NFL should stand for “No Fans Left”.

[Mr. Mojo]

Honoring the bravery of officers and firemen, too controversial.

Protesting the national anthem, praiseworthy.

The NFL needs to die a quick but brutal death.

[MissH]

What about face paint, a blue line on each cheek or a temporary tattoo, blue line on each arm. Those would not be affixed to any part of the uniform. There are ways to get around the rules....

This incident back in August with the Colts,

What happened with the colts? I missed that one.

[M-cubed]

Hmmmmm..Didn't all those rich football players build their million dollar homes in their old ‘hood???....

Somebody should do a study....

I'll take a knee for HIPOCRACY!....Life is good on the NEW plantation...

Actually soccer is a much more fluid game than football whereas players don’t take 27 seconds of rest for every 8 seconds of action.

Rule 4

SECTION 2 STARTING A PERIOD OR HALF
ARTICLE 1. KICKOFF ON SCHEDULE. Both teams must be on the field to kick off at the scheduled time for the start of each
half. Prior to the start of the game, both teams are required to appear on the field at least 10 minutes prior to the scheduled
kickoff in order to ensure sufficient time for proper warm-up. Designated members of the officiating crew must notify both head
coaches personally of the scheduled time for kickoff prior to the start of each half...

What will the Steelers fines be ?

They wanted to wear a decal on their helmets, back in August, honoring the fallen cops killed in Dallas. The NFL said no.

[Delta 21]

With the league standing behind the hoodlums everyone will probably get a bonus. Except for that lone renegade Army Ranger that broke out and had the gall to show proper respect.

[TheNext]

The NFL pissed on the Mothers of Dead Soldiers
on Gold Star day.

[TheNext]

The owners have a real problem. If the kneelers are consistently better players, the stand ups may not win. Possibility.

[apocalypto]

An effective way is to boycott and contact the advertisers.

[Despot of the Delta]

Jerry ought to have the players put the stickers on their helmets tomorrow night

[Dick Bachert]

[taxesareforever]

But the NFL will let players wear an upside down American flag or a BLM emblem.

[Bob434]

Yet they didn’t ban the jerk kapernik from wearing pigs as cops socks

[CJ Wolf]

How about no more fly overs or any military participation for NFL. They don’t even have to play the anthem.
