I have heard that the NFL owners are split three ways over the issue.
Some support the players’ protest kneeling.
Some do not support it and are angry that it detracts from the game$.
Some are ambivalent and just want it to go away.
It would not surprise me if they just did away with the anthem totally.......................
Seems to me the media would want this to go away very badly as well. What hurts the NFL hurts them as well. Very surprising it remains in the news cycle. Qui bono?
