      I’ve watched every Super Bowl for over 30 straight years. This year I will not be watching. I have not watched a single NFL game this season. They have effectively banned Colin Kaepernick from the league due to a peaceful protest of police brutality. This will never be OK.

          Watching their hands shake in slow motion.... what a tough video to watch.

          My first husband played college football-quarterback. At 22, it was found he had a “very large “ lesion in his brain. Three years after this and a MS diagnosis, he died crossing the center line and hitting another car head on. He was only 27. Always suspected 🏈 as the cause.

          So, you want Colin to play, but you don't want anyone else to play because of concussions. I'm pro-peaceful protests, but pick a lane!

          This film will only have impact with people who aren't football fans. You're preaching to the choir & unwittingly serving the spectacle rather than educating. I know you can do better.

          Dude, you said you’re not watching due to Colin...not CTE. Do you want Colin to get CTE? Your tweets are not straight forward.

          I couldn't watch the whole thing - I also quit watching the @NFL because of how they handled the @Kaepernick7 peaceful demonstration, & their refusal to bring him back in the game. I'll stay away because of that & their commitment to the violent head injuries & not addressing it

          Why only focus on the NFL? There are so many sports with his issues. Hell look at pre wrestling if you wanna pick just 1.
