I know the NFL is losing a a lot of viewership, and I know that a bit of it is from people who are deeply offended by the players actions, but I think that a lot of the people not watching don't feel particularly strongly about the Antehm Protest, but are just tired of political BS everwhere they turn. Sports is by and large escapism for viewers, when a football game starts to look and sound like the 24 hour news channel covering politics it gets tiresome.
