    They have the right to be assholes. I have the right to boo or not buy an expensive ticket and drink a lukewarm $10 beer.

    you are absolutely right,.. problem is, they won't even know, you're one person, your decision will go unnoticed,.. in theory, you've made a point,.. in reality, it's an empty gesture, and you're only hurting yourself,.. enjoy your no football

    GDF if that's true then why are boycotts successful?

    I hope we don't have to wait til spring,.. it's trending that way

    before covid, there was talk, a popular idea in the pac, about starting college baseball later in the year... works for me

    name one in the US over the last 50 years that's been successful

    my mom had a california issued nursing licence, oregon wouldn't accept it, she needed to take a test which she'd of easily passed,.. but she didn't think that fair, got belligerent and refused out of protest, so instead of being an emergency room nurse, she cleaned houses,.. she sure taught the state of oregon a lesson it'll never forget

    I hear talk of boycotting the nfl over unimportant stunts like kneeling, it makes my blood boil,.. that's joining with kaperfuck, trying to bend the nfl over a chair,.. the nfl can't win, they're gonna get hate fucked no matter what,.. I hope any kind of sports boycott always fails miserably

    Hmmm, have you not paid attention to all the logos changing, the statues being removed and flags being banned?

    I see your reasoning there, though that doesn't really fit with what I was thinking of as a boycott :.. to engage in a concerted refusal to have dealings with (a person, a store, an organization, etc.) usually to express disapproval or to force acceptance of certain conditions... :cool: I'll give you that one, elo

    that's predicting the boycott will be a success,.. I very much hope it fails, and kap's hair catches on fire,.. and this boring, stupid kinda shit never darkens the NFL's doorway again

    thank god for youtube
