This is the final week of the NFL Season, on December 31st. With the exception of a Jan 1st, 2017 game, Colin Kaepernick has not played a single NFL game in 2017. This is incredibly sad. However, the impact of his absence has been felt not only throughout the league, but throughout America, and even the world. You have boycotted NFL games, resulting in one of the worst TV ratings seasons this league has ever seen. ESPN's "Monday Night Football" games had its WORST season since 2007. NBC's "Sunday Night Football" games had its WORST season since 2008.

To those that say "well, millennials don't watch TV anymore", TV viewership of the five NBA Christmas games ROSE 21% than last year. (source: https://twitter.com/AustinKarp) Many articles (like the one linked below) have listed many reasons why people haven't watched, like Donald Trump, to concussions, "older white fans" who are upset, how people watch TV...but rarely mention Kaep's treatment. We wrote about this in an update last month. The good news is that more people have noticed this "new" reason, but won't give it the credit it deserves. That's fine. THE RATINGS WILL STILL SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. We just want to thank you for your protest, making your voice heard and your DOLLARS matter. In addition, the protest CONTINUES through the NFL PLAYOFFS this year. Let's show the NFL how much we were disgusted by their treatment of Kaepernick by not watching any games this playoffs. No social media comments, don't go to the games, etc. If your team is not in the playoffs, this should be easier for you. For others, let's make an real effort to not watch any games this playoffs. If you've done it for 17 straight weeks, then you can do it during these few playoffs weeks as well! Here's to 2018. #NoKaepernickNoNFL
