Hmmm. Maybe we should call the Left’s bluff here, it is certainly more “Christian” than the current National Anthem.

I pray I never run a business where the employees have so much power over what I do or say. I guess if there are Italian players, perhaps they should play Arivaderci Roma; German: "Das Lied der Deutschen; Polish: Mazurek Dąbrowskiego; on and on.

Anti-American nonsense. Hope conservatives actually boycott it this time.

A lot more will boycott it this time. Enough is enough, but this is TOO MUCH !

All I wanted to do was go to watch football, and a social justice rally broke out.

BTW, why hasn’t Kaepernick taken over Goodell’s job yet?

Goodell needs to resign. He’s a virtue-signalling fraud anyway.

The NFL needs to have a true believer and a true revolutionary as its head, like Kaepernick.

That's for the kickers.

The NFL used to gear up to play football. Now its kneeling to social justice hoaxes. They can go their way, I will mine.

I didn’t know there was a Black National Anthem. Didn’t know about Juneteeth until last week. I’m just not woke. Wonder what’ next?

See post 54 above to see "what's next".

I’ll never witness it. The only football I have seen since 2016 is replays (highlites) on Youtube.

I have no problem with the lyrics, which are affirming of God, liberty and the nation. But perhaps they would ask white folks to remain seated at the risk of cultural appropriation.

We quit watching when they started taking a knee.

We did cheat and go to a superbowl party and watch the Chiefs win!! Still love Mahomes but NFL has got to go. We will not be watching, same as last year and the year before (unless Chiefs go to the Superbowl again) :)

Dark and lonely on the summer night.
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Watchdog barking - Do he bite?
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Slip in his window,
Break his neck!
Then his house
I start to wreck!
Got no reason —
What the heck!
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
C-I-L-L ...
My land - lord ...
