The NFL is the only business model I know of where they intentionally insult their customers and believe the customers will give them their money..................

The only way the message would be heard is if half the fans left the stadium immediately after the Anthem is sung, if any player kneels. As long as people still fill the seats and buy the merchandise, the owners won’t care.

Stop buying tickets and stop watching games. Patriot games are sold out for the year. I always get offered tickets for the cold weather games. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Will Goodell write a letter calling the fans divisive? Maybe the clowns announcing the game for ESPN tonight can criticize the fans and call on them to apologize.

“Isn’t it interesting that a Moslem, [who was ADOPTED by WHITE people and raised as a CHRISTIAN], got this started?”

He’d better check HIS OWN, ‘White Privilege!’

I want to slap the p*ss out of that jack@ss.

“Instead, wear USA themed garments to games and elsewhere.”

Great idea. But, I’m STILL going to sleep in my Reggie White jersey. Reggie would NEVER put up with this cr@pola!

PLUS - these guys are AT WORK, ON THE CLOCK. Who among us gets to act this way at work and still keep our job? How about when I arrive at the office, I SPIT on the framed photo of the guy who signs my paycheck?

How long do you think I’d last?

Well, NOBODY wanted him as a baby. Funny how that’s all been swept under the rug! I’d like to hear what his adoptive parents have to say about all of this, or even his brothers and sisters!

Yeah, good idea. Let those un-American a$$holes play football in their pussy hats. Better yet, force them to!

Just the NFL business model?
Not exactly accurate, O Red One. Just off the toppa my noggin, there’s also Target, JC Penney, Hollywood, the Democrat party. Starbucks, Facebook, Planned Parenthood, PBS, the Dept. of Education, EPA ... there are plenty more.
Matthew 18:19 And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away.

The ;eft came for prayer and the flag and the pledge of allegiance. Now the anthem.
They push perversity and want to take *our* natural rights: freedom of expression, peaceable assembly, self defense.
But not their own rights, just ours. And they are relentless.

President Trump is right again, and they hate him for it. Their god is mammon. Hit them where it hurts. Economic boycotts are the only things that work with the left. Starve the NFL.

The NFL is flaunting it and waving it (pun intended) in our faces.

The others are just more subtle and devious...................

I knew what you meant. The NFL just happens to be on our radar right now.

My point is a rule from years ago that my siblings and I came to observe: `If it looks bad, don’t eat it; if it tastes bad, spit it out.’
It was inspired from an unpleasant dinner experience involving: liver with onions, brussel sprouts and spinach with vinegar sauce. (shudder)
My poor Mother was mortified by the behavior of her normally well-behaved children, but these odious things disappeared from the Dice table.
Misbehave, well behaved conservatives! I’d rather starve than eat what the left is putting on our plates.
