Former NFL coach Mike Ditka had a lot to say about the NFL players who plan to take a knee during the national anthem. He simply doesn’t care for it and he suggests anyone who’s taking a knee for the national anthem may as well get out of the country.
But don’t listen to me. Take it from the man himself as quoted by TMZ: “If you can’t respect our national anthem, get the hell out of the country. That’s the way I feel. Of course, I’m old fashioned, so I’m only going to say what I feel. You don’t protest against the flag and you don’t protest against this country who’s given you the opportunities to make a living playing a sport that you never thought would happen… so, I don’t want to hear all the crap.”

I like Mike!
Fired from what?
If you know the history, Ditka screwed up. He’s almost solely responsible for the rise of obama by not running for Illinois senate in 2006. We may have had to deal with obama later, but Ditka’s refusal to run directly led to obama’s rise
The NFL’s got no Ditka.
The story is called the “Sexless Sex Scandal”. Jack Ryan got railroaded.
Mike Ditka, “Iron Mike,” pride of my Pitt Panthers forever.

Finally, someone thinking in terms of profit, not emotion. An added bonus is that the ChiComs would also lose the profit on this crap they manufacture.....
The big question now is, how many will actually not buy tickets, cut cable, forego additional paraphernalia???
My guess is, very few. The majority will keep shouting & hollering, shaking fists, using adult expletives as they continue shelling out their money to support those who wish to destroy all we hold dear.
Right on Mike!!!!!
Da Coach!
I knew I liked this guy.
But I wish he’d be noted as a great player HOF more than coach.
His sister lives or lived in my neighborhood. I went to school with her daughter.
He did commercials for Car Shield. I think he’s been replaced by the obnoxious Chris Berman.
Okay.
In Pennsylvania?
No, in the suburbs of Dallas.
