It’s funny I thought they’d learned their lesson but was still going to boycott the rest of this season as tough love. Looks like I’ll be boycotting next season too

Now you’re endorsing legislation?!
Jeez, Goodell. You made your bed with the SJWs and now they own you. They say ‘dance’ and you start dancing. That sure was a nice business you had there once.

I guess the NFL hasn’t learned the old saw about not digging.

I have an idea the Roger Goodell would probably like. The NFL teams should hand out literature with voter ballot recommendations to the fans as they come into the tax payer funded stadiums. Also, on one Sunday every year should be “Michael Brown Day” at all NFL games, and a Barrack 0bama’s speech on racism in America should be played on the taxpayer funded jumbo tron. /s

LOL! I guess they are worried about players like Cam Newton, who stole laptops at U of Florida, and former great OJ Simpson - who just got of jail.

Must be working on a Get-of-jail-free card for players.

NFL players, if you want to do politics, get off the football field and go into local politics or do your protesting on your own time, not during game time. Quit football or shut up and play the game.

Goodell is on a roll to put an end to the NFL as we know it.

He should resign or be fired.

I thought the NFL was about football. Looks like the NFL forgot its mission statement.

So suddenly all this anti-American NFL BS is all about criminal sentencing?

This a joke, right?

The NFL debacle had given conservatives a rare opportunity to take a whack at Black Lives Matter and the manipulations of Obama’s collusion with the media. Because if it was this blacks are victims promoted perversion would promote a realistic evaluation dominating black society.

But the so called pundits are blowing it off. In effect diverting the media’s complitity which allowed this racial division diversion created by Obama ro take place.
Obama is still the untouchable and fellow radicals are just laughing at the NFL debacle and praising his political genius because pundits are letting the media divert that direction to “cum bye ja” and a dozen other directions.

Because pundits should be citing the racial division created by Obama and the subsequent racial incidents asking those bended knee players if they support this ?.

The problem here is refusing to connecting the dots to the democrats who created racial divisuon when Obama through the abuse of his office and the “Bully Pulpit” began creating “victims” out of blacks engaged in criminal activities who were not just resisting legal arrest but responding by attacking legal authority and endangering their lives .

Its political purposes was creating racial division and a impeachable proof barrier expanded to include “white guilt”

When blame the cops for cold blooded killings initiated by Obama’s use of the Bully Pulpit. It began with his comments during the Zimmerman trial. Those comments inspired deadly assaults ending in death of any non black who wandered near or in “hoods” controlled by members cf black ganags during that period which went downplayed by the media .

One such noteable case is that of Christopher Lane an Australian murdered by Crypts while visiting Duncan Oklahoma.*(At the time the media avoided any reference made to “For Trayvon” reason given in those murders by the culprits mainly gang members resulting in racially inspired murders)

Obama was never held accountable for his inflamatory remarks. And because he wasn’t he contunued hammering away creating a wider racial division targeting police authority which resulted in cops being targeted and murdered in cold blood.

There were balck voices crying against this. Notably Milwaukee county sheriff David Clarke who was vilified for ddoing so by the media.
