This is preposterous. It has nothing to do with race. It has to do with patriotism and lack thereof on the part of some sports figures. If they don't like it here, they should move to N. Korea or Cuba or wherever.

Trump has built a wall and the traitorous “sports” leagues are on the wrong side of it.

Aaron Blake is a white liberal and doing what those people do best. He’s trying to exacerbate racial tensions by making this a white/black conflict. White liberals do this all the time to reap the political benefit.

There are tens of millions of ordinary, hard working, patriotic Americans shocked and appalled by how our flag and the values of our Republic have been treated with such disdain over the past half-century.

Since Reagan, there has been no politician of either public with the guts and patriotism to stand up and defend the patriotic silent majority. That is, until Donald J. Trump entered the arena.

Trump is speaking the common sense patriotism of our forefathers

Culture war is a good term for this. You define a country as a place with borders, language and culture. I don’t care what color you are as long as you act like an American. Disrespecting America while claiming to be an American makes you a hypocrite.

And the entire situation seems to be reaching a tipping point.

And that tipping point is going to be attendance and revenue for the NFL and the NBA. MLB too, if they choose to get into politics as well. The main fan base for the NFL is white and middle-aged. A lot of them are Trump voters. It's one thing to let one or two players disrespect the flag during the national anthem - it's another to get involved so completely in a culture war against the president and conservatives.

Late night television is now a mindless echo chamber of left-wing propaganda, with viewership way down. Pro sports are clearly heading the same way.

It only took four sentences for this guy to lie about Trump. He did NOT disinvite the Golden State Warriors.

You never heard President Trump utter one peep about race, but this has everything to do with race only because the orcs in the NFL uniforms who refuse to stand for the national anthem have said so.

Who are really the racists here?

Do these spoiled brats ever kneel in memory of the kids killed by gang bangers in Chicago or Baltimore? A heck of lot of deaths happen that way, than from the police trying responding to calls for help from the community.

According to the message I get trying to tune into a game today, NFL has blocked its games from mobile devices. NFL is a selfish business enterprise, not a fan-oriented sport. At least I can listen to college football on my iphone on Saturdays, and spend Sundays listening to music.
