I say they should stay in the locker room until AFTER our national anthem. Put a camera in there for those who support this disrespect.

Let’s see how honest the MSM and the NFL are about attendance and viewership this weekend.

I find it hard to believe that any conservative “male” still watches the NFL after all of this.

Knelt for The Star Spangled Banner and stood for God Save the Queen. Not all players on the two teams did that, but a significant number.

This is probably what will happen all around the NFL today. Some folks just can't learn. Hopefully ratings will take a huge dip.

I figured the Baltimoron Ravens would join in this crap, eventually. Bye, Harbaugh & Co., hope your “men” enjoy their circle jerk.

President Trump should tell ICE to prevent these #FakeAmericans from re-entering America at the airport and make them board a plane to the sub-Sahara or the middle east.

The nfl hates you America!

They stood for “God Save the Queen”, but knelt for the US anthem.

And they did this in a foreign country.

I would say, “shame”, but I’m afraid they are too far gone to get the meaning.

A lot of institutions have committed suicide since Trump came on the political scene: Media, ‘Rat Party, the GOP and now, the NFL.
