Pro sports and perhaps even college sports are dead to me. I will never watch another pro game, ever (fairly easy for me, I really did not watch before)

However, now I will not even buy anything that advertises with the pro teams, and this includes the sponsors of the stadiums. If the emblem is on it, or I hear they sponsor, I will not pick it up.

Now I am sure they are devastated to hear that they will not be getting my $.02 but there are other options out there.

One thing's for sure, I have lost a lot of respect for Drew Brees. That dude and Tom Brady were two of my favorite players in the NFL. Now it looks like only Tom Brady remains.

I agree wholeheartedly. Many other choices besides NFL and NBA.

I’m still planning to watch on TV (for now), but I’ll never buy another ticket or piece of merchandise for as long as i live. I’ve already wasted enough money on that junk anyway. Why support people who hate you? You are a masochist if you do.

Thanks for letting us know. I barely slept last night wondering how you were going to handle this.

What’s funny is that when the bama players walk out of practice in protest, you’ll claim you’re “done”

But still turn the TV on in a few weeks and watch them.

They are expressing publicly now what they said in private in the past. Many here are so soft. Football won’t miss you

I agree wholeheartedly. Let the liberal fans support them.

I am so disappointed in Brees. Saints are dead to me. Even the Broncos up here don't do the woke shite.

Nope, you are wrong.

Besides, I already have already seen Alabama win more National titles in football during my lifetime than any of you will see if you live to be 200 years old.

I do hope they do not walk out, but it is what it is.

Not brave, just thinking. I will not support something that I know is damaging or a lie. I lost family is WW2 in Germany and Russia, and the liberal/Democrats are doing the same things that lead up to it.

You support people that would kill your family if they could? BLM and Antifa would if they could

Maybe these guys need to take a big fat pay cut and realize how good they used to have it by getting paid millions and playing a game for their livelihood before they decided to "speak out."

I'm still waiting for their list of things that they want to be done that benefit us all. Right now, they are protesting for awareness. Ok, we are aware, now what? The longer they go now, the more sympathy they will lose.

Weird you would come to a sports message board to announce this
