They should do what SJWs do and put pressure on sponsors to force the NFL to capitulate. One good turn deserves another.

Is this like that thing where a boycott group formed over something in a CoD game, then they mostly went on to all play it anyway?

No u, reeeee!

Seriously, there are two things at play here:

1) DoD paid the NFL for the players to stand during the anthem. Whether or not this is ethical is another discussion but if the players don't stand, it is a breach of contract.

2) The fans are the customers. They have every right to stop being customers at any time for any reason.

They do have that right, it doesn't make them any less of whiny SJWs.

Changing the channel doesn't make one an SJW, but pulling stunts like this certainly qualifies:

They are not just changing the network. People want these people to be fired. The president of the US is taking time out of his day to insults the mother of players. Because people want to show pride in a nation that sees them as second class.

They don't want to financially support an industry that disrespects the country. It's not being a snowflake, it's just something they don't want to support.

There's literally nothing inherently disrespectful about kneeling during the anthem.

In fact, kneeling for something is usually a SIGN OF RESPECT. Obviously, context matters. However, it's their fucking right to kneel.

Yes, it's their right. That doesn't mean they should be FINANCIALLY SUPPORTED for exercising their right in a way that people find offensive.

If people burned a Koran, would you expect Muslims to pay those people?

I don't know what slandering me has to do with NFL fan backlash, but keep virtue-signalling. Maybe it will work as well for you as it has been working for the NFL.

You brought up Nazi's....I was just asking a question based on prior comments you said and the tag I have for you and wanted to make sure I was correct. And your lack of answering kind of leads me to believe I was. Carry on

what's with all these snowflakes letting the entire three hour game get "ruined" by something that happens for about one minute at the very beginning of the game?


Because gamers didn't let a 90 hour journey be ruined by about one minute at the end?

So people want NFL to be a safe space? lol

Yup. Thats why its comical when flag worshippers try to say they are not SJWs or not needing a safe space. They are and they do.

Yes snowflakes have a right to not watch the NFL, however it doesnt change the reason they are not watching it. Flag and song worshippers crying right now are a bunch of snowflake who need a safe space because of their delusional cult.

Post 122/500

Happy NFL Sunday everyone! How are your teams / fantasy teams doing?

EDIT: I guess it's too early to ask about real teams, unless you're a Saints/Dolphins fan, in which case I'm sorry you had to wake up early to watch this snoozefest.

EDIT 2: Or Packers / Bears.

If this actually happens I guarantee the players will voluntarily stop protesting. This "protest" is just virtue signaling. The second their wallets are affected they'll stop.

well yeah it's become very politicized

it's hard to even talk about the games without some fuck bringing up the national anthem.

Everyone tuned in to last week's pregames specifically to hear people talk about the national anthem. I don't know if this is true. It seems people say one thing and do another.

Hit the nail on the head.

This goes with everything. Movies. Tv shows. Magazines. Restaurants. Everything. People complain about stuff they don't care about. And then the companies that change start asking why it didn't work. "People asked for this, why didn't it sell." Because the people that don't care are the ones asking for it.

Exactly, it isnt open for debate. No one must stand for a piece of cloth or song and its not disrespectful just because it hurts your wittle feelings. Ironic to call someone a buttercup when you are acting like one.

Btw, calling it a cult isnt meant to be an insult. Its what you guys are, a cult. You believe everyone should stand for a song and a piece of cloth. Anyone who doesnt are heathens. Some even argue crazy things like leave america. Why...because in their delusional minds their religious like practice is the only way you can love your country. Something trivial as kneeling goes against the cults rules which therefore hurts their feelings.
Authoritarian, religious like group who have a specific set of rules that you believe everyone should follow with complete loyalty to it.....anyone who deviates from the specific rules(make believe rules) are heathens because they are wrong for having different rules. Especially rules that are far more relaxed.

The irony is these same flag worshippers pretend they are not SJWs themselves or not snowflakes looking for a safe space.
