I'm not even a NE fan and I still hate Roger Goodell. I know that's not rational, but it's true.
He's cowered to the millionaire babies who ruin a good Sunday by not standing during our Anthem. Why Goodell thinks allowing players to express themselves politically each and every Sunday is a good idea is beyond me. It is the last thing I want to see when I turn on a game. Not only that, I have to hear abour politics from ESPN afterwards.
As recent articles have shown, people are turning off the NFL. I did it all day yesterday until the Cowboys game (when I used to watch the Giants and the Jets as well). I have friends who take the protests even more personally and haven't watched a lick.
The league will never fold but I'm ok with it taking a hit.
And yes, Trump is benefitting from these protests.
