Phil vs Carolina National Anthem a No-Show
Our media has chosen to suppress our ability to even watch the National Anthem tonight (Thu Night FB) by heading to a commercial just prior and returning to air for kick-off. Thought I would tune in for a few minutes to see what what would happen but the powers to be at CBS and the NFL decided not to air the anthem, mistakenly believing this would help deflate this controversy, by not allowing viewers to decide on their own. Just adding more fuel to the fire. Tuned out at kick-off!

Good for you! I stand and hold my hand over my heart. We are so blessed to be in this wonderful country. Thank you. I am boycotting the NFL entirely. I found out I don’t miss it. I am really enjoying College Football. I have always been a college fan, but much more now. At least they have the co7rage to enforce school and team rules. Let the felons have Sunday.

The major networks have always gone to commercial during the national anthem at football. It's only recently that they started showing it because of the protest.

The national anthem has always been sacrosanct and a time of reflection for the men and women who gave blood and treasure to preserve our way of life.
For any television station to place profit over this important reflection speaks for itself. American sports, specifically the NFL and NBA no longer hold to their original intent and like Hollywood the under belly is something we ll rather not think about. P. Ditty of infamous fame suggests that black and white athletes compete in leagues of their own . That indeed is very telling in itself as to where many of the black community are on this issue, especially when one connects the. fact that blacks at universities demand separate dorms from whites. This thinking is very dangerous and can flip on a dime and those feeding it must be stopped. Personal Best Regards: |

I don't support any sport ending with the word ball
Unless it's college' minor league ,little league ect ect I only support and watch only golf, tennis,horseshoes bowling and few others These folks have to earn the're money earn the're ranking week after week year after year or go home... No pot of cash waiting if they loose . In the majors few fumbles few missed fly balls few missed 3 pointers you're still a millionair. Miss a few putts,couple of gutter balls.couple of balls outta bounds then see who gets paid. Yes some have large endorsements ..They earned it It's not handed to them Un like these contract millionaires who now think their C.R.A.P don't stink after college have major league teams sign them up in the name Profit Sad it's no longer about the sport it's Money Money Money

The media is not managing anything and the only reason that it is on big games like championships is because the league invites big names to sing or play and they want the attention. Fact is, there have been a number of movements to stop playing the national anthem at sporting events (begun during the war) and which I would oppose. But thanks again to CFRANCE for pointing out facts, instead of simply made up things
