I wouldn’t watch the NBA if all the players were in the Freedom Caucus. Some things are beyond partisanship.

“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a b—— off the field right now. Out. He’s fired! He’s fired!”

Hoo-ah!

I suspect that the NFL will cower in the face of the anti-American, anti-Veteran, anti-sports tradition and shameful "protests", and do something truly squeamish like remove our Anthem altogether.

Might a successful replacement or competing league ultimately happen? A league with (personal wish list) strict standards of conduct and appearance and include frequent drug screening? Oh, and bonuses for academic achievement?

That would be Jerry Jones. He said anyone pulling that would be outta there. How ‘bout them Cowboys?

"He also said that NFL ratings are down "massively, massively" because people prefer watching him. "

Ha ha ha! Trump is too awesome! The best part is, the liberals are so stupid, they actually think he means it.

Trump nails it!

Glad he’s calling out these losers for insulting our flag and our veterans.

NFL will go down another 5% after these comments. People will get on the Trump train for sure!

” He also said that NFL ratings are down “massively, massively” because people prefer watching him. NFL ratings dropped eight percent in 2016 compared to 2015. “


I really wish he hadn’t said that part. It made it about him,and not the flag.

“There’s the Trump we remember.”

Absolutely. I really don’t think he has changed much. He’s just having a hell of a time dealing with all the alligators in the swamp, and the RINOs in his backyard.

Absolutely, me too. I love Trump but he is wrong on this one. Go Roy Moore, come on Alabama!

“An NFL spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment on what Trump said.”

He’s hiding under his bed.

Ahahaha! That one's going to have 'em in a tizzy for days and then he's going to whack them over the head with their own excuses, it was because of the election. But they can't help themselves, they're going to rant on and on about this because it just sounds so un-PC and that drives them nuts.

Good opportunity to watch EXCELLENT, wide open football on a 150 x 65 yard field, without the ‘colour’ politics of the National Felons League. It’s called the CFL!
