    They have every right to do their protest thing. And people have every right to boycott them and THEIR SPONSORS.

        The NFL needs to see a few empty stadiums and lose a few sponsors. I aim to do my part.

          If you're living in a place where you sincerely feel oppressed & subjected to discrimination, and just happen to be a multimillionaire with a US passport, what are you waiting around for? The Mother Country is just a 1st Class ticket (or private jet!) away.

              Or folded one, or carried a casket draped by one- and most likely don't know anyone who has.

              Four days from today will be the 12th anniversary of the deaths of five soldiers from my battalion in Iraq. Any one of those five men was worth a million of these dipsh!ts who "take a knee."
              I dream of a better world. One where chickens may cross the road without their motives being questioned.

                  When I dine out, I'm paying for meal service & not for some treatise of Gay or Transgender anatomy, religious or political discourse. Same with sports. I pay to watch the game. In either case, if they stray the boundary & become an annoyance, they get no repeat business from me.

                  NASCAR supports Trump's stance on respecting the USA; NFL doesn't. Guess who I won't be watching anymore nor supporting their advertisers.

                    After today I'll NEVER watch a Pittsburgh Steelers game again. This irked me in a "Hanoi Jane" kind of way. If this trend continues I'll be boycotting the entire NFL which includes not wearing or using any product with any NFL logo, or endorsement.

                    "We don't want to be involved...." is total BS. They chose their side and it isn't the side of Mr & Mrs America.

                        The Dallas ABC affiliate took a telephone poll at last night's ten o'clock news. 36 percent supported the NFL "It's ok to disrespect our Anthem and flag..." thing.

                        64 pct. support President Trump's take!

                          The NFL could have stopped all this - these people are paid to perform. While performing you follow work requirements. So NFL could have said stand during the playing of the anthem or don't suit up. And if you don't suit up without a work acceptable excuse - you're fired.

                          But they didn't - therefore it shows they are just as bad as so many other places - they are letting the inmates run the asylum. They are bowing to the god of politically correct sensitivity.

                          What is nice is seeing them pay the price for it. They are more afraid of their product than their customers.

                            Football players are entertainers. They are no different from ballet dancers or rock singers. An entertainer who insults the fans is an entertainer who will lose money.

                              I'm reminded of the motto of the OFC, reported to have been pronounced by the Duke's dying uncle.
