CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) -
Players from the Cincinnati Bengals locked arms during the national anthem before the game against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. ....Every single Bengals player stood for the national anthem like they’ve done all season long.

It is mostly one race that does the kneeling.
Hands on heart or salute as appropriate.
It is a dodge that is improper behavior during the National Anthem.
They know what they should be doing at that time and locking arms isn’t it.

And almost all the NFL players get paid TONS AND TONS. of $$$$$$$$. . ( and enjoy widespread adoration and fame too) for playing a children’s game. If they’re not happy with their “jobs” they should quit and go seek jobs at McDonald’s or a carwash somewhere. I’m Sick of them!!
That's what is sounds like to me too.
Hubby turned on the game, but got disgusted and turned it off.
I don’t know if the cable company can see what shows customers watch.
Oh please it’s an FU to Whitey Trump and Conservatives in any
order. It’s an FU to law and order the cops and the military.
Trillions of dollars in transfer payments housing AA and setasides did not
fix the dysfunction but amplified it.
That’s a good point. I did salute the flag during the Anthem with my hand to my the brim of my hat hundreds of times, though. By holding hands like Sodomites during the Anthem, those players are disrespecting me and millions of others.
For the record, did I see that Trump tweeted locking arms was good?

“Standing with locked arms is good.”
Yes, he did... but maybe only good enough... I agree with the post that says, “they know what they should be doing” and that is standing attentive and alert.
I remember seeing baseball players standing with the civilian salute (hand over chest) during the Anthem, usually with their hats in their saluting hands. Did that myself, too, as a kid in little league.
That one protest changed me forever.
Even looking at that pic disturbs me.

I suspect that right now, the ratings are being manipulated so that the meltdown is swept under the rug. There are too many factors at stake: the reputation of the black racists, the Billionaire cowardly owners, hundreds of billions in advertising and TV revenue sales....not to mention the fact that these vermin cannot afford to "let Trump win."
And what are they "protesting", exactly?
Oh, that's right - the cops are shooting innocent black men in cold blood. Sure.
Even the Washington Post had to admit the truth:
‘Hands up, don’t shoot’ was built on a lie
For the first time in 50 years I don’t know who won the Bengals game. I really could not care less. I’m done with them. I’ve never really taken time to watch or really understand the NHL. Will have some additional leisure time this winter so I think I see what this hockey is all about.
RIP,Saint Michesl.

I'm pretty sure they do if you use one of their cable boxes or stream to a portable device. In fact I would suggest leaving your set on Sunday tuned to NASCAR or even a screen showing weather radar. Let ‘em know you're not watching the enemy product.
I might also suggest that we all stream Youtube all day Sunday or just get out of the house and go someplace public (park, library, etc.) anywhere that an up-tic of people who would usually be home watching the games would be noticed.
What if we all gathered on the public square with our flags and had a marathon National Anthem sing-in. Post the pictures and videos on the nfl Facebook page.
Wrt Foxnews, they did move Hannity to 9 and are bringing in Laura Ingraham in October and Tucker hadn’t been too bad either. Nice to see the five gone out of prime time. So maybe they got the message from people like you. Wrt football, I am a phins fan but like you this is starting to annoy me.
At least there is one player with a shred of decency.
With his background he knows full well why you stand with hand over heart for the anthem.
