Haven't watched a game since my early twenties. Same applies to any sport honestly. Guys heads filled with various team/sport stats, scores, history, names, plays, fantasy leagues and such simply never made sense to me. Aside from playing football and baseball in HS and College, it just never really interested me.

I don’t understand the attraction of being a spectator. I played in high school but when it comes to watching I’d much rather be outside doing something instead of sitting inside on my ass. ^^^^ THIS

I haven't watched it since the 90's. Sure a game or two, no and then, but I can't recall watching a single play in the past 10 years, same with all professional sports. I couldn't care any less about them if I tried.

Peyton Manning retiring took away 50% of my reason to watch. Tom Brady Leaving NE took away the other 50%. It is now totally dead.
I guess with Direct TV I still support it, de facto. Old_Toot, Get rid of DirecTV. You can save yourself a ton of money streaming. Probably around $140/mo. That's close to how much I save. Monthly nut. Comcast high speed cable only (no entertainment pkg) - $59.99 Amazon Prime - $9.99 Netflix - $8.99 IPVanish VPN - $3.28 ------------------------------- Total - $82.25 + $40 original investment for Amazon firestick. You can install IPVanish on up to 10 devices. I run it on my tv, phone, computer. Got tired of paying $217 or more a month. Trying out a 30-day trial of Showtime right now to see if I like it. Dumping cable or DirecTV entertainment packages give you that flexibility.

Haven’t watched since the 1st kneel, not starting again ether. Except I did watch part of the chiefs Super Bowl win last year +1. Stopped watching when Crapperdick started kneeling. Swore off it for good when Goodell came out in support of Crapperdick. Have not watched a down since. No intention to restart...

I have been an NFL fan since forever. I remember watching Johnny U vs the Giants on the black and white when I was a kid. When Kaepernick started his shenanigans, the League would not stop him. Said he had a First Amendment right.
No, he didn't. He was at work and his employer had the right to tell him to knock it off. Like when I was a paramedic, if I decided to wear overalls to work instead of the uniform, I would have been fired. The NFL would not stop this self centered punk, so, I quit watching. The most priveledged black men in the world, complaining about oppression. Seven million a year for catching a football, on a part time job. I went through some withdrawals and life went on.
After several years the kneeling BS had stopped and I did watch some games last year. But now, the kneeling is going to be worse than ever so I will say Bye Bye to the damn NFL. And that Goodell is a chicken sh*t. To be fair though, how would you like to ride herd on hundreds of overpaid spoiled Negro jocks. You have to cater to these clowns or the league would be up the creek.

I was finished before all the take a knee crap. I stopped when the end zone dances and the posturing after every play became ludicrous. Not to mention when the players were showing up in police photos regularly.

I’ll be done if they don’t recognize the flag and the USA during the anthem. If I said it again, oh well.

I quit watching pro football years ago. Current events just confirm I made the right call. Same with pro-basketball.

I haven't watched a game since the kneeling started. Me either. Not one play. I'll take that even farther... When an NFL commercial comes on TV, I switch the channel.

Kaepernick’s whole “show” was the end for me. Haven’t watched a game since he started all that kneeling crap.

I stopped years ago. As far as I am concerned, NFL died of "Colon" cancer. Me too.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

No you don't. What's their alternative? Assistant gymteachers in the ghetto?

Haven't watched a single mnute of a single game since the Kaepernick drama. Didn't watch very much before that b.s. Haven't lost a wink of sleep over it either.
Just because you're offended doesn't mean your right.

Yes. I haven't watched a game in 4 years. It's not that difficult.
