For the third week in a row, ratings for the NFL have fallen due to anti-American protests during the playing of the national anthem. While ESPN praises Kaepernick and his teammates for taking a knee and disrespecting America both on and off the field, the NFL is losing quite a bit of viewers. Why, you might be wondering. Well, if you take into consideration that unlike the MLB and the NHL, the NFL is made up of mostly American players, as are their viewers.
While this week’s drop happened to coincide with the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, ratings have been decreasing steadily since the start of the season. According to Sports Business Daily, ratings have dropped by eighteen percent since this point last season. And this is all thanks to Kaepernick and his “protest.” Since he started this movement he probably hoped would keep him relevant, several other players across the league have joined him. It’s really rather ironic if you think about it. None of these players live in poverty, and they probably know about as little about American as a three year old child does. And their actions haven’t stopped at taking a knee.

Have people of color been good for AMERICA? that road runs both ways
This idiot Kapernick, who says this Country will never be great again, because it was NEVER great, little boy, you are too young, I came here a long, long time ago, it was a GREAT Country !! It will be a great Country again, if we can ever get rid of the great divider who has managed to do enough damage in 8 years that it will take years to repair, However if your buddy Hill gets in, we might as well all commit suicide, it will be faster.
Good I hope half the country stops watching.
And people of color are disrespectful of America.
Why don’t all of you millionaires do something more positive?? Showing your negative attitude breeds more negativity. Educate your ignorant ghetto counterparts. Talk up family values. Teach black men some responsibility.
Women aren’t all bitches and hoes.
Teach the women to not lay down so quick. Atleast not without protection.
Little children without a family unit!!
The next generation of ghetto rats and gangstas.
Wake up NFL !! You could bring about the needed change. Instead of promoting racial tensions.
All you’re doing is pissing on America’s shoes.
BE PART OF THE SOLUTIONS, not PART OF THE PROBLEMS!!!
BOYCOTT NFL FOR GOOD !!!
Black president,black AG’s, black politicians,black lawyers, black millionaires everywhere….
All countries had indentured,enslaved….ALL…some still do and Hillary takes money from them….fuk the NFL
The option is to ignore the NFL and find another hobby. I suspect when the money tree dries up the sponsors will take notice and act accordingly. Seems the priorities need to be changed.
Give it to the in their pocketbook
if you don’t like our National Anthem, our Flag, our Pledge of Allegiance then leave our country. we don’t like or need you here.
They should get down on their knees and thank God that they are in this country. Where else would anyone put up with their idiocy and still make them mega rich? Ungreatful, unthankful, unholy!
