Still Watching the NFL (National Felon League)???

In 2012 the NFL had an issue with Tim Tebow kneeling for each game to pray, they also had an issue with Tebow wearing John 3:16 as part of his eye black to avoid glare, and made him take it off.
In 2013 the NFL fined Brandon Marshall for wearing green cleats to raise awareness for people with mental health disorders.
In 2014 Robert Griffin III (RG3) entered a post-game press conference wearing a shirt that said "Know Jesus Know Peace" but was forced to
turn it inside out by an NFL uniform inspector before speaking at the podium.
In 2015 DeAngelo Williams was fined for wearing "Find the Cure" eye black for breast cancer awareness..
In 2015 William happy was fined for wearing purple cleats to raise awareness for domestic violence.(Not that the NFL has a domestic
violence problem...)
In 2016 the NFL prevented the Dallas Cowboys from wearing a decal on their helmet in honor of 5 Dallas Police officers killed in the line of duty.
In 2016 the NFL threatened to fine players who wanted to wear cleats to commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11. So tell me again how the NFL
supports free speech and expression, all of a sudden... It seems quite clear based on these facts that the NFL has taken a position against any action
by NFL players demonstrating RESPECT for any issue: For God, social causes such as mental health, cancer, domestic violence, for cops killed arbitrarily for being
cops, for the Memory of 9/11... But, they will allow demonstrations of DISRESPECT for our National Flag, our National Anthem, for America, and for the American People, if it will help mollify a particular group and its supporters (such as BLM, and other leftists.)
That is who and what the NFL has shown itself to be.

Not spending my money on that crap.
Best to avoid.
I'd watch, in fact I'd even PAY to watch...if they'd promise to give Tom Brady an * probing with "Lucille" (Negan's barb wire wrapped Louisville Slugger)...just over, and over, and over...and over again!! I could watch hours of that! Hell, I'd even tolerate commercials!
"And when we come back from the break we'll have another 35 minutes of non-stop savage abuse of Tom Brady's rectum, uninterrupted. Stay tuned. After that, we'll have a bonus segment to take suggestions from our viewers."
And if you text to 1 (855) SCAM-ME right now you can choose:
1. Launch Tom Brady into the Sun
2. Throw Tom Brady into a wood chipper (over and over)
3. Urinate on Tom Brady's flaming corpse
(Yeah, I'd pay to see that!)
If a man pondered for a while, maybe even slept on it for a few days, he could be left with the impression you have a slight issue with Tom Brady. Did Mr. Brady do something to you that raised your ire?

I thought I hated Little Tommy.
F them![:(!]
Support them? -- *
But the hypocrisy is alarming. WWBFS ... WHAT WOULD BEN FRANKLIN SAY ... A bunch of 'men', some of whom receive contracts which pay more than the Colonies spent on the War.
And now a bunch of rich owners are kissing donkey over the 'issue'. [:D]
I have not watched a MLB game since the 3rd strike ('94) nor a single NFL game in 2 years. (I have never watched NBA. Went to a few games with vendors in the 90's left before the first period was over).

+1
bleen Pro Sports, the players and the owners.
F the NFL and the horse they rode in on...
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
