People go to sporting events for entertainment and to get away from the drudgery of their lives.

***************

Good comments overall, but particularly this one.

People used to look forward to a few hours of relaxation and got their minds off of work and other problems by focusing on the contest, the skills of the players, and perhaps most importantly, the pleasure of being a couch coach. I mean, who didn’t enjoy second guessing every play and key moments in the game?

But now, the escapism once offered by the sport is gone. Its become politicized, like everything else.

And now I see some former black democRAT congress critter, Donna Edwards from Maryland, has suggested ALL NFL players take a knee during the National Anthem before the game to protest Trump's comments.

If that happens, then I hope ALL fans will then leave the stadium.

The NFL and their players need their fans for support, not the other way around. Tickets should go unused on game days. TVs should be turned off during the games. Advertisers should be boycotted.

It wouldn't take long before Goodall and the NFL and their thuggish, criminal-type players will see that Kapershit is the problem, not Trump and the fans.
