I wonder what would happen if a player would hold up a sign supporting NC’s HB2 (bill that states people should use the bathroom matching their birth certificate)?

Don’t think the NFL would be so in favor of “free expression” in that case.

If they are silly enough to allow their players to offend their customers ...

At least 50% of them!

If the NFL allows him to do it, he does.

Turned it off as well. Probably won’t watch again until playoffs unless this crap continues, then maybe not at all.

I guess football can be kind of exciting. There have been a few times (can count on one hand) when I’ve gotten into it for a tiny bit, but I’m glad it’s not and never has been a way of life for me. I see it so much on Facebook with people. They worship their team and the players they treat as if they are gods. With some people, it’s almost a sickness and obsession. I don’t get into any sport, really. I didn’t watch one smidgen of the Olympics. And, to be honest, I don’t like the ghetto/popular culture that seems to infiltrate many American sports. Now the players are all gonna me outspoken activists like Hollywood “stars”! There are players that are exceptions, of course, but on the whole, these millionaire thug idiots don’t interest me. I know everyone’s different, and the die-hards will stick with it no matter what.

The league is already history, trust me. Fewer kids today aren't signing up for county or community football leagues, and that will translate into fewer high school and college football athletes as well. The NFL thinks by siding with the SJWs that they will appease the majority of football players who are black; however it is the white fans and taxpayers who buy the tickets, tailgate, go to the local and chain sport bars, pay for new stadiums, and even join the fantasy leagues that the NFL is profiting on, that gives the NFL their revenue. As the NFL disses the patriotic, military side, so goes these fans.

That's the end goal of the Left. Because the NFL does bring together people and promote civic and national pride, it has to be destroyed.

I used to love all 4 major sports. Now, I do my best to ignore the 2 rap video leagues. Let the NFL destroy itself.

There’s an NFL team called the Panthers? When did that happen?

PUKES!

They need to do what the NHL coach is doing, have the National Anthem ceremony before any player hits the field or bench any who refuse to stand for the entire game.

National Anthem! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdP1CQEboIo

Every one be sure your Flag is up on 9/11! If you serve in the Military also your Service branch flag, the Navy flag will be up with the US Flag at this house, hubby is 20 year career Ret. SCPO!

From what I read, the entire Seattle Seahawks team will be sitting down during the anthem on Sunday.

There’s a story today about Wells Fargo employees creating over 1.5 million accounts and 600K credit card accounts without customers permission so they could charge fees and make incentive bonuses. WF paid $185M in penalties, nobody is going to jail.

The prevailing lawlessness is more of a problem IMHO.

Broncos linebacker Brandon Marshall has joined the ranks of ungrateful SOB’s. Bench him in the locker room for the whole game. Then fine him half a Mil.

I walked away when Roger Goodell defamed Rush Limbaugh while applauding the “minority ownership” status of that “singer” Fergie who peed her pants on stage.

The NFL has gotten to be gutter slugs. Players and owners are basically without scruples, it seems, and I’m disinterested in giving them attention.

If anyone can post “official” NFL sponsors, I’d appreciate. I will gladly boycott.

Missed it, to busy watching Serena get beat. Looks like she had a leg injury from playing last night for so long.

If I were a patriot playing in the NFL, I would also take a knee.

In the press conference, I would explain that players usually take a knee when any player on the field is injured. I would then explain that America is wounded and I am taking a knee for the injured America, divided as she is, not just for a specific group. I’d try to hijack the meaning of this insult so that nobody would know why you were kneeling, then hopefully the whole thing would just go away.
