They can’t, they forgot his zip ode, his email address and his Direct phone number.

He urged the NFL to create a rule to prevent players from taking a knee during the anthem.

There is a rule in place its called a pay check - at work you work as you boss wishes, off hours protest all you want.

He urged the NFL to create a rule to prevent players from taking a knee during the anthem.

“The only way out for them is to set a rule that you can’t kneel during our National Anthem!” Trump tweeted Monday.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The NFL does have a rule in place that “ players are to stand up straight, helmet in left hand, facing the direction of the flag whilevthe national anthem is played”

the problem is roger goodell has chosen not to enforce it since last season.

Bannon was on a roll last night! Love this guy! He needs to be elected. He may be a clean version of Chris Christie.

Thinden, are you sure of that?

I saw the claim earlier on the forum, and then couldn't find it myself in the online rule-book.

I remain unconvinced that's a legitimate rule at this point.

If you could provide a solid source, I'd like to have it handy.

Thanks.

I saw stuart varney grill a former KC NFL player over this very subject.

Varney outlined the rule & guest acknowleged it was in fact an Nf
FL rule.

Sorry. Can’t remember KC kickers name.

Thanks Thinden.

There may be different types of lists of rules, and perhaps I wasn’t accessing the right one.

If the NFL thugs and owners don’t like the national law re respect to our flag and national anthem. They should get it changed, like those, who don’t like our immigration laws should do instead of breaking the laws.

Yes there are laws/rules re how to behave when our National Anthem is being played.

Taking a knee to thank God isn’t allowed. Ask Tebow.
