Doubling down on stupid. You can use all the platforms you want. I don't have to pay attention.

No stand and respect flag and anthem, and to show same, then continue boycott. Lots better things to do with our time and money.

Need to cancel public funding, tax breaks, and anti-trust exemption.

The ONLY thing the NFL respects is its revenue stream.

The NFL doesn't have the guts to pull back on their idiocy.

They will continue to lose fans.

By attacking the U.S., they have shown that they are a tool of the Left.

Someday the NFL will be used in business courses as a lesson on how to destroy a brand...

Time to revoke all the tax benefits.

If the league wants to be political it can do it on its own dine - not mine.

I don’t care anymore what they do or don’t do. The horse has left the barn.

As long as the kneel, I am out. I want an apology and a promise never to do that again while in uniform. They can do what they like on their own time, just like us peasants.

As for equality. My job is protecting critical infrastructure. I can argue my job is more important than theirs. Why am I not making $5 million a year. I demand equality.

These guys are just modern day gladiators here to entertain me. Just like actors and singers are modern day court jesters. Shut up and entertain me. I am NOT entertained!

NHL, please don’t screw up this opportunity.

“Money quote:

No second amendment support? Religious freedom support?

So, watching the NFL on TV and buying tickets and NFL gear is like supporting BLM, Hands Up Don’t Shoot, and the Democratic party. No thanks.

"Lockhart said the discussions will focus on how to use the broad platforms of the NFL, players and clubs to try and make progress on issues of equality, social justice and criminal justice reform."

Sure, the fans will gladly support that.

Not.

The fact that Lockhart even has a job there proves they have no plans to turn around this mess. They fully deserve to fail. Too bad....I really enjoyed pro football for many, many years....since B&W TV, actually. I feel like these ignorant, selfish bastards have stolen something from me.
