Is this what our brave military men and women risk their lives to defend?

Well yes, actually it is.

We did not do so hoping this would be the "speech" we would hear, but rather for their right to say it no matter what it is.

Holding them accountable for their disrespect is another whole conversation.

I’m so over the whole thing that I’m prepared to start cheering them on to their demise. You go bro, stick it to the man. I know that’s right.

You can watch enough football between Friday and Saturday. I really don’t need it on Sundays and Mondays.

I want the league to suffer. I want it to trickle down to the players. I want to them to lose their asses to where pay goes down to about a regular paying job.

"The NFL is killing itself. Like I care."

And remember the day Limbaugh wanted to own a piece of this dipchittery? Look at how far this has sunk, can you imagine what some owners are thinking as they realize the end is near and babababillions are at stake? The league comes to their senses and stops this nonsense or they all self implode. Anyway to Short ESPN?...

I know and agree. It’s ironic that these protestors are accelerating the demise of the league. So, way to go, bro with the fro.

What I don’t understand are these business owners such as the Murdock kids, NFL owners, stockholders of Apple, Google, Disney, who don’t seem to care that leftists have taken over their business and are systematically destroying their brands and companies! I thought their self-interest would prevent that, but I guess I’m wrong.

>>I wish his sorry ass ancestors hadn’t sold his sorry ass ancestors to be slaves.<<

Sooooo true!!! We have suffered and suffered and suffered as a nation for bringing the slaves in. A curse on all those jackass whites who did this to us. You guys screwed us over BIG TIME!

Bears were so pathetic this weekend, that it will be easy for me to turn them off. Might watch the first half of the Green Bay games as they are usually nip and tuck, but the Ditka Bears are no where to be seen.

I think they’re owned by Disney so you can short that... but they have a pretty rounded offering... TV, Movies (Marvel movies are theirs, Star Wars is theirs), theme parks... but I will say I think they are due a hard down turn.

People I talk to aren’t feeling the need to visit the theme parks as much... course that could be my age/location and not what the numbers show.

Same with the movies and TV from antecdotes...

Research and invest at your own risk :)

Too many people still don’t get the African mentality. They think it is all about color, which is completely irrelevant to their primitive, low IQ, behavior.

He’s a white European who has the sense and decency to be grateful for the sacrifices of white Europeans that engineered and built the civilized world.

I guess these protester/players do not realize their mega- salaries come mostly from TV revenue and will drop significantly when the networks stop paying big bucks as viewership plummets. Getting beat up every weekend for a “measly” $100,000 a season won’t be fun, will it?

The only way their teammates will tolerate it is if they've just done something spectacular, like score a TD or get a sack. Given that my 49ers still haven't scored a TD this season, I don't care if they hold a parade from one end of the field to the other if they can just get in the end zone.

You’re crazy. He’s just as rotten and is lending support to those antics. Btw, you’re starting to sound way too KKK for this forum.
