Now I know what the NFL really is.
I loves me a story what gots a happy ending!
EXCELLENT news.
Teams can't fire the players but sponsors have NO such responsibility. THAT will hurt those players in their most TENDER spot: their pocketbook.
If he doesn't know to stand at our anthem then he is un-American.
In fact, I ALWAYS stand at every country's anthem if I am present at the event. It's just a show of respect.
It gives me great pleasure to see these folks that hate our nation lose some of the perks of living in it.
There was no need to add that remark.
Great news!
Little SJW Snoflake. I’m very excited to be participating in my first day of #BoycottNFL - Get a list of NFL sponsors and BOYCOTT them as well.
They have a contact area and a telephone number to thank them for doing the right thing.
Take away the money.
That will get their attention.
They have the right to protest, and so do we.
Good.
I don't know why this is so difficult.
That brought an immediate smile to my lips.
Perhaps it is time to bring back the AMERICAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE! Remember them?
The Air Force Federal Credit union chooses some stupid NFL player to represent it? Any not some Air Force Academy grad hero like Chesley Sullenberger??
So what did he lose? Free Checking? While I applaud the stand the Credit Union took, let me know when Nike, Adidas, or Under Armor start taking a similar stand like the CU.
I turned off the TV and did not watch the game. Players want to be disrespectful to the symbol of this Nation, then I won’t watch the league games that support this BS. The NFC has just about “Left” my household with the liberal 49’ers, now Denver and any other team that sanctions this behavior. If a Bengals players joins this protest, that it for me and NFL until next year.
Let’s see...A few NFL players are protesting because a very few police officers may have acted very badly when the vast majority of police officers act just fine.
And now a few football fans are boycotting because a very few football players are protesting when the vast majority of players are acting just fine.
Alrighty then.
Contrary to what you hear, NFL employees on the playing field, are NOT heros!
Yes, they face some adversity, for money.
Yes, there might be a gaggle of hostile linemen looking to do damage, for pay.
The grunt in the firefight for his life is not there for the money.
The Fireman running into a burning building is not looking for a performance bonus.
I do recall one game, Detroit-Chicago forty years back, there was a KIA!
They said it was a preexisting condition, could happened any time.
One time in many years!
Sadly I see more in the news of our Police and Military most days.
Paid Hessians and paid to be good citizens, may not work out so well.
