Because rebellion runs deep in the ranks of the NFL players, the punishment ought to be stronger.
I propose that for every game a player refuses to stand with his right hand over his heart for the anthem, he must be immediately suspended for two games. No appeals. No pay. Two games.
If he repeats the behavior a second time in a season, he then must be ejected from the NFL.
Part of the cause of the rebellion is that many players are still gang members, because once you are a member of a gang, you are always a member of that gang. And Black Lives Matters has silently become a member of most of the existing gangs. So, many of the players owe allegiance to their gang, including BLM, that supersedes their membership in the NFL.
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.
Geez. Free college w football scholarships, boosters snoozing w free gifts and cash, wild parties, tutors for remedial classes, multimillion dollar contracts along with endorsements, and this is the garbage we get. You just can’t make this stuff up.
