The whole concept of randomly differing color painted seats to give the camera impression of the seats being filled was created by none other than the Louisiana Super Dome. That was told to us by the bus driver when we were driven into the dome for a private party during an industrial controls convention several years ago.
In solidarity to WHAT? Maybe the fact that someone did a crappy job of explaining why they all had to kneel ( tribute to Tim Tebow? I’m not a football fan, but I know that Tebow was done by 30 in the NFL, no doubt due to the controversy of him taking a knee. ) And now this Colin Kperwhatever...he started this last year ( anyone know why) and HE didn’t get picked up by any team... so is the entire NFL (going crazy) kneeling to protest the fact that Colin doesn’t have a job cos he’s black cos the whole NFL is so racist? This would be all the teams, including the ones who wouldn’t give Colin a job?

Virtuous Drew Brees, what a guy!
I used to really like that guy.
Who’s Drew Breed?
That’s disgusting.
Bingo. Imagine how this lot would behave on the battlefield.
Expensive JEWELRY. Check!
Expensive SHOES. Check!
Excessive WHINING. Check! Total, all-out EMASCULATION. Check!
I will cut in my saint’s jersey, and send it to the team with a note telling them where to shove it.
Dixie Chicks.
And, as they pass through UK border control at Heathrow, may they each learn their passport has been invalidated. And appeals take two years.
When I heard “the message has been lost” as a reason to stop doing it, I thought, “what message?”.
Hands up, don’t shoot?
Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon?
What do we want? dead cops, when do we want them? now!
There’s no statistic they can cite that indicates that WHITE cops just go out to HUNT blacks. None. Zero. Zilch. Yet black on black crime is through the roof.
It all to disrespect the flag, anthem, and country - all because the media has them believing a lie. Then when President Trump called them (ANY football player, regardless of race) out, it became an anti-Trump sentiment too. You know, that guy that just won the Presidency. Real smart, morons.
Now they’re seeing ticket sales plummet they’re realizing they really miscalculated. They HAD no message, this is all media hatred, pure bigotry. The communists are in the media and AntiFa (which is why they don’t call them out), they hate this country and want to divide it. Ironic as communism requires fascism to survive. For real patriots though, this didn’t divide, it united them. Now they need to save face but are too arrogant to just quit completely.
Bye bye NFL.
“In solidarity of what exactly?”
From reading what one player said, I gather it’s solidarity for ‘change’ - the definition being whatever they say it is from here on out if we fall for it.
IOW, ‘change’ will change as they see fit.
Just go back to locking arms in the shower but don’t bring your support for BLM onto the football field.
Hope this stops soon.
And, the boycott continues.
They are essentially down on their knees worshiping the Leftist gods Soros and the DNC.
What pathetic losers,... can’t even figure out that what they are supposedly protesting, is pure fictional vaporwear.
“a way to show respect to all.”
Keeping digging, idiots, you’re getting warmer, I promise.
Two years ago, nobody was kneeling. Good luck trying to convince salt of the earth football fans that something has happened in America over the past two years that warrants this crap.
At least the NBA Commish has come out and said he expects all his thugs...er,...players, are expected to stand for the National Anthem. Don’t get me wrong; I got no use for the NBA. But I will give credit when due.
