I for one, have lost all interest in the NFL.  I'm from Minnesota, my team was always the Vikings, hell, when I was stationed in California, I went and found the Southern California Vikings fan club!  But alas...  Now my Vikings could go to the Super Bowl, and I still wouldn't watch the game.

Ditto. Started last year with the boycott and still doing it today. They can kneel if they want and the owners can support them if they want, but I won't be a party to it...When they feel like they can stand for our flag and all it represents, they I will buy and watch again...it's the owners and the NFL's choice.

It's reached the point of being pointless and ineffective. Only the media is paying any attention to it anymore.

And CK has gone beyond redemption by suing the NFL for collusion.

Dude that ratings drop has a lot more to do than JUST the kneeling

Even though the player protest does attribute to the decline but also due to people dropping the cable packages. ESPN's ratings for Monday Night Football have actually INCREASED this year as opposed to last year not to mention Sunday Night Football this week was one the highest rated games around this time within the last 2 years.
