Here’s a hint for minorities; STOP BREAKING THE LAW JACKASS!
The NFL really has a death wish.
If the NFL were at all smart, they would just say: “This is over. We’re done. Five game suspension for any player who disrespects the national anthem. Take it up with your coach. If the team has a problem enforcing this, that’s $10M fine, right there. We’re done with this.”
So Bennet was inconvenienced for ten minutes and that is why he’s having a hissy fit?
After an amazing Superbowl, with an improbable win, I was looking forward to an awesome season of entertainment.
If I want to watch paid protesters I can go to Berkeley...
If I want to watch overpaid protesters I can tune in the NFL.
Which teams. I need to know if I should bring tomatoes to the next press meeting.
the nfl jumped the shark years ago. this is just the latest chapter. soon, it won’t be distinguishable from professional wrestling.
The Not For Long was not on in my house today.
Seahawks, Chiefs, so far...
The NFL needs to make all players watch the Smithsonian channel 911 documentary. It makes you so mad that these spoiled brat players can act like that after watching the whole day in intimate detail via this documentary. It’s an excellent documentary. Highly recommend.
If the NFL wonders why it’s losing viewers and attendance...look no further than it’s players offending and disrespecting over half it’s fans......or should I say former fans
I’ll stick to NASCAR where they say a prayer and sing the National Anthem before each race
End of my rant
I do not understand how the NFL can allow the players to “protest” on company time, while in uniform.
If the players wish to protest, they should do it on their own private time, when they are not “working”, otherwise they represent the team during game time.
People who actually work for a living would not be able to get away with this farce.
Ah... um... is it... is it... ah... is it ok for me to question their patriotism now?
When 72% of NFL players are black.
2. Hundreds of players are drafted every season, with about half of those drafted black men.
3. The NFL causes hundreds to thousands of other black men to be hired in other secondary organizations, such as the media, with at least a middle class salary, all the way to multi -million dollar contracts for prime jobs.
4. The NFL is the pinnacle of an entire sport where hundreds of thousands of young men learn discipline, delayed gratification, and go through the school system in order to achieve their dreams, even if they don't make it to the NFL.
5. The integration of baseball, the military, and football played a critical role in the last century, allowing contact between races and watching black men striving to achieve on an equal paying field.
Conclusion: Obviously, the NFL must be destroyed by petty politics.
Winning races in high-performance machines requires a lot more brains than football.
