And what if the players wish to display their respect for the flag and country? Still not good enough. My boycott will continue.

I’d pretty much give up on the 2018 season. Ticket prices will likely slide down to the $8 level, and parking might end up being free by that point.

Treating the symptoms does not cure the issue. This is like painting a termite infested house.

So basically, the entire teams will diss the USA.

How can these fools not get it? We expect the teams — every member thereof — to show respect for the USA. The country that gave them the opportunity to get millions to play a game.

Q: What’s the difference between the NFL and toast?
A: None.

At this point I see this as their only alternative.

Abject surrender. Why not release any player not properly standing during the Anthem. I thought it was already part of their rules.

It’s funny to see owners, who attend every practice, game and other team function, nevertheless be so out of touch.

The horse has bolted. The social contract has been broken. The cultural tide is going out.

Many have decided - or discovered - that life, or at least weekends, without the NFL as the centerpiece is just fine or even more enjoyable, less stressful, etc.

The owners are attempting to fix yesterday’s problem, probably because they fear the problems of today and tomorrow which are more nebulous and insoluble.

Hey Jerry, sell now. Get out before the freefall.

Very disrespectful to patriotic team members. If anything it should be a choice to go on the field or to stay back and be Marxist $h!t$.

Any displays of unamericanism on the field should be dealt with, with economic punishment.

Keep the players locked in the locker room during the game.

Have the game played with replacement players!

I’ve not watched a game in over a year. It doesn’t matter what the NFL does at this point, I’m done. Goodell is a hardcore leftist nuff said.

Don’t know about you, but not coming out is worse. It’s not only disrespectful, it’s cowardly.

Mine as well. Starve the NFL into non-existence and then maybe the NFL-aspiring black population will start stepping up in school (this all starts in elementary school) and do something productive with their lives.

NFL should drop their red, white & blue logo.

The new NFL logo is red & black for the Communist hammer & sickle. The black player snowflakes will connect with the black color.

And that’s their solution - to make the national anthem only for the stupid, nationalist, racist, pro-Trump fans who don’t understand the plight of these poor, downtrodden, millionaire victims of white privilege? And those same fans won’t notice that the players aren’t on the field and won’t have a problem with it?

God, these owners are painfully stupid.
