Very sad, but powerful photo.

It should be juxtaposed with every photo showing the cowardly NFL kneelers.

Time to get a new hobby Freepers.

The goodnews is we will have our Sundays back.

F NFL!

They had a chance to fix it and they dubbed down on stupid.

I hope the public gives these wothless thugs the middle finger.

MAKE NO MISTAKE. THE NFL HATES AMERICA.

GFNFL!

No they dont outright hate America.

They think that they are being clever ... and have some genius compromise that fools people that care.

And more than honesty - no matter how annoyed i am by people’s thoughts/convictions, i am PISSED that they are trying to pull one over on me.

I haven’t watched a Super Bowl since the early 1990s. There are plenty of options.

Capitulating so soon?

Capitulating to WHAT?

Taking a group knee—but not during the national anthem—is absolutely meaningless social masturbation.

I won't be watching the NFL at all this year—because of those who are taking a knee during the anthem, and because of the cowardly coaches, owners, and league management who permit such antics without disciplining anyone.

That's not capitulation. I've already written off the NFL before the Cowboys' null action, because of its collective and delusional political correctness.

I'm simply not going to be manipulated into getting worked up about a meaningless display which showed neither respect nor disrespect. It was just some kind of "feel good" silliness on the part of the Cowboys.

The NFL is dead to me, and I hope that millions of other fans around the country agree with me and boycott the league and its sponsors.

The NFL has jumped the shark with a growing number of Americans...

“Millionaires upset over how bad they have it in life.”

There are millions of Americans that make $30,000 per year that can afford to give ten percent to the Lord.

There are many football players making $2,000,000 per year that absolutely cannot afford to take a ten percent pay cut because of the number of criminal lawyers they have, the number of wives they have, the number of girlfriends and babies, and the number of homes, and the number of $200,000 luxury cars they own.

If conservatives were to boycott the NFL and reduce attendance/viewership even ten percent these players would be begging for forgiveness.

Watching NFL on the electric television in these latitudes is already down 100 percent from two years ago.

Though I have been in Texas for 17 years, sometimes I just can’t get away from my NJ roots:

Yo, Cowboys...phuck all of yous!

[The good news is we will have our Sundays back.]

IMHO, people are better off with their Sundays with Father God and His Son and His Holy Spirit.

Even if they’re watching someone preach the Gospel on TV.

It would be much more beneficial than this kind of liberal garbage. And if that’s the result, even partially, it’s a good thing at least in that area.

IMHO

Grown men walking around in Jerseys pretending they’re in beer commercials. Screaming at the top of their lungs for a bunch of fake heros.... It is retarded. You look at photos of fans in the 60s and 70s. No merchandise, no hats or jerseys. Just people going out to watch a game with the family. Not an obsession...didn’t replace church. I can’t believe how far this crap came. Sad.

I prefer UEFA Champions League Final to the Super Bowl, anyway.

Lombardi would be called a white racist in today’s America.

Lombardi doesn’t have a place in America.

I’ll never watch them again after this stunt. It’s more of the NFL giving America the middle finger. There is nothing national about it.

They just doubled down on stupid Globalist Anti-American crap.

If I go into a place and they have the NFL on. I am going to ask them to change the channel or I will leave.

BTW, do you remember the Rangers-Flyers preseason hockey game after the 2001 attacks when President Bush spoke?

We’ve come a long way baby.
