If you pledge to stop watching the NFL, you should stop watching the NFL. If the NFL adopts policies that one might not be in agreement with, it shouldn't matter because you stopped watching. Seventy percentage of the NFL player are black or other minorities so why shouldn't they have an anthem played before the National anthem? The patriots are only watching their game.
As to the divide, the divide started in the conservative, white community, pushed by Fox News since the mid 2000's and continues today. Just read the threads on this forum. It all about divide.
If The VIllages, as a community, has anything to be embarrassed about (in reference to being embarassed by the recent video), it is these postings that continue here that should be embarrassing. Everyone acts like little kids that aren't getting their way.
In most cases, if our grandkids of the various posters would read what is put on here, they would tell us to knock it off as their generation is more tolerant.
