    My conscience simply does not allow me to watch the NFL because of what they have done and continue to do to Colin Kaepernick. I watched the @NFL for over 30 years. Was a league pass holder. But I cannot watch and support what they are doing to a modern day hero. Disgusting.

        Been a diehard @49ers fan since I was 5. I used to pay $10k per year to my home team. Been boycotting the @49ers & @NFL since they colluded against my boy @Kaepernick7. And yes idiots: collusion IS a crime under antitrust laws & sports law, especially with respect to their CBA.

        Same with me! Same exact age I started watching them, (although probably not the same year😜😜) but I just can’t do it no more and if @Kaepernick7 gets back in the league the team that signs him will be my new team

        Good for you. But kapernick would never have played in Washington even if they brought him in. He wasn't an amazing qb. Did you even watch him play before he got black balled in the NFL? He wasn't great. Mediocre at best.

        He was good enough to start for the Niners and get them to the Super Bowl. He sure is better than 50% of those starting now and he is better than the 5th round draft pick now behind center. The lie that he’s not good enough for the league is equal to every lie about CTE

        Rg3 got the Redskins to the playoffs. Look at where he is now (and don't tell me it was his injuries). Kap had a good season, you're right. He's better than SOME of the QBs in the league but def not 50%. You're delusional. He went 3-16 in his last 2 years in the league

        Countless QBs out there who had ‘a great year’ once upon a time.

        This is my 2nd year straight of not watching so much as one NFL game, including the playoffs and Super Bowl for the same reason. I don't miss it.

        Social justice hero, perhaps. Good quarterback, no. Even funnier is seeing the blowhards and folks like yourselves keeping this alive. No team wants him...no team will sign him. No team needs the circus that follows him. Game over. He can make his millions elsewhere.

        I too am a long time fan. And am not watching this year either for the same reason. That and the general kneeling ban policy

        Made this decision before the season started. Canned fantasy and haven't watched a minute of NFL all year. Just following Reid and Kap. Interesting telling folks in my conservative town that I'm boycotting the NFL and watching their expression change to confusion when I say why.
