Look there has been a long list of grievances black football fans have had to endure from the NFL. Outright banning, unofficially, blacks from the quarterback position. Claiming blacks aren't smart enough to be QBs, to today claiming blacks might be too smart to be QBs. The way they black list black players like Ray Rice and protect their own like Josh Brown. They way they report and vilify Ray Lewis for deer antler spray that was nothing but bogus psudeo medicine, yet systematically protect Peyton Manning when he has HGH shipped to him home. We can go into the way they lockout black coaches yet protect the same carousel of white good ol boy coaches like Rex Ryan, Jeff Fisher, and etc.
We all know the organization is racist in practice, but when they attack a black man for protesting the police shooting of unarmed black americans, I'd say enough is enough. They've moved beyond just having a racist entertainment organization to supporting a racist government policy, using their organization to black ball a black man who simply stood up in protest against it. I'd say its the straw that broke the camel's back for me. To be honest there is enough the NFL has done in previous years that should have generated a want to boycott, but instead of dwelling on missed opportunities in the past, lets do something about what they are doing today.
Can we get some folks in this thread, to put our names to it and agree to boycott the NFL, NFL products, and put our money and time where our mouth is. Doesn't have to be the world, doesn't have to be far sweeping, just has to be those of us who want to show our displeasure and put actions behind it. If you can lets spread the word to other sites, to other black men and women who are NFL fans and to those that aren't. White made it known they would not tolerate Colin's stand, lets show with our actions that we will no longer support a product that doesn't value our lives.

Let us boycott the NFL this year.
It all starts with one, I"m boycotting who wants to join me?
