All NFL players had better stand with hands over your hearts next Sunday, or it's over.

You fellas in the NFL had better all stand with your hands over your hearts next Sunday, or your sport is doomed. It is pretty obvious that you don't believe this, but watch what happens next. You are forcing fans to choose between loyalty to lawless, disrespectful, bigoted black players mostly who feel they can do whatever they want whenever they want and the country governed by rules of law and requirements of patriotic loyalty to survive.

This is almost literally a choice between a collapsing path to severe division and civil war, or unity in honoring our country and flag a de-escalation of conflict. This is the dividing line in our history going forward. Either you are for this country, or, you are against it as it stands. You can NOT have it both ways. You are trying to FORCE us to accept your rebellion and get rid of Trump and all we voted for, or else.

Choose you this day whom you will serve moment for all of us. It actually is a choice between good and evil this time.

Are you not seeing the two HS players on the right?

Bingo!

I don’t think this has quite sunk in yet for most. This was an unforgivable traitorous act.”

Yep, those NFL kneelers just “shat in their mess-kit”; boycott the games & the sponsors & tell them why- that you won’t support traitors.

True, but since the league is like 80% black, then one white player kneeling, is a larger % of the players. Will you accept that argument? lol

The whole HS team was told to kneel.

Are you saying there is no racial aspect to this anti anthem BS? Really? Just come out with it? If this is not about race then what is it?

This thing is all about race. Black is the new red.

Wrong to protest in other lands—Look at the Dixie Chicks?

Very similar to my “sports evolution” through life. Will remain a Wild fan, but not to the extent that I was a North Stars fan. Norm Green still sucks. (that bumper sticker still can be seen around Minnesota). I will stand for our anthem, as well as “O Canada” to honor service to both countries. Be well my FRiend.

I don’t think Trump mentioned black athletes, is my point. Is it about race where the athletes are concerned? Of course it is.

Not over this, this is a patriotic issue.

And football is being destroyed by terrible playing as well.

Didn’t England support the Confederacy during the US Civil War?

The fans are reacting to black racism. It really doesn’t matter what Trump said or says about it.

Need to give them at least a warning. Then, no mercy.

I cleaned shelves in the kitchen cabinets & re-organized a closet.

Next Sunday I will bring 4 saddles into the living room & clean & oil them.

IF my 700 +++ paperback books were not already packed so I can move, I would spend another Sunday or 2 alphabetizing them all by author.

MLB ball players are in excellent shape.

Of course I didn't mean all of them. But there are more than a few who aren't in such great shape.

Oh man, that diving and flopping in soccer drives me nuts. You want a great laugh? Go on YouTube and search for “soccer sniper”.

It is a full out protest. Over the weekend I watched “The Enemies Within”. It makes so much sense why the left and people who only depend on network news loathe Trump.

At this point the “popular kids” like the NFL have joined with the Liberals on the public platform.

sounds like “don’t cross this line or else” and as the person crosses the line, a new line is drawn with the same warning....
