Dozens of NFL players for the Baltimore Ravens and Jacksonville Jaguars showed a unified front on Sunday and kneeled as the national anthem played during the start of their game in London, defying President Trump’s attacks on the league's athletes.
Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin also announced on "NFL on CBS" his team will not participate in the national anthem before its game Sunday against the Chicago Bears.

Too many people in Maryland worship at the holy church of St Raven. Hopefully they will see that these thugs are spitting in their faces.
I hope some radio station has a jersey burning bonfire. I can’t go because I have no purple shirts.
Yeah, one idiot rookie, who seems to have forgotten that in Baseball, there’s this thing called the “minor leagues”.
Enjoy your short stay in “The Show”....a-hole.
All these players care about is GREEN..stop watching and the money will dry out..if NFL owners bleed money they won’t be able to pay 80 million bucks a year to scum bag felons
These idiots are showing that they hate Trump more than they love their country. That is not a good look for them.
If they are so serious about the discrimination they are receiving, I demand they resign from football and get a ‘real job’ of the type they think they can do. I doubt none of them are willing to do so, because they want to whine while they drink the wine they buy with money from the people they disrespect.

Good idea!!
Turn it around...
So this dope takes a knee but removed his cap and placed his hand over his heart?
He sending conflicting messages!
All ob dem dat be neelin’ dey be obammy’s boys. Deh be no Whiteys be neelin’.
Is it kneeled or knelt?
All those black players are “owned” by the NFL team “Owners”...they are literally SLAVES!!!!
They should “run-away” to Canada using the underground network of “private jets” they can charter with their vast wealth!
It is the principle of the thing, they shouldn’t be slaves anymore!
Did slaves on cotton plantations just “Take a Knee” in the cotton field, NOPE, they fled to Canada!
All these cowardly chicken necked NFL slaves need to get in their fancy jets and fly to Canada for the winter football season!
someone should remind these bozos that England had slavery too!
Slaves kneel. Free men stand! They seem to know their place is on their knees. One can almost hear them say...
“You may owns my body but my soul belongs to,ah to, ah, to youall Massah!”
(I stole that line from an cartoon about blacks being subservant to Democrat policy a few years ago)
Stood for Elizabeth REX I, whose Captain John Hawkins made many a slave trip to Africa?

They should lay face down on the ground. That’s how they spend much of their spare time anyhow.
“NFL is dead to me now. Could not care less what they do or how they play.”
What you said is exactly what happened to me in the late 1990’s when it was obvious the “thug” behavior was increasing in number, the NFL and college football no longer existed.
I refused to contribute money, time, energy or emotions to groups or individuals who tolerate or excuse behavior which leads to decay and negativity.
I also vote against any bill providing tax payer funding to build arenas or stadiums.
LMAO. What a load of bollocks, No-one here EVER kneels for the National Anthem.
This crap is a result of Obama’s War on Cops. The only way it is going to end is when fans start walking OUT.
