How is the NFL an non profit? That really is tax evasion.

The owners will be kneeling on both knees now, begging for forgiveness.

About damned time! It was one thing when the NFL exhibited the best of America, back in the 50s and 60s, but now, it exhibits what is depraved and immoral in America.

This non profit theocratic gravy train has got to stop. My speech is being taxed so the NfL can “speak up” , or, rather, SPEAK DOWN to me and my country.

Sick of this sht.

Then, America, a country of Huegnots fleeing the Catholics in Europe now see the same goons lording it over it in morality with the tax money of dissidents.

The federal’s hand in religious preference affairs has completly divided this country. It is disgusting, on the level when Christ chastised the Pharisees of hypocrisy for being subsidized by Ceasar as informants with his secured coinage while pretending they were for Israeli independence from Ceasar.

I thought it was Matt Gaetz of Florida that called for it.

If Trump really wanted to make them crap their drawers he would threaten an anti-trust investigation to break up the NFL Monopoly. It would be an open and shut case and the owners know it....

I’m seeing more people out on the roads, in the stores, in the park on Steelers Sunday’s this year. Used to be the world came to a halt when the Steelers played.

I wonder how many knew the NFL was “non-profit” and tax exempt. (I didn’t know that.). When “the rest of us” finally get this “new” message, there will be real outrage. I was upset before, now I’m angry. Trump is like a bright flashlight in the dark...and the roaches are coming into view everywhere!

As a non profit, the executive salaries are excessive.

I never thought football should be getting massive tax break but I also don't like I don't like the idea of getting rid of them being associated with the state disciplining the NFL. I agree that if the players and the owners want protest during the national anthem that's there choice and they are welcome to it. any fan that disagrees with what they are doing can decide not to support them but other then using the bully pulpit by elected repersentives and the president government should not be using it legislative power to try and dictate how everyone should should behave.

NFL is no longer non-profit after giving up tax exempt status in 2015.This has to do with other tax ramifications!
