Default Monday Night Football Poll

If you are specifically tuning out Monday Night Football tonight (9/25) because of the player protests please reply.

I tuned out the 49's after the first one and I will not watch any other game until the players show the respect for our flag and country that they should. Our country is free because of lots of brave people who gave their life to allow them the freedom to play football and earn the mega bucks they do.

I served in south east Asia during Vietnam and was spit on by the public when I returned in uniform. I didn't accept the disrespect then and I will not now. Since then I have never watched anything with Jane Fonda and never will. Don't think I missed much. And if the football ratings plummet as they should, maybe these idiots will realize they need the viewing public or their paychecks will also plummet. I am probably in the minority with this opinion but so be it.

Tuning out completely, after last season I throttled down my NFL watching, now I'm out completely. Funny thing was I actually enjoyed my sundays not being tied to the tv and enjoying other activities. It's not the end all the NFL thinks it is to many of us.

Another veteran here. USAF 1969/1973. This kneeling when our national anthem is playing is just down right WRONG. It's a disgrace. I'm tuning out.

Currently driving MB number 12 and just let them know it will be the last if they continue to sponsor the NFL. Great suggestion Chatbrat.
