First Sponsor Pulls Ad Dollars From The NFL

It begins. We suspect NFL owners, and their media lapdogs, may be about to start paying attention to what President Trump (and the fans of the game) are saying (and doing).



First, Bloomberg reported overnight that fans who agree with Trump shared lists of advertisers on social media networks while calling for boycotts along with hashtags like #PunchThemInTheWallet.

Richard Levick, a crisis communications expert, says the NFL deftly navigated the weekend’s challenges but expects no shortage of hazards ahead.

“They showed a high level of unity and independence, respecting those who participated in the protests and those who didn’t,” says Levick.

“In this era of hyper politicization -- which is being driven by the White House into everything from the Boy Scouts to the NFL -- there is no safe middle of the road.”

But now, following President Trump's warning yesterday that...

"I think The NFL is in a box, the only thing that is doing well for The NFL is the pre-game...

They can’t have people disrespecting the national anthem. The NFL has to change or their business is going to go to hell."

At least on major company has pulled his company's advertising and sponsorship money. As The Times Free Press reports, two years ago, Cleveland businessman Allan Jones was proudly showing off his newly acquired Hardwick Clothing-brand suits by providing the wardrobe for NBC's on-air talent during the network's broadcasts of NFL football games.



But after NFL players and coaches challenged President Donald Trump and many took a knee during the national anthem played before their games over the weekend, Jones said he is through sponsoring the wardrobes or advertising on stations that air the National Football League.

"Our companies will not condone unpatriotic behavior!" said Jones, CEO of the payday lending chain Check Into Cash and owner of Hardwick Clothes - America's oldest suit maker.

"For the 29 states we operate in, this isn't much to them, but it's a lot to us. The Tombras Group is our ad agency in Knoxville and our national media buyer for both TV and radio (for Check Into Cash) and don't look for Hardwick on the NFL either."

Jones, a strong supporter of Trump, directed his media buyer, the Tombras Group in Knoxville, to remove any commercials for Check Into Cash, Buy Here Pay here USA, or U.S. Money Stores from airing during NFL games "for the entire season."

You guys are absolutely amazing.

As part of defending the police's actions that they are not singling out Blacks, you state that the Police kill Whites too. Now to attack my point about Iceland, you state that Iceland has very few Blacks.

Let me repeat this one more time for you. Iceland has had ONE... ONE... ONLY ONE person killed in their HISTORY by police there. In the U.S. 890 have been killed by police in the United States so far in 2017.

There is a problem.

This just proves that the fewer blacks the fewer justified killings of blacks by cops.

No, it doesn't. It proves that cops in the United States haven't been trained well enough to use other ways to solve situations other than just shooting and killing someone.

Maybe it's the blacks who need to be trained in how to conduct themselves in a manner that they won't need to be shot by cops. White guys have figured it out, why can't black guys?

They have? You do understand that by pure numbers more Whites killed get killed by cops per year? It's more by Blacks when you take into account the number killed per the percentage they represent of the total population...

I swore an oath to the Constitution, not the flag or the anthem.

So what? Standing to attention during the raising of the flag is a sign of respect, which you apparently lack.

The flag is a piece of cloth. You are in-American you Nazi. The Constitution is what makes America great. You lack any knowledge of what makes this country great.

 

[bodecea]

My son and I went over all the things I'd have to boycott to carry this through, and it really is impossible to do. I would literally have to give up on brushing my teeth, shaving my face, using underarm deodorant, drinking Coke and Pepsi, eating at many restaurants and fast food establishments, buying at least half of what I buy at the grocery store. I will have to focus on NFL itself, just stop watching games. Problem is, I don't watch NFL games except for the Superbowl. It's a quandry!!!

Geesh! Fake Patriotism is SO HARD!!!!!

Yes... it does. It goes to show that our system tends to use deadly force, and in fact relies on it more than it needs to.

No dumbass. What is so hard to understand? One person killed in the entire HISTORY of Iceland, 890 people killed in just this part of 2017 ALONE in the United States.

Iceland has been a Republic since 1944. 73 years and ONE person killed by the police there.

890 killed by police so far in 2017.
1093 killed by police in the U.S. in 2016.
1146 killed by police in the U.S. in 2015.

3129 people killed by police in the U.S. in the last three years. ONE person killed by police in Iceland in 73 years. This is not a Black problem, this is a police problem.

almost all of those were self defense
they are criminals attacking/threatening police--the police do not have a right to self defense?? yes or no?
out of over 30 MILLION calls for assistance--not counting traffic stops--about 950 deaths by police IN SELF DEFENSE
I'd say the police are trying their best NOT to shoot ...I'd say that's fantastic and the blacks are the problem
the cops just don;t go out and pick blacks to kill---they are usually called on some problem

Your ignorant comments about crime based on race astound me. Your attitude is part of the problem.

the truth hurts--doesn't it?
facts hurt
I give you facts, you reply with hate ---who is the ignorant, racist, hateful one?
remember, no hate in my posts--just facts

Wouldn't it be a small sacrifice to cut out as many NFL supporters as you can, your sacrifice will be small compared to the people that risked their life for us.
Disrespect for our flag will not be tolerated.
Does it look like their protests are working out for them?
