The NFL is a multibillion dollar business that caters to people who are mostly pro-American, pro-military, pro-Trump, and it would look like the owners finally remembered this.
A stadium full of your fellow citizens says otherwise.

**** you Chris Long.
These owners dont love America more than the players demonstrating and taking real action to improve it.
Chris Long...If you want to know what is “honor” in the NFL, then emulate what JJ Watt is doing...JJ Watt is showing honor, not you....
You’re right Chris. It’s not Patriotism.....it’a Capitalism.
The guy with the gold makes the rules. Don’t like it? Don’t play.
I think there are ironies here. Namely, that the liberals who support players taking a knee tend not to be football fans in the first place.
So it’s not as if they will get a bunch of new fans in support of taking a knee, to replace those who tune out..
I wonder how season ticket sales renewals are going this off season.
I can’t wait to hear excuses as to why viewership and attendance are down if they are lower again this year.
The excuses from the past were crazy, such as:
The sunny side of the 49ers stadium gets so hot, that nobody wants to sit there.
The attendance dropped over Thanksgiving weekend because so many people were Christmas shopping or traveling.
Attendance dropped in the last few weeks because so many teams were out of playoff contention.
There were a lot of rainy days or cold weather last fall, keeping crowds down.
Some games were rescheduled, and people didn’t know what time or channel the game was on.
The reasons for the drops were anything besides public anger at the players protests. In there morning and, it had to be anything besides the players behavior driving fans away.
He can always get a real job being useless.
“Former Patriots defensive end Chris Long”
Former?
How about current Philadelphia Eagles player?
Guess “Patriot” sounded better...
Die NFL, die.
In one of his last games, I watched Howie damn near freeze to death in a game against Green Bay back in December of 1991. It was at least 10 below zero and Howie was still playing his guts out.
He needs to have "the talk" with his son.
Here’s a thought experiment: let’s imagine instead that some NFL player decided to exercise his 1st Amendment rights, and burned a flag on the field during the anthem.
It’s ridiculous to think the NFL can’t mandate player behavior. As usual, the Left has the intellectual clout of a rock.
Let them stand, kneel, crawl on their bellies or sit in lounge chairs. They should have the freedom to speak and behave as they choose.
And I can ignore them, not buy from their sponsors, and never watch a game all season.
It will all work itself out.
Is this dufus the offspring of Howie Long?
Chris Long, spoiled brat offspring of a multimillionaire. Social justice posturing to be cool.
Retire, Chris.
Who knows! The NFL could go the way of “roller derby”.
none of you love america.
