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.

People reap what they sew !
I will continue to boycott NFL. Plus suggest friends an family do like wise. Also boycotting sponsors.
Share this with your friends, family and neighbors.
GOOD !
Just a bunch of untalented, overpaid spoiled brats – who needs them …..
i only wish nobody goes to your games see how much you feel vindicated when people will not buy your merchandise. fools
I love it. You cannot get away with trashing the country that supports your livelihood. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. I don’t believe they care anyway. I think this is just a ploy for attention.
Don’t buy their sponsored products either !
America has been lied to by your beloved OBAMA and HILLARY. RACE BAITING WAS THEIR KEY TO THE DESTRUCTION and it is up to AMERICANS to give them the FINGER ON THIS ONE or we all LOSE!
BOYCOTT NFL !
I understand where they are coming from but to disrespect the flag in my opinion is not the right way to go about it there are other ways what will happen eventually the clubs wont be able to afford ur wages (attendances down) and a lot of u possibly all will be out of a job
