What player will decide their principals (to kneel) are more important than playing in the game?

First of all, almost all reasonable people think that this is a severe case of narcissistic, if not simplistic empty headed imitation by most players.

Secondly, these are highly paid entertainers not hired as crusaders for any cause. For the most part all of them have had a silver spoon in their mouths since junior high school.

Third, there is no "first amendment" issue with suppression their disrespectful behavior. They are private employees of a team franchise not some royal figurehead for a national culture

Other than that....they are spoiled self indulgent and pampered millionaires trying to cash in on others misfortune, ignorance or subversive intentions.

Who cares? If the fans are so disgusted they don’t enjoy it anymore, then they could have dancing bears and no one will watch.

We’ve seen what’s behind the curtain and we don’t want any part of it.

NFL Owners to Discuss Policy on Standing for Anthem

Roger Goodell will be fired by the NFL owners if they have a brain.

Part 1 of any effective strategy: Fire Goodell.

Don’t change the rules. This former fan would prefer to see them show us what they REALLY think about this country.

Yep - feeling the heat in the money pot and trying to keep it from bursting into flame.....I’d wager none of the players have the “principles” to actually quit and those who retaliate by not playing at full potential will be weeded out by their own teammates...
