YouTube description: Driving to a follow up visit I was listening to the Armstrong and Getty Show (The Morning Answer sucks!) and they broke some news that will surely be investigated to be substantiated if true. Due to the quarterback standing during the anthem and the all black offensive line kneeling, there could be some ideological as well as racial animus going on. I included Bill O'Reilly's thoughts as well.

Here are the highlights/(lowlights) from the game.

Raiders vs. Redskins | NFL Week 3 Game Highlights
This is awesome for any number of reasons. It is devastating for the NFL for anyone to even suggest that such a thing is possible.
That should be the last nail in the NFL coffin....black offensive linemen allowing their white QBs to get crushed. Talk about taking one for the team.....
AND there you have it...
ANOTHER reason you keep politics off the field.
FIRE EVERY PLAYER THAT DOES ANYTHING POLITICAL ON THE FIELD
Even if they didn’t intentionally throw it and let their quarterback get crushed, putting their focus on politics instead of sports before the game cannot be helpful. Did Russia hack their brains?
Is it true that the stadium was packed?
Very disappointing...
When you find yourself in a deep hole of your own making, stop digging....
Because it ain’t gonna get any better from here on out, buttercup.
To be fair, the National Football League has pretty much become Kabuki theater, anyway.
Some people don’t have enough adversity and drama in their lives, they have to go out and create some more.
Some 95% of the personal woe in this world is self-induced. Maybe some 5% is because you got in the way of somebody else’s bad judgment.

Ah, no. I watched that game and the Skins played a very good game while the Raiders did not. Carr made two bad throws that resulted in picks, and they weren’t due to poor protection. Marshawn Lynch was pathetic. I’ve always thought the Raiders were overrated this year when they rode a weak schedule last year to respectability. This year they have a much tougher schedule and it’s showing.
If Armstrong and Getty used it as an argument I would say it’s CNN type crap.
Whoa! If that is the case, couldn’t the players be prosecuted, like the old Chicago White Sox? Isn’t intentionally throwing a game illegal?
Every team but Dallas that had a big protest meeting lost.
I don’t know if it’s true or not. Though I can see it happening.
For the cubicle bound: Armstrong and Getty’s source heard an offensive lineman say, “He wants to stand alone he can stand alone on the field.”
A reporter was supposedly told he’d be blackballed if he reported it.
Pro Football is a show. Nothing real about it. No different than talented performers in music, theater and dance.
That there is a score is incidental to their performance, not central. When a team gets bad enough to never win, mechanisms come into play to level things out. The point being to keep up the pretense of competition.
It is faked at the highest levels. why not assume it will be at its lowest levels?
There should be a class action against the NFL for violating their own rules, written code of conduct that the fans count on when attending or watching an NFL game.
The NFL is cheating the fans of the experience they paid for in attending or watching games. I bet if they has 50 million plaintiff’s in this class action lawsuit they might break the NFL.
Where are the good Class Action attorneys.
Where are the ANTI-TRUST attorneys?
I thought only wrestling was fixed.
Even if they didnt intentionally throw it and let their quarterback get crushed, putting their focus on politics instead of sports before the game cannot be helpful.
If they let their quarterback get crushed then they intentionally threw the game.
Unfortunately the Patriots won as well after protesting.
Pro wrestling is scripted, not “fixed”. That’s like saying a TV show is fixed.
