NFL players have defiantly reacted to President Donald Trump's criticism, with at least 100 players kneeling, sitting linking arms, giving black power salutes and not even showing up for the national anthem out of protest.

The Left chose the NFL to push its agenda because the NFL is composed of some very stupid people, from the commissioner on down. Easy target.
What’s worse is they, those running the NFL, don’t want to hear it as they took down the link to file a complaint with the NFL Operations. Just like typical leftists when they are flailing and failing, they don’t want to hear it.
They want to chalk this up as diverse opinion but disrespecting our flag and what it stands for has no place even in diverse opinion. It’s just flat out anti-American, period. I really hope and pray this backfires bigly on all these anti-American useful idiots.

It’s stupidity, plain and simple. Hollywood had a low draw at the box office this year. It’s time to think that stupidity can have consequences.
“That’s right, double down you morons.”
It’s really all they learned from their god the Fraud the past 8+ years.
“Dumb move on the part of the leftist corporate media complex.”
Goodell is some kind kind of handjob.
“The more insane the Felon League behaves, the more fans they’ll lose. I hope it goes belly up by the end of the season as stadiums empty out and audiences on TV turn it off”
Its like the NBA now.
Now, defying the expectations of the ticket buyers and other paying customers, in what is fundamentally an entertainment business - THAT may turn out to be a big problem. In fact, I kind of think it will.
Real men stand for their National Anthem and kneel only before God
Let’s hope that MANY MILLIONS tuned out today, and stay tuned out. The NFL has to feel some serious financial pain via its advertisers and sponsors for anything to change.
Let’s maintain a thorough list.
This guy is a true hero.
Not the Pittsburgh Kneelers.
The NFL is destroying itself one player at a time.
At least I have college football and the MLB to fall back upon.
Yes. Now Trump needs to promote soccer and pick up the Spanish and Italian votes.
“He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind” (Proverbs 11:29).
The NFL is looking at incoming wind, this is a battle they will lose. With any luck the uproar will take down America’s tolerance of political correctness and of SJW at the same time
Notice how the PR guys changed the focus from a protest to a showing of “team unity”. Silly me I did not feel unity was a problem on sports teams. So protest now has nothing to do with the antics.
In the meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles all stood for the American flag.

I need a pin or badge with NFL and red circle and line through it, anyone?
It will backfire bigly!!! Our President doesn’t say or do anything unless he has a reason...we are just finding out the reason about sports in the United States...stay tuned, more to come...
Actually the people buying all the crap pay the salaries in the long run, the money just passes thru the cucks’ hands...I’m praying these protests cripple the league.
