Fox NFL’s Pam Oliver: Trump’s Comments So ‘Egregious’ That Teams Will Show Unity All Season
Breitbart ^ | September 30, 2017 | Trent Baker

Posted on 10/02/2017 5:40:59 AM PDT by C19fan

In an appearance on Saturday’s “AM Joy” on MSNBC, Fox NFL sideline reporter Pam Oliver weighed in on the national anthem protests around the NFL. She predicted acts of unity, players kneeling before the anthem and locking arms during the anthem for the remainder of the season.

According to Oliver, Trump’s comments about national anthem protesters were so “egregious” they “got under the skin of so many people.”

What is the NFL going to do about Michael Bennett who lied about the Las Vegas police?

What if President Trump made the classical Greek reference to Oedipus Rex the football players themselves are so fond of using to refer to each other?

A “suicide-by-fan-alienation” is a slow and painful suicide indeed. If they keep it up, the certainty of loss of revenue and bankruptcy is very high. The longer this insanity is allowed by the owners, the greater the financial danger. Trump is on the right side of this issue.

And your comments and predictions are so wrong and egregious that anyone who listens to you lacks common sense.

WEEK 4 RESULTS - STANDERS VS KNEELERS

STANDERS - 9
KNEELERS - 4

The NFL Standers came of a great Week 3, where they went 11/1 against the NFL Kneelers, and maintained their winning ways, going 9/4 in Week 4.

Of games where there was a difference in the Anthem Ritual between the two teams, the team with the more traditional and patriotic approach won 9 and lost 4 in Week 4.

The Anthem Rituals were ranked by the following criteria, from patriotic to not patriotic:

1. Traditional Standing
2. Standing with Linked Arms
3. Coordinated Kneeling with Traditional Standing
4. Coordinated Kneeling with Standing with Linked Arms
5. Hid in Locker Room/Tunnel
6. Linked Arm Standing with Some Raised Fists
7. Linked Arm Standing with Some Sitting
8. Linked Arm Standing with Some Kneeling

Surprising wins by Standing Teams: NY Jets over Jacksonville, LA Rams over Dallas and Houston Texans over Tennessee.

I guess the new NFL theme song/dance should be something along the lines of Do the Lemming".....

I know we have some musical talent on FR - anyone care to put something together for publication on YouTube?

Hopefully they’ll enjoy this unity in the unemployment line.

Keep it up.

They are making it too easy to dislike them. It is very easy and I hope that by the end of the season, the NFL and players will be heading for financial collapse.

So she’s confirming that the “protests” are purely political and not about “unity.”

Thanks, Pammy. Where’s my sandwich?

It’s amazing what offends them and what doesn’t. Crapping on the national anthem and the flag. OK. Calling people who do it “sons of bitches” WHOA! Not OK! How many black people have been killed by cops under questionable circumstances? I couldn’t even count it on one hand, yet we’ve had thousands upon thousands of black killed through the years in gang shootings, little kids killed, and not ONE word from any of these SC*MBAGS which is what I prefer to call them.

Of course not, as a majority of these highly-paid snowflakes ARE the culmination of their culture: single-mothers, thug life/b!tches/hos, ‘ghetto lottery’ winners....To call them out if a personal affront.

Quite a few FORMER viewers of NFL won’t see this anyway-—

They are already tuning out.

Empty stands in stadiums will follow.

It's likely that these words were written for her and rehearsed the day before.
