“That could have been any one of us,” said free safety Ryan Clark.

Maybe they were protesting the murder of Odin Lloyd.

I agree! I am through with NFL. Become a boring offensive game with idiot owners.

You and me and hopefully millions more. I’m starting to look at the rabid fans as fools too.

This causes me possibly reconsider my support for them retaining their team name.

Actors and sports people need to keep politics out of their acting and sports.

It is difficult enough to watch the NFL players run around in pink football shoes.

We are at such a dangerous tipping point. At every turn Reality is trumped by Leftist Media-Driven Fiction, in order to support an anti white, anti christian, anti heterosexual, anti Liberty offensive.

Facts and evidence are no longer needed to support and promote arguments of the left.

The Left is determined to seize the moment and keep the momentum. They will not be deterred by facts. We are witnessing the beginning of the “Purge.”

Conservative Traditional Values Americans appear as capable of mounting a counter offensive as do the Kurdish Villagers against ISIS.

The NFL used to be the hallmark for respect, self-sacrifice and Christian behavior.

What they don't show you after every NFL game.

Nor do the 12 witnesses whose accounts agree with the officer’s.

They’d be better off if they slapped their hands over their mouths and went- “wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa, meetcha at the local wigwam for some fire water....” Things are just nuts.

I now support changing the name of the Redskins. If you throw your PC on us, payback is a bitch.

It was a better world when professional athletes had to get real jobs in the off-season.

Anyone find it ironic that they were playing the “Browns”?

Blacks complain they don’t have proportional representation by race in the Ferguson police department and any other place where they think there are too many whites and not enough blacks.

Whites should complain that they don’t have proportional representation by race in the NFL, NBA and other organizations where the overwhelming majority are black.

Did they not hear of or see the travelling circus? The family’s personal Medical Examiner disproved the fairy tale this fiasco is built on.
