Default OT, Why didn't TV networks show angry, booing NFL fans Sunday or Monday?

It could happen fast and its their own fault for letting it happen.



Did the owners of the NFL teams and TV networks not notice who was elected President of The United States after 8 years of a Commiecrat in The White House?! It's time they told the spoiled overpaid jocks to STFU and behave themselves. The owners are learning a hard lesson about alienating their fans, the very source of their income. I hate football anyway and have never watched it. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

The level of greed instills a blind eye for the owners who continue to
pay high dollars in order to win. Winning brings in more money. The love
of playing the game in any sport has vanished and replaced by how much
money can I earn.

Years ago when the MLB strike occurred due to the players demand of more
money, I stopped watching and haven't taken an interest since then. IMO,
a fat athlete who often has few interactions with the play of the game
and is more inactive than other vigorous sports shouldn't be paid many
millions of dollars. Those high dollars rebound back to the fans who
have to pay higher costs if they want to take their family to a game.

Now, with this political bull**** entering sports, these selfish
ignorant crybabies are butthurt and take advantage of the limelight
opportunity to express their emotion. They should be fired. How many
other common employers would tolerate that? Not many. We all know people
have been fired for expressing themselves on a social media page. This
is no different.

It's not about freedom of speech, it's about being right. They simply
use that as an excuse. Freedom of speech should be done on your own time
and even then, as I stated, they can still have repercussions. Using it
while being paid at your job should cost them that job, I don't give a
damn how good they are at it.


Compare the coverage that Tebow got when he kneeled in prayer before
games. Networks called it "polarizing" and questioned why it should
be done at a game. And note he didn't do it while disrespecting the
flag and violating NFL rules. I heard discussion on the radio, that
some Dallas Cowboys players wanted to honor the Dallas cops that
were assassinated, they went about it the right way, asked for approval,
it was denied. Some other players wanted to do something to commemorate
9/11, they too were denied. That's the hypocrisy that so many of us
are fed up with.
