TO EXERCISE THAT FREEDOM TO VIEW THEIR PROTEST WITH CONTEMPT AND LOATHING. ACCORDINGLY, ANY LOYALTY I FELT TO ANY NFL TEAM, OR TO THE LEAGUE ITSELF IS IRREVOCABLY SEVERED AND I WILL NEVER WATCH ANOTHER NFL GAME. THE DAMAGE IS DONE.

The owners are the employers so they have every right to do so. If I tried pulling some political, "look-at-me" (because that's all it really is) protest stunt, I'd be fired on the spot.

This shows that this whole thing was not some wholesome demonstration of 'Murica. Everyone with half a brain knew this would eventually happen when certain monetary thresholds were met.
But for me, too little, too late. Even as a lifetime Dolphins fan, I won't watch NFL because it has demonstrated its lack of dedication to this nation, and its two-faced, waffling flip-flop, hoping fans are either too stupid or not attentive enough to realize the hypocrisy.
