Americans have gone from viewing the sports industry positively, on balance, to negatively in the wake of sports leagues embracing the divisive Black Lives Matter movement, a new survey found.

According to a Gallup survey conducted Jul 30-Aug 12, 2020, only 30% of Americans view the industry positively versus 40% who view it negatively, giving the industry an overall rating of -10.

In Aug 2019, the industry's overall rating was +20, with 45% viewing it positively and 25% negatively. There has been a -30 shift in just one year.

All these stadiums and ballparks were paid for by taxpayers, not owners or players.  I say shut them down and end pro sports.  I vote tear them down.

I consider BLM a terrorist group, and I am highly insulted to be affronted by pro sports players and owners subjecting the American population to their beliefs.

I have PERMANENTLY decided to boycott the NFL, MLB, NBA, and the whole bloody lot of them and companies supporting this treason.  I just do not care what any of them think in regard to politics.  If they want to influence politics, run for office.  When I watch football, it is to watch football.  I do not care one grain of sand's worth in regard to their political beliefs.  Plus, people making multiple millions per year have nothing I care to hear about complaints of inequality.  Nonsense!
