I think it a basic certainty that the #NFLBoycott by the White Right is having significant impact on the current state of the game and the companies which sponsor it.
But the NFL is trying not to bend to the "SHOOT ALL THE ---------- WHO DISRESPECT OUR TROOPS!" motif (which is what they're really asking for in Trump-murka. Instead, the NFL has proposed a seven-year, nearly $100,000,000 coalition with a player's group for social justice reforms in the United States -- which is what Colin Kaepernick and others were protesting in the first goddamned place!
And one player has already said that's sufficient -- Malcolm Jenkins of Philadelphia will end his protests. We'll see where this goes.
