Boycott NFL today

Posted November 11, 2018 12:00 am

Please boycott the NFL on Veteran's Day. I hope many people, if not all, will boycott/not attend/not watch any NFL this weekend into Monday.

There have been too many instances of NFL players kneeling during the national anthem. Many broadcast stations, including ESPN, will not broadcast the national anthem. And now cheerleaders are kneeling. So, I think it's only fitting we not attend or watch any NFL.

I was an avid NFL fan and watched many years of football. But as of 2017 and now 2018, I do not watch or attend any NFL. Don't even read the paper.

As a Vietnam veteran, it is disgraceful that these players show such disrespect.
