Marshawn Lynch was ejected from the Raiders' game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday night after shoving an official.

Yep, it’s nice having Sunday afternoon freed up.
Can you imagine someone in that state driving?

Trump has created an atmosphere of divisiveness that causes this sort of thing to happen /s
FUNFL
Media is saying that Lynch was trying to protect Peters. Protect him from what? A penalty?
Is this just Thug Ball now?
Glad I haven’t watched for over a year since this crap started.
Hey, he was just exercising his Constitutional right to express himself. /s

Remove the sarcasm diclaimer and I guarantee you will see that exact sentence printed somewhere,soon.
Hardly anyone would’ve even known about this, if not for the SanFranFreako reporting it.

Kc’s and Oakland’s kneelers get unsportsmanlike penalties on the same play...who would have thought it?
You allowed them to protest on the field and now they have taken protest to a new level. NFL is to blame for this lack of discipline.

You said it——the inmates are running the asylum.

They’re just trying to drum up violent controversy so people will watch.
I’m not watching but if he came after a ref it should be a criminal case...an assault...

Permanent suspension would be appropriate.
It’s a physical game. He’s just expressing his first amendment right to protest. Refs need to suck it up.
