Retired Marine Col. Jeffrey A. Powers letter to the NFL Commissioner.

I had never seen this before, but even if it has been posted on here before, it deserves a replay for sure.


TOPICS: Chit/Chat; Sports
KEYWORDS: letter
He exemplifies my feeling exactly and why I no longer watch the NFL. Well worth the watch.

Better he focus on what the military is becoming, rather than the NFL.

Oh I am fully aware of what is happening to the military, but I still thought this was worth a replay. Some here still do not even get that aspect yet.

Just seems like they want to distract everyone with things like the NFL, to hide what they are really doing.

I'm not distracted in the least. I have been warning friends for decades. They are finally paying attention. But there are still some on this board who still don't even get the NFL thing and keep supporting them. But you are right, there are indeed bigger fish to fry. But we still need to fight on multiple fronts at the same time. If they can't understand this basic front, then they most likely don't see what is really happening anyway.

Take "vaccines" for example. While many are catching on to that problem, they aren't paying attention to the bigger problem at hand.

Perhaps if Colonel Powers were to grab Colin Kapernick by the throat and shout this in his face it would have a more direct impact.
