He said that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, by denying Williamson the right to wear the patriotic footwear, had "committed a personal foul against humanity." I wish he could wear those cleats, but this is idiotic.
The NFL has always ruled with an iron fist when it comes to what players wear on the field, and every player gives up these so-called "rights" whenever they put on an NFL uniform and step on a field.

Let’s see they give Kaepernick a psss on wearing some kind of crazy Leftist socks but this guy can’t wear something to honor our fallen in 9-11.
Is the NFL SMACKED OUT OF THEIR COLLECTIVE HEADS?
As Rush said, we can all just change the channel. The NFL is really turning me off.

Crack down on American patriots.
Traitors get coddled and protected.
Now I know what the NFL really is.

So in the NFL one can be a flag disrespecting boob, but against “code” if players want to honor the fallen of 9/11/2001. Got it.

Let’s see they give Kaepernick a pass on wearing some kind of crazy Leftist socks but this guy can’t wear something to honor our fallen in 9-11. The NFL has no control over what a player wears on a practice field. That's between the player and his team.
The NFL is ruthless and dictatorial when it comes to what a player wears on the field during an NFL game.

Anyone seen a fine / rebuke for Colin Capernicks Pig Socks or would it be a religious affront ( Muslim). To do that. Major Sarc intended
To: Hojczyk
I misread his intention earlier. Good for him.
A pox on the NFL.

So they players can't honor 9-11, but they can kneel and disrespect the National Anthem, flag, and country..
The NFL can get fu**ed.

The pig socks were worn at practice, not the NFL’s territory.

The NFL is crap. Early in the season on 9/11 they are flaunting their hate for America. Players protesting the national anthem, no patriotic displays for 9/11... an two weeks they’ll all be wearing pink.
I’ll just follow Texas Tech and flip a finger to the NFL.

It's unacceptable to me, too. But I don't give a sh!t one way or another because he doesn't work for me, and I don't do business with him or his employer. I would barely consider it newsworthy if the guy showed up for practice stark naked.
I wouldn't even know who this knucklehead Colon Kappernick was, if it weren't for the idiotic way he put himself in the news.

Baloney. Wear something that skewers homos or moslems and see how fast they swing into action.

Bah. They have uniform rules.
They should enforce more of their contract rules.
