Maybe they’re gonna take the field with pants on the ground?
maybe he will just fire them first instead and hire new non thug players....it might even start a trend. Its his team and he can do or say what he wants.
Dear protesting texans I’m already gone. The only care I have for your league are these threads which eventually will show the consequences of your stupidity or maybe not if the fickle public returns to you one day. Either way you have shown us the light in a round about way.
I’ve found a couple ‘channels’ on youtube which are broadcasting live news. That’s right, live.
There are tons of issues they are demonstrating, how does each channel become an actual source of useful information? This is however, fascinating.
Still (very) early in the process, but very, very interesting.
This I believe is the next big thing. Could obliviate television. Including football.
Or not. But I’m sold on this. I currently keep cable on in the background all the time, but never actually watch it. The ‘off’ switch is becoming more, and more tempting.

Foreigners are free to leave the country if they can’t show respect for the flag or anthem. It’s just common courtesy.
Yeah. I was a big Packer fan my whole life.
Dead to me.

That's all I know.

I’ll find out about it here.

This is beyond childish now. News flash, Texans: NOBODY CARES.
Ditto that.
How about a real protest: 92nd of them pours gasoline on themself and the teammates, while in locked arms, tosses a match. I will tune in for that.
I always heard that it was "inmates running the asylum", not the prison.

Do they need a permit to hold an organized protest on public property?
Can’t sell my Texans PSLs fast enough.
