Seahawks' Michael Bennett calls on white players to help with national anthem protests

Go ahead - kill the NFL with your whining and displays of hate.

[Osage Orange]

I take offense by your comment.

I'm part American Indian, and part white ancestry.

Plenty of my ancestry, could farm, have horses, cows...and own their own shops. And I'm pretty damn successful....as my children are too.

I'm quite sure...many black players would be very qualified to do what my family has done.

So don't go saying....these folks have no qualifications...!!

The NFL owners think they can act like college presidents and bow before the ignorant, ungrateful heathens of the Left.

They cannot ... not without losing everything because of the political and social bigotry of their contract employees as well as because of their own deep-seeded cowardice.

You can do it. It takes 2-3'weeks of detox. After that, most people look back and say how did I ever spend precious hours watching the NFL?

Spend time on products, services, and organizations that appreciate your support. The NFL clearly does not want the American man. Let them find markets in the South America and Europe - no USA Anthem in those countries.

Or spend your Sundays going to church and having a nice meal with family afterwards.

[whistleduck]

Yep. Much more satisfying and yields positive results and makes for a more confident and purposeful week.

Abandoned NFL years ago. I saw the light!

[right way right]

The Seahawks are located in Puget Sound where JBLM is.
A huge military family presence is in the area and they are big fans.
Bennett is screwing up.
Hey whiny bitch Bennett, gimmie half your fat contract you landed last year and there may be more equality, then you will stand again. Scum!!
Talent does not equal brains,that is for certain.

Hey Michael, just throw in the towel and call it an end to a career.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

I’m boycotting the games re TV and any sponsor who supports him will lose my business.

Time to put these leftwing dolts back in their parents’ cellar.

[TTFlyer]

Hate the West Coast teams, the Seahawks especially. Hate their players, their coach, their stadium, and their fans.

[mad_as_he$$]

Most thought that the TBI issue would kill the No Fun League. Looks like it will be (reverse) racism and stupidity that does it in.

Football can’t escape the demographic disaster in this country; we import too many soccer and cricket fans now...

This could get ugly, and there will be more and more pressure for players to protest, perhaps we could see black players boycott, if they don’t get white players to join them.

[mewzilla]

Professiona football fans need a new league.

[dfwgator]

Football will never be as good as it was back in the 70s.

[USCG SimTech]

This supernatural thing called “team” that happens is a very fragile existence. 1+1=3. Teaming takes on a power and additional entity on its own and is very difficult to sustain. That’s the job of coaches to uphold that sorcery.

ANYONE or ANYTHING that shatters this very fragile structure must be immediately ejected from the squad.

[dfwgator]

Now you’re talking. Did you see this one.....

Don’t they get it? It isn’t wise to sabotage one’s own career. Pissing off the people who pay money to watch a sport is hurting their own paychecks.

Personally, I hate football, but I know there are thousands of patriotic football lovers who will be disappointed.

pampered, spoiled little ungreats,
F the NFL and their 85 percent black guys.
