OT, Why didn't TV networks show angry, booing NFL fans Sunday or Monday?
Political Correctness is going to kill the NFL. Fans are tuning out and some advertisers are pulling out. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

I was born back in the middle of the last century when my parents were students at The University of Alabama so my hatred of football makes me an evil heretic. My father was an über-fan of the silly game and would park himself in front of the TV whenever a game was on. I'd grab a book and go find a quiet spot so I could get away from the noise. ヽ(ヅ)ノ [8~{} Uncle Bookish Monster |

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. |

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. |

I like football and thus far, my favorite team hasn't publicized any political crap. Therefore, I'll watch. But if they do, I'm done and the only remaining sport I watch now is hockey. IMO, the NHL has always been displayed with some of the most classiest athletes and hopefully that remains. One can watch an awards show or other NHL event and they will notice class acts starting with the dress style to their mannerism and overall attitude. The truth lies within the race majority in each sport. |

Ralph McInerny was a professor at Notre Dame but also wrote mysteries like the Father Dowling series. There was also a series set at Notre Dame like 'Irish Tenure'. He was a Catholic traditionalist and could have an acid tongue at times. One of my favorite quips was 'the Fighting Southern Baptists of Notre Dame'. |

The networks don't want to remind viewers about the controversy and risk their ratings. Ratings translate to advertising revenue. It's all about the money. Advertisers don't want their products associated with a controversy. Remember Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction"? Cindy Hamilton |
