Beef o’Bradys decision to turn off the NFL is going to have no impact on the situation. I love football and I will continue to watch despite the disrespect shown by a handful of players. Plain and simple these guys are jerks and I am not going to let them change my love for the game.
When they all follow the jerks then maybe I will change my mind until then I am watching.

Not a big surprise to me, that our friends and
relatives would be different.

Only one with letters and numbers on this thread.

I used to have a really good memory for details like this.
I've always been of the opinion that they should make it a requirement you must have your photo in your avatar. I believe you would see a lot less name calling, and hostile behavior if that was true. If you don't have a picture of yourself, the camera on your computer will work.

As far as the NFL, real football fans such as myself, don't go to a bar to watch THEIR team, they have Directv and NFL Sunday Ticket at home on their own 75" TV. I've never watched MY team in a bar, a club, a motel room, anywhere other than at my own home and I've never missed a game in their 21 years of existence except for a blacked out game in 1997 that I had to listen to on the radio. I schedule vacations, events and everything around Sundays and any night games of my team. I generally watch all the NFL teams and games regardless of who they are besides my own team.

Problem is the jerks that run the NFL are Snowflakes. One owner, Jerry Jones, has mandated if you want to play on my team you stand. I'm a huge Cowboys fan. Unfortunately it's not enough because they have to play teams run by the jerks you speak of.....Steelers one of the worst.

This tradition deserves respect and unfortunately, the NFL does not feel that same way. So, for this season, we will not be purchasing the NFL ticket. Perhaps, it will make a difference if it hits their wallets.

The restaurant will save more than $5,000 by canceling its package and instead will offer veterans 40 percent off on food Sundays during game days.

Why did you neglect to mention this only applies to the BOB bar in Brooksville Florida? Your post in it's current form is misleading.

I will still watch football, but not at a bar. I record every game. I fast forward past everything, including the scratching between plays. Protest wherever they want, I won't see them!
