Majority of players aren’t real smart to begin with...After they lose their multi million dollar contracts,only then will they see the damage they caused themselves....

How ironic is it that MLB has managed to shield itself from this idiocy by having rosters filled with immigrants from Latin America who have no doubts about just how great this country is?

Watch carefully, as I suspect the NFL may follow suit

I also suspect over the next few years, certain 'all-pro' won't get contract offers, while certain top college prospects fall into lower rounds in drafts for unknown reasons.

I'm not a sports fan but certainly not unaware of football. The NFL has been a huge money making machine in America for decades. It employs hundreds of thousands of people from the players to coaches, manufacturers of sports equipment, food vendors, TV advertising ,etc. It the owners of these teams have any brains they'll put a stop to this bs or lose everything they've worked for and profited from for over sixty years.

The only professional football game I ever attended was the Superbowl where the undefeated Miami Dolphins beat the Washington Redskins. I believe I was 12 at the time.

Ok, NFL, you are insulting 50% of your fans, so I guess you don’t want Conservatives as fans. I got better things to do.
