I agree these players should be punished and if repeating then ejected from the NFL. A CEO lost his job just because he said somebody else said something racial. Insanity!
It is crazy for these way, way overpaid athletes to gripe about this country. They are not heroes, they are men playing a game, entertainers who can be replaced, irrelevant to the welfare of this country.
And many of them are thugs, into drugs, beating up women, and now dissing this country. My family has switched to watching college football. No more NFL.

The owners are SJW wimps—grab the popcorn—it will be fun to watch the league crash and burn.
Boycott—year 2—in this household.

At this point the owners are really the problem, not the players.
The collective bargaining agreement between the NFL and the players limits the owners in terms of how they can punish the players over this nonsense, but there is nothing that prevents a team from benching a protesting player and then cutting him at the end of the season. We have now had two seasons end since this "protest" first started, so any player who is still "protesting" is clearly doing this with the approval of his management.

We really need to start ignoring these people. No airtime, no articles, no tweets. Just ignore them.

I believe Redskin tickets are available this year for the first time - used to only get them through will/trust. Also, there were prices way under a $100.

Goodell is being paid $50 million a year with a free airplane, by the owners...it's the owners who are anti-American flag-burning pieces of $hit.
The players? 99.8% of them know only one thing:
They want to stay in the league as long as they can, so they can live the life (money, wimmen, choice seats at restaurants, etc.)
They think that by kneeling, they'll get on the good side of their bosses in the NFL front offices.

Also, it's no coincidence that the RAiders, one of the biggest kneeling teams in the NFL, had the biggest dropoff from 2016 to 2017, going from 12-4 to 6-10.
Their QB Derek Carr criticized the kneeling one week. The next game, his line (many of whom were kneelers) "let" the defense get to him and injure him.

Marshawn Lynch is one of the “most outspoken players in the NFL?” The who said “I’m jus here so I won’t get fined” 34 times at a press conference?

The raiders should have dumped him last year for lack of production. He did nothing but cost them money. I'm a raider fan from way back in the Stabler, Plunket, Madden and Flores era. The current players are clowns.
