"Isn’t this like paying gang members not to commit crimes?"

Maybe they should try mid night football to keep em focused.

Our conversations and comments should no longer evolve around “not watching anymore NFL games”. We need to make statements and comments about “What will it take to get me to return to watching and attending NFL games.”

Pay people not to do bad things, and what you will get are more and more new bad things.

Clintoon, Shrub and Odumbo did not have this most basic understanding of human nature in their dealings with North Korea. Fortunately, we have a man as president now.

Is Martha Ford from THE Ford Family?
Henry Ford’s descendants? To someone from that family, a few lousy million is nothing. It like seeing coins roll down the back of your car seat. You may not even bother to pick it up.

“The Detroit Lions’ owner offered players incentive not to kneel for the anthem”

Very weak team owner. Very, very weak.

Billionaire, yes. But weak as dish water. No core values that can be identified other than love of money.

I didn’t watch my Patriots last weekend. That is usually done weekly with friends, who all seemed ok to watch without me. We come from a different place, and different backgrounds. I wonder though, is it doing any good. Is the message really getting across? I’m not going to slip. I like the time I spend with my football buddies, but I love my country more. I’ll hold fast, but I’d certainly like to know we’re doing some good..These thugs need to know that what they’re doing is unacceptable.

Here is your incentive, players: “If you kneel during the National Anthem, or otherwise disrespect the Flag, YOU ARE FIRED!”
