President Trump seems to be expressing a thought held by many employers.
If these players are not helping the team move forward and fill-the-seats, then move-on.
Seems these spoiled millionaires don’t realize it’s not their ability to play but their ability to fill the stadium seats that earns their pay. Any business owner knows that if you have an employee who is going to alienate 50 percent of your customer base, that employee has to go. If the NFL can’t or won’t see that, oh well! Reminds me of Natalie Maines and the Dixie Chicks in the lead-up to Gulf II. Dixie Chicks? Who are they?
Just saw on Fox News that most of the players kneeled for the National Anthem and stood for ghe British Anthem in the week 3 game in London earlier today.
BOYCOTT THE NFL

Agree. Respect the flag and the people who are paying your salaries, or go fend for yourselves. I look forward to seeing some of these players, after they have spent the massive amount of money they received, with no income in the future.
This disrespect is spreading to even the Children's Football Leagues. There is a team in Illinois where the coach encouraged all of the 8 year old and younger to not stand when the National Anthem was played and the Flag shown was without stars.
Total Crap!!!
This is what I love about president Trump. He may be a pompous ass like Rush Limbaugh, but they both say what millions of Americans think but don’t want to say because of the crap that will come their way. Keep being the voice of the silent majority!
BOYCOTT !!!

I think that our President saw the stories about little kids being coached to take a knee
and he thought to himself:
This has gone one too long!
So he felt he needed to speak out about it.
And Im so glad he did!
#FakeNews - President Trump did NOT say “the SOBs should be fired”. He said: “Wouldn’t you like to see one of the NFL owners, when someone disrespects our flag to say, ‘Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out.. He’s fired. He’s fired!’”
We've been saying that for a year, Donald. Welcome aboard!
To HELL with the NFL!
Try and display a Christian symbol on your nfl uniform. guddll won’t respect your 1st amendment right very much for that.
Well, I disagree. While I certainly don’t like people disrespecting the flag, they have a Constitutional right to do so. I don’t think the owners can fire them per se, but I guess they could direct the coach not to play them, but only so many players are allowed on each team. The owners can choose not to renew their contracts, which is what I would do.
Plus, other people have Constitutional rights as well. I don’t have to go to an NFL game, and I don’t. I don’t have to watch the NFL on TV, and I don’t. Many others are doing the same thing and I believe ticket sales and TV revenue for the NFL is down, way down. Good.
Flame away.
While we are fire people.. how about Mueller?
How about the obama holdovers?
Easy to tune out and turn them off.
Easier for me since I got sick of these over paid prima donnas a LONG time ago.
If most of them couldn’t carry a foot ball they would be digging ditches or trying to be on welfare.
Tune out, turn off it won’t take long for the money to stop flowing. Don’t want this gang back ever though at any price. There are plenty of others.
Watch what happens in basketball this season. They are losers as well.
I have much better things to do than watch sports on TV. Surely other people can find something more useful and enjoyable to do.
And look at the frickin’ NFL’s attitude here, they’re waggling their finger for “disrespecting the players”. Yeah, it’s not enough to shower them with money, they have to be LOVED at every turn, too.
Excuse me, Mr. NFL-spokesman, who is the customer again? And you guys wonder why your product is tanking.
What’s the problem with these athletes and standing up for our Flag and show respect for our Country,as President Trump Said. Answer...President Trump laid out it for them all plain and clear. I have a problem with their whole protest. When does it end. Too many people like sheep look at their acts of disrespect as some kind of heroism for their many complaints of our Country. What complete nonsense by these players and owners. Show Respect for Our Country! So Simple.
