Bad Business

We stopped watching the Bears a few years back after losing too many toothpicks with our odds-making "friends." We stopped watching the NFL after the endless anti-Americanism took the place of simple enjoyment. So did a lot of other people it seems:
  • TV ratings for the NFL’s Thursday night opener got sacked — again — falling for the fourth straight year.

    While the NFL still commands the largest young, male demographic of any programming, the 12 percent decline from last season’s opener can’t make Commissioner Roger Goodell a happy man.

    And this season’s game featured marquee New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, but he failed to spark a rise in viewership, as the game drew just a 14.6 rating.

    Last year’s game scored a 16.5 rating — which was itself 7 percent lower than the 2015 opener.
And with the continuing politicization of football, we won't be back... along with millions of others.

NHL Hockey players, the majority of which aren't even American, give more respect to our flag and national anthem than these "opressed" primadonnas in the NFL. I used to never miss a Bears game but I too stopped watching a couple years ago and only watch hockey now. Football players can express their opinion but I'm not going to financially support you anymore.

Its not just the politisation, that's the straw that broke the back, but it the scandals, its the criminality of the players , its the missed tackles, the shoddy plays that appear orchestrated, the arrogant showboating, its the ticket prices and in Chicago its a crappy team year after year since 1985. Add in the BS calls and the games are approaching 4 hours.

I've tuned out the NFL. I don't care who wins, loses, it does not matter, I don't make a penny of it. After the vicious anti-Americsnism of that putz from San Francisco, I was done.hire home, don't I don't care. Funny, why is it this putz millionaire was never asked if the cops were so bad, racist, brutal, why did he never take a police exam and change things? We know why his act is a lie, he never gave a crap for anyone or anything but himself, kneeling to protest police brutality, spare me.

I second that. Thanks to the lowsey quarterback Kapernick I didn't watch one game last year and won't watch this year. No more fantasy football either. My kids won't be playing football mostly because of the risk of head neck and spine injuries but the actions of these spoiled selfish players is the icing on the cake. Don't want my kids playing or watching a sport where millionaire players act like that. So many others feel the same way. Fantasy leagues are way down too. The NFL has turned to shit.

I am a veteran of the United States Military, the son , nephew , grandson, grand nephew, friend and relative of varying degrees to many Us Military veterans. Many of those have served in conflict and combat. My family history and those who have fought for this country extends all the way back to the very beginning of this Country. After serving in the military my family members often found their way to first responder jobs. Every one of them, including myself have taken oaths, to defend and protect the Constitution of the United States. It insults me and the memory of all of hose who have taken that oath when some snot nosed brat refuses to recognize those who have stood honorably and defended this country. I will absolutely not watch, or patronize, in any other way a single NFL event, until these asshole MF'R's learn respect and stand the fuck up for our National Anthem. They must publicly acknowledge the errors of their ways and apologize. Otherwise "F" them.

NFL desperate to win back the white male demographic
but it's an uphill battle since interest in football is falling
off at the high school level due to revelations that Pros
died way too young from ravages of CTE. Doctor who
discovered this in Mike Webster's brain, and subsequently
other athletes, thinks parents allowing boys to play football
under the age of 18 amounts to child abuse.
Sorry NFL, the public is on to your pay them high now and
let them slowly rot away later business model is outdated.

into building dedicated playgrounds for spoiled brat athletes.

College hockey is also a fantastic sport that is way under promoted. The season is much shorter in college hockey than in the NHL and so every game counts. Plus lots of the best teams are from schools like University of North Dakota and University of Maine, University of Minnesota at Duluth. When these college hockey fans came to the United Center last March for the finals - the "Frozen Four" there were tens of thousands of nice folks like us on the West Side of Chicago. Isn't that a nice thing to contemplate?

It makes sense it is POLITICAL now - it wasn't when it was NON-PROFIT.

You mean you didn't know that until just a couple year ago the NFL was Non Profit? Well, yeah, it sure was.

Make no mistake, the political correctness of football IS destroying it.
It has now taken football to NO TACKLE until the 5th grade. My son made a perfect Ronnie Lott kind of hit on a receiver last Friday night - totally legit, just a good hit. FLAG! Each and every LEGIT actual HIT of the game by EITHER team - flagged. Personal Foul.

Hey, welcome to my world. I stopped watching most NFL games eight years ago. The players being paid more money then God could afford, talking their trash, the price of tickets, and the total disrespect of America. Everyone keeps pounding it into our heads about diversity, but blacks make up more then 70% of the players. That number doesn't seem like there's much diversity in the NFL. Presently the Kapernick character and other players supporting him, have a lack of understanding of what it took for these whining over paid mutts to be able to freely protest. If more would turn away form the NFL, it would be better for the Country in the long run. The latest sport writers are saying Irma the Hurricane is what caused the drop in NFL viewers.

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," Kaepernick said to NFL Network's Steve Wyche in August 2016. "To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."

Now, Michael Bennett is crying police brutality. Little wimp is full of shit. Watch the video.
Still curious why the traitor ran. Now he expects an apology. Bennett spent a whole 10-minutes being questions. He then said, he understood the reason he was stopped.
Afterwards, he posted police treated him poorly, and singled him out for being black.
This asshole wants an apology.

No NFL here either. I have nephews who loved football jersey's, etc. They will do without. Their parents refuse to spend another penny on any NFL junk.


Since 'players' can't stand they're unable to run, if they can't run they shouldn't attempt playing football. Toss their butts out. Hire new players.
If enough people refuse to watch, spend money on tickets and merchandise, owners will toss the traitors out...they need to men anyway. Rid the losers.

NFL lost me with the no cops allowed in the stadium with guns. but the nail in the coffin is the anti-Americanism as you said ... I'm done supporting thug millionaires.

First we had the Ferguson effect, then the ACLU effect, and now, the Kaepernick effect. These progressive bastards have literally torn the few threads left holding America together. Who would have thought that working class blue collar America would have become so disgruntled with the status quo of pandering to who the fuck ever that they would stop watching football?! I mean holy shit if alarms aren't going off, the powers that be have a big problem and a day of reckoning coming. Let's be real, these bastards pander to everyone except the taxpayer who pays their fucking bills....and been doing it far too long....their mistakes will be realized soon enough. They should have hammered Kaepernick at the beginning suffered an initial bout of bad press and rebounded after the ghetto forgot a week later because they needed something to do on Sunday besides get a job. I mean Kaepernick magically discovered he was black only at the point in his career where he sucked so bad he needed to become relevant again, taking a page out of the Bobby Rush playbook. Now if anyone fires him it'll be a shitstorm no matter how bad he fucking plays. I mean well played on his part but the rest of us are fucking sick of you disrespecting our flag, our veterans and our country. You don't like living here fucking leave and see how good you fare anywhere else except for America, you fake socialist Hillary voting fuck.

Kapernick ruined it. Good job, asshole! I guess you made your point, now, the poor black athletes that follow you are going to make less and less. You don't politicize a game you nit wit. If people get tired of your shenanigans, they turn off the tv.

9/10/2017 02:03:00 AM

Kapernick was the icing on the cake. things like this made me stop...

Also Letting players beat their wives and give only one and two game suspensions while suspending guys for four games for smoking weed or ingesting a legal but banned substance. not to mention the years of denying concussions.

Screw the NFL. They get no time or money from me. Ill stick with Base Ball and hockey.

Ha, fuck that National Felon League! That Krusty the Clown looking Kaepernick (sorry, no offense Krusty) is just the beginning of the shit show you will get treated to every Monday night. He's just one sample of the new breed millennial socialist/commie loving snowflakes that will throw all kinds of virtue signaling tantrums for attention and publicity. Many more of these irrelevant million dollar contract crybabies will follow suit if the organization allows this bs to continue, which they will at least until they really start feeling it in the pocket book. It's all a total joke. Ironic how all these social justice warriors in pro football will boycott the American flag, the anthem, and denounce this country that allows them the luxury of playing a game for millions, but they remain silent and have no protest against fellow players who beat the crap out of their girlfriends, wives, get busted for DUIs, drugs, and dog fighting, and gang banging. GTFO!

The NFL Thursday Night broadcast has been a disaster for some time.
They are doing everything in it's power to keep it afloat. It's just a BAD
Idea. I think the Sunday & monday night games will be Ok.
Plus the storms from Texas & Florida probably played an effect too.

Oh boy, sounds like fun, let's all go to a soccer game to see what it is like to live in a third world country. No thanks.
It may be ok to play soccer, but to waste time watching it, I just don't get it, that would be like watching golf on tv.

I too stopped watching the NFL. Could not stand the disgust i was watching with the anti-American antics. Shitheads getting praise? Not my cup of tea. There are many good players in the league and still play with class but no more giving attention to the shithead, ungrateful idiots who don't deserve to be American or live in the USA.

The NFL should have known some Americans will place their country above a bunch of overpaid two year olds playing ball.
You would think the owners paying these infants millions of dollars would enforce a code of conduct upon them. Commit a crime, contract cancelled, no ifs ands or buts! Fail a drug test, contract cancelled. Disrespect your nation and kiss your ass goodbye, and good riddance!
Like Hollywood movie stars, none of them have an opinion I value more than my own.

I like football, love the Bears, and watched all day today and I'll watch both games tomorrow night. Reading some of the posts I just started laughing. To keep this simple, I'm not seeing all this disrespect going on. Because one or two asshats on a team don't want to stand for the National Anthem, who cares, fuck them. There are only a handful of teams these clowns are on. Also, the hypocrisy is running wild here; So 10 players in the NFL don't stand for the anthem, and suddenly the entire league is fucked up and you want to boycott? Sounds just like BLM asshats that blame an entire police department for the fucked up actions of a few. Some start crying because the NFL won't allow the Dallas Cowboys' players to wear stickers honoring police on thier helmets? Are you a snowflake or something? Crying because you can't carry your gun into a stadium? Don't go then. Ok, gotta go, Giants and Cowboys getting underway.

One last thing: check the story on what the Cleveland Browns did today during the National Anthem, you'll see it's not all bad!

Many thugs in college football too....but pick a school, one that you're comfortable with, follow their season. Get some tickets, go to a game, tailgate, have a few cocktails, BBQ.
Follow their games on tv, etc. etc. etc.

FUCK the NFL, FUCK the BEARS.
Enjoy the College season........GO ND.

9/10/2017 09:24:00 AM

I agree. GO North Dakota!

Seriously, Division II and Division III footbal is great. The players are playing because they love the game.

And the tickets are dirt cheap. You can take your kids with you to the game, and even feed them for less than one NFL Ticket.

NFL ratings have been dropping for a while. Why should gamblers watch a whole game when they can just keep up with their bets by watching NFL RedZone? Face it, much of the popularity of pro football has to do with betting. You don't need to actually watch the games to follow your investment.

Remember the thug linemen from St Louis walking on the field with their hands raised? Wasn't that the big lie in the black community after the Michel Brown attacked the police officer?

Steelers/Browns (yesterday)
DID NOT WATCH GAME
Just learning NOW from Rush Limbaugh that Browns
ran a 30-second pre-filmed video before game with a
group of Browns black players airing grievances; this done
with the approval of Browns owner and his wife. WTF?
These are two small-market teams. This Kaepernick thing
is spreading. I REFUSE to watch; happy I did not waste my
time yesterday. TONIGHT: Will the players spoil the date of
Sept. 11th with some bullshit protest?

Boycott the NFL [National Football Liberals] They just want your money to spend on their Leftist-Communist Globalist Agenda. Soo tired of the protests, pink ribbons, bleeding-heart Announcers, Diversity, Politically-Correct Commercials, thug criminal punk players making millions and acting like spoiled pussys.

If you have to watch, I humbly suggest The Pack. No kneeling, no BS, FULL size flag that covers the entire field for The Anthem. And yes Dix did write the names of the KIA on his cleats. Not trying to promote anything or persuade anyone to come back to the Sunday Farce, but the GBP are a class team in a sea of delinquent mediocrity if you need that autumn fix. Grab a Leinie's and a brat and enjoy, you know that you would rather be "up north" than here anyway!

I've always been a hardcore Bears fan, it's to the point for me that I only watch the Bears. I want nothing to do with the rest of the NFL! I can't even stomach the national pre game bullshit shows. I do know that John Fox of the Bears strongly encourages his players to respect the flag and our national anthem. I never thought I'd say that I like and respect the Packers, but they seem more pro American than most teams. I hope people keep protesting the NFL and they keep losing revenue! F Kaperdick and Michael Bennet! God Bless America!!!

Do what I do : Record the game , then start watching it about an hour after it starts - that way you can fast forward past all the contrived political BS ( and the commercials ). Makes for a old fashioned - no BS - good day .
