No doubt Ross is TERRIFIED of the thugs he employs. So now he retreats.
Manhood is dead in the NFL. Glad I decided to boycott them long ago.
I don’t know why they even call themselves owners anymore. The NFL now owns the Teams and the owners have become renters of each Team, and investors of the NFL.
NFL viewership is and will continue to dwindle, Ross....you and others like you keep talking, kk?
If I were an owner, I would institute a simple rule. If you sit for the anthem (or any other form of disrespect), you sit for the game and will be paid according to your contract’s provision for willfully missing a game.
Three such occurrences and you will be traded. If no one is willing to trade for you, then you will be released as a free agent.
My guess is that after the NFL lawyers got his mind right he legally had to clarify his statement.
I'm encouraged by his stance. I'll watch his actions next season to see if the message is received by his players. Legally, by NFL contract, he cannot force players to stand during the anthem, but he sure can let his interests known before he signs big salary checks.
Time for Trump to order an end to all the US Military Honor guards, formations and flyovers at these events. Also time for the NFL to start paying for the enormous security costs incurred by local, state and federal agencies at these games. Tired of wasting tax dollars and forcing honorable men to associate themselves with slime.
Standing with virtue-signal arms linked? No go, Mr. No go.
I have no intention of watching the NFL. What this wimpy ass owner does is of no concern to me.
Win some games. That is what football is for, right?
