What they demonstrated on television is how far the league is in financial decline and that it has no way out of it other than pandering to a dwindling viewership.

Televised sports broadcasters and carriers know most patriotic Americans switched off YEARS ago and aren't coming back.

These players are not kneeling because they believe they're calling out oppression. They're kneeling for money - period.

When they start back with live audience the stands should be empty.

Unfortunately, not as empty as they should be. People will just be looking to get of their old lives and get away from the 'new normal'. I've never been a baseball myself; too much like watch paint dry. But I didn't mind a minor league game now and then. I'd actually prefer to watch minor league sports to major sport in the U.S. as those people are hungry and in many cases, love game.

I looked at pictures from the Dodgers and Yankees games on Getty. They’re all kneeling with heads bowed down deeply, while holding a long black cloth that looks like funeral bunting. There was nowhere near this much reverence and earnestness during post-9/11 ceremonies at Major League ballparks. SICKENING.

Thanks for the ping.

Let’s forbid ‘sports’ teams from using the National Anthem... Modern teams should switch to some sleazy rap music and a ‘bump and grind star’ from the half time show who can twerk the rap song out.

Then the players can kneel to look up her skirt...

Let’s keep it honest. This is what our ‘sports teams’ have become.

Also, games should start after 10 pm and OUT of family hours...

It’s disgusting. Outlaw it.

They can borrow the idea from the Seattle Kraken and perhaps become the Cleveland Amoeba .
