Quick fix for NFL protests
 
QUIT PLAYING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AT FOOTBALL GAMES! That will solve the problem. They do not deserve it played for them. They are ungrateful, spoiled head bangers that do not understand patriotism.

I am not going to watch another game until they discipline these jerks. If the bosses are too scared of them, then get new bosses. I doubt the owners care about anything other than making the President squirm. They do not deserve our money either. You would think that libtards would love to sock it to the rich man.

:wave:You might want to blame the framers of The Constitution for giving these folks the "right!" to protest! It's called the 1st Amendment and according to the SCOTUS, it's legal!!:wave:

That is a pretty stupid comment. You had better think about it. I will not explain it to you, because if you are smart enough to post using a keyboard, surely you can figure out how to get some information on your stupid remark.

Guess what dummy, this site can boot you or me off anytime they wish, for saying what's on our minds. Same thing goes for ignorant head bashers in the NFL when they tick off their owners. And the reason you do not disrespect your country, your flag and your military is because there are very impressionable little children watching and wanting to look up to you as their athlete idols. That's good enough to take your protest off the playing field. Try protesting at the end zone and see what happens to you. A big fat fine.

So, please don't act like this is a Constitutional right. It is NOT.

...and you not watching the football game is going to hurt the NFL in what way? They do not care about you. You are not in the demographic group for any of their products advertised.

The males in the 18 to 45 age group are the targeted demographic for products advertised on NFL games - and these are the majority of those in favor of player protests and anti-Trump.

:agree: it me be a constitutional right but then we get to the pragmatics and these owners, players and sport casters should be asking "why would I want to tick off half my fan base? The NFL is losing viewership and an article in the paper ask why are they not filling up stadiums any longer?

I can answer for others but the disrespect by players plays to me like an Antifa move and that is enough to keep me away.

Lets play your thought out...I take a job at walmart as a greeter and decide to wear a tee short that says Fu(k TRUMP. Are you suggesting my employer should not be able to discipline or fire me because I have the right to free speech?

What job have you ever had that you did not lose some of your rights? I doubt you ever had a job where they said you can drink booze while you work.

Yes, those type of women usually did drink with the customer and get large tips. I've been to a few of those bars overseas, when I was young and single. They also made money in other ways too.
