Either way - i am going to cut my viewing of professional sports way down.

Doesn't sound like you are serious in coming at the problem... we need to stand together tall and boycott!! NO viewing...nada.

Consider this.

This spectacle is said to have started with the President saying wouldn't it be great if one of the owners said,.....yout are fired. (abbreviated) You all know what he said. We were told this showed great disrespect and it was all his fault. Know this....they said the President showed disrespect.

I have noticed over the past 15 years or so that the coach on the sidelines called plays behind a clipboard or fist full of papers. WHY? WHY is that considered necessary? It is because the coach knows that the other team has a proclivity to cheat. Belacheks organzation was caught cheating. So cheating an acceptable pejorative but not 'you're fired.'

Then of course when a person 'catches' a pass which is questionable the quarterback screams 'hurry up' so it will not be properly reviewed. Willingness to cheat. The receiver does not go to the referee and say, I didn't make a good catch. He is willing to cheat.

So we can conclude that the people who know the team members best know they must guard against their football mates cheating.

I remember the teaching when I was a kid, It is not whether you win or lose it is how you play the game. Doing right seems to be sucking hind tit while the proven cheats on the teams are never called on their cheating except to hide behind a clipboard.

Their fan base was mostly white and middle and lower class.

So you have a bunch of rich, racist Blacks using football to promote an anti-white, anti-American agenda on fans.

They may be “taking a knee” to the ground this week, but they’ll end up taking a knee in the shorts in the future.

Yeah - the new meme is “team unity” while markedly ignoring the anthem/flag. Ain’t gonna fly.

On July 7, 2016, Micah Xavier Johnson ambushed and fired upon a group of police officers in Dallas, Texas, killing five officers and injuring nine others. Two civilians were also wounded.

Congrats on giving up the NFL drug... It was my very first addiction and it was my last one to conquer.

“The knee before is to say, “We are protesting the president, not the anthem.”

The knee before is to say, We are protesting the country, but don’t want to get blamed for it.

Jerry Jones and all the NFL owners are nothing but weak sisters and America haters!!! End of Story. The once great Dallas Cowboys will never, ever be America’s team again.

The Cuban and Venezuelan flag should fly over Cowboy stadium and the Anthems of Cuba & Venezuela should be played & honored before every Dallas Cowboy home game.

I guess the fans will have to FIX it.

Putting aside the fact that the NFL stuff is being used by both sides as a distraction from a lot more important things in this country, most NFL fans care about three things:

Ridiculous ticket prices.

The score at the end of the game

Avoiding Buffalo Bills fans.

I wasn’t defending the action. I’m saying the same thing you’re saying, basically, but just in a badly-worded way.
