Washington Post ^ | January 24, 2018 | Mark Maske

The NFL and its players moved forward Tuesday with their plans to work together on community activism, announcing the members of a joint committee of owners and players and launching a promotional campaign to accompany the two sides’ social justice initiatives.

“This is just the beginning,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a conference call with reporters. “We’re just getting started with this effort.”

Goodell is insane.

Wonder if his wife, former Fox News cookie baker, Jane Skinner, was a closet lefty the entire time she was at Fox.

No one here now has an excuse next season.

You pay for a ticket, or turn on the TV, then you endorse this.

I had long believed that pro football players were simply forgettable louts and never bothered with either the game nor the NFL. Since the NFL kneeling fiasco I have added to that belief that they are stupid, ungrateful a$$holes who need a few years on the unemployment line to get straightened-out. What losers.

LOL, Here we see the final demise of the NFL. A group of predominantly low IQ entertainers who believe that their enormous paychecks somehow increases their intelligence and relevance. Everyday Americans will loose their interest even faster now.

The NFL is only down 8-10% they figure they can make that up with snowflakes and with this SJW crap they might. When the re signed that a-hole Goodell they flipped us off.

Screw these ghetto cretins. They live in the lap of luxury, paid like Hollywood Stars and kick dirt in the face of the country and fans who make them rich.

I hope Goodell gets sued for destroying this sport and league by his mismanagement.

The players are doing what the owners want them to do. The protests could and should have been stopped 2 years ago. The entire NFL is lost. The NFL praises the thug and refuses to show respect for the country, its flag or National Anthem. That is as Anti-American as you can get.

The NFL can wither and die.

NFL figures Hell is deep underground. NFL will dig its way down there pretty soon at this rate. Then congress can - 1. Stop all tax sudsudies, deductions. 2. End nfl’s exemption from antitrust laws. 3. ?
