The toothpaste is out of the tube...

All they can try to do next is try to change the subject.

This is not about Trump—the NFL has treated their fans/customers like dirt to placate some militant black players.

The NFL made their choice.

Now we get to make ours.

(I really don’t want to help the NFL—but they need a gimmick to change the subject—how about putting nude cheer-leaders on the field at half-time?) :-)

Good video.

You’ll notice the MSM isn’t covering these guys - they are just looking all over the place for people who support the protest and blabbing those clowns far and wide.

Lockhart is working for a community organizer who’s renting the house he owns in D.C.

After renting it to Obama, Lockhart SOLD Obama that home - a home he owned for about 4 years or something, at a cool 3 million dollar profit.

Another smug elitist who hates Americans.

All the swamprats get rich while screwing the American people of all stripes.

Well maybe. Lot of those college kids are there on a football scholarship and would not want to jeopardize it.

The upper executive at the NFL are Ivy League cohorts, and Manhattan socialists. I’ll bet a lot of them haven’t even met a Trump supporter.

Lockhart wimped out because he’s seen the polling... and the backlash.

"I’m afraid all of this is coming to College Football as well."

It's almost certain to happen.

You boys can not CONSULT your way out of this. Only way is to apologize. There is grace in taking responsibility and apologizing.

It will be painful and it must VERY PUBLIC!

After all you shamed us in England! Everyone must apologize. NFL big wigs, team owners who’s team knelt, those who kneeled, and who spoke out in support.

All must apologize to President Trump, military, police and mostly fans.

Apologies won’t be enough.

Goodell resigning would be a good first step, though.

“He’s exercising his freedom to speak,” league spokesman Joe Lockhart said on a conference call with reporters, “and I’m exercising my freedom not to react.”

Translation: their emergency polling and focus groups were an utter debacle, but they're still afraid to call down the radicalized race warriors that they call football players.

Can’t pray in school, or be overt about your religion, but you can protest the national anthem. OK.
