It will be interesting to see how the “North Carolina Pantsuits” react to the “New England Patriots-when-it’s-Convenient” improved behavior (if in fact they do what they say they’re going to do).
At Attention with hands over heart or that linked arms BS ?
This is an interesting dynamic we’re witnessing here. The NFL and its teams are alarmed not only because they fear an organized “boycott” of some kind, but because there’s a good chance that a fan who even misses just one Sunday’s worth of games going to be a lost customer forever. Once that fan finds something else to do for even just ONE Sunday, they will see the NFL for the silly waste of time that it has become.
These players are trying to save their own asses because they looked like utter BUFFOONS..but the damage is done..and we all know they are a bunch of America hating ass clowns..the images we saw, they can’t take that back, EVER
Good news on these football protests.
Now if they would ah.. ahem... bend over and maybe stretch a few times during the game : )
Lingerie Football League announced this week its belief that America’s flag and national anthem are “far too sacred” to protest.

Not sure I agree with the naysayers here. Isn’t this a win? As long as they stop dissing the national anthem and flag, aren’t we good? I say this as someone who does not watch the NFL.
The Pats and the NFL can go FOAD.
Imo, it ain’t over until Goodell and every member of the NFL executive ranks are forced out of the organization.
This is not something that should be allowed to be ‘walked back’. They showed their true selves. Anything short of a purge of the leadership of the NFL is just a temporary appeasement.
They can do whatever the hell they want, I won’t be watching.
I told several sponsors I am boycotting them until they pull their ads from the New England Quisling games.
Kraft and the players who kneeled have spoken.
Now the advertisers need to speak.
Lock arms with that!
That’s what I’m wondering.
sorry linking arms doesnt cut it.you stand at attention with your hand on your heart
Every step they walk back just encourages us to work harder to get Goodell fired.
We are getting there—three yards and a cloud of dust each play.
We will score.
It’s over. The Cowboy/Cardinal game was the last game for this. Now the narrative will be everyone standing at attention is unity to support diversity.
this will haunt this league forever..cant believe they were this stupid....comes from arrogance...they thought they were too big to fail. We shall see..
They can do whatever they want, I won’t watch.
No do-overs or mulligans for TREASON.
Too little. Too late.
“Isn’t this a win? As long as they stop dissing the national anthem and flag, aren’t we good?”
No, not really, as it can be spun, and moreover other industries can take comfort in that the boycott-fu of the Right is nothing much to fear beyond a week or two, and they can continue with their old politics.
A destroyed industry, especially such a high-profile one, however, is going to be, always, that corpse hanging over the gate that cannot be ignored.
Trump tweeted that “Standing with locked arms is good,..”
I hope he takes that back.
Right hand over the heart at attention, yes!
