I too am an owner, going to tomorrow’s game. Mr. WWWF and I are furious at CEO Mark Murphy and his arrogant statement.

Let’s remember Vince Lombardi and how he probably would agree with Trump. Can you imagine VINCE putting up with this nonsense of kneeling, disrespecting our great nation, our flag and anthem? You’re fired isn’t the only thing he’d say to his disrespectful players.

Let me remind Mark Murphy WE OWN THE PACKERS team, NOT him. He does NOT speak for me and any of the stockholders we know. Mark Murphy also works FOR US the stockholders.

I’m taking some small flags (no sticks) along and will wave them high and mighty during the national anthem. Mr. WWWF will be saluting as former military. How DARE Goodell, Murphy, Kappersnickerdoodle and all the other overpaid punks bring politics into the NFL games. It’s a GAME. Protest on your own dime.

Packer players........ you work for US, the stockholders - so stand up and be respectful during your work hours, on the job.

Protest on your own time.

I approve this message.

Anyone’s “product” is marginalized when they don’t understand what their “product” is in the first place. NBA hot on the heels of the NFL too. I heard MLB had their first protester today. I guess form a line...

Nothing like having a bunch of millionaires living lifestyles most people only dream of lecturing me about how they can’t make it in America because I’m racist.

If Robert Kraft is smart - and he is - he’ll start looking for a buyer.

Rush is lucky he never bought into a team.

The Packers do not have one owner. The Packers are owned by stockholders, and will not ever leave Green Bay. Mark Murphy should resign. He does not speak for me. Maybe next time he should ask the OWNERS before he opens his big mouth.

These owners and players that disrespect our flag, anthem, etc. are not counting on We The People who are fed up, sick to death of being called every name in the book for being conservative, for voting for Trump, for being patriotic, Christian and toting guns. Flyover country pride.

Proud Packer Fan... Proud Packer Stockholder. We’ll see what happens at tomorrow’s game. sigh.

It’s astonishing to have the President of the United States...stand up there and publicly castigate an entire industry...I don’t think I could even imagine such a thing as recently as a few years ago.

Are you serious? Are you unable to go back in history to just the previous administration and remember Obama's gutting of the coal industry, and his refusal to allow a much-needed pipeline to be built? Going further back, how about Eisenhower's famous condemnation of the "military-industrial complex?" Presidents have fairly routinely slammed industries with which they have issues. The banking sector, energy sector, auto and medical insurance, tobacco and more have been excoriated by presidents and members of Congress throughout our history.

Response to Maxwell. Won’t post graphic — just the link because of language.

Yup. Would be good to know which owners and teams are disgracing our Heritage and Those that sacrificed everything to preserve it.
