I honestly do not like the kneeling, I respect the NFLs "right" , but I know enough of the history here to know that the initial incidents would never have grown to any extent had it not been "promoted", and yet another "fear" created, nor was there not a target on the back of the NFL based on past perceived wrongs. Another "created" situation. And to your "suggestions", DONE. They exist and are mocked. I have read a number of posts attacking any such group |

Yep! And to prove the hypocrisy...where's the outrage for this? Last edited by ColdNoMore; 05-24-2018 at 07:18 PM. |

Who are these people? I know no one who would ever mock the flag. Are these KKK? They are hated by all political groups. The Southern Poverty Center says there are less than eight thousand in the whole country and most people would agree that is eight thousand too many.

I came damn close to throwing something through the screen of our 60" TV when Kaperdumbass pulled his career ending stunt.
I quit watching the NFL then due to the failure of Roger Goodell to put an end to this disrespectful act toward the National Anthem and will not watch them again until this latest ruling by Goodell is strengthened to require all team members to be on the field (don't think this will ever happen so I'll not be watching the NFL anymore).

Also speaking to the suggestion posted to do something...I really believe you should lookmaround at what NFL players do for their local communities as well as setting up foundations, and yet to hear about any of these foundations being phoney or being investigated and found to be phoney.

IT's a Game. Nothing to do with honor or country. IMO they shouldn't be playing the National Anthem at any sports events, THEY ARE NOT HEROs. If the employer wants them to stand, then they stand or find JOB or play time elsewhere. They have the right to push the agenda and the league has the right to set rules! We have NO say so, other than Spend money on NFL or NOT.

I feel that police officers are targeted unfairly and frequently ambushed and killed but I would not protest this by not saluting the flag. I wouldn't blame our country for it. I see it as a societal issue. I see it as a decision made by a human to harm. A choice.

What's really happening here, is a not even a thinly veiled attempt at expressing prejudice/bigotry/racism toward the players...while totally ignoring the REAL reason the protests are necessary in the first place. Decent people shouldn't let the few...try to obscure the root problem. |

It has been suggested that the players, maybe, should not be in this country.
Maybe before deported, the NFL will consult with the union this time. |
