NFL and sports have already taken first place in disrespecting our country, our President, our flag and most of the spectators.

To see 8 yr old kids take the knee took the cake for me. Parents who told them to do that, and coaches, school officials, and all sports organizations that do not put a stop to such actions, are guilty of doing much damage to the United States. They have lost their minds and only know how to follow/mimic the wrong pied piper. weak and mindless people.

Y'know what ?

FU, Goodall !

The division began with asshole koperdick and no one did anything, although a LOT of negative commentary resulted from it.

And President Trump's comments, no matter WHAT they are .... are NOT the divisive ... the divisive is the mulatto bastard that disrespects our National Anthem, our flag and our nation.

I know a great way to mature the NFL.

Next draft for the entire NFL should be the Marine Corps.

Let the spoiled rotten little millionaire’s serve someone else for a change.

How do they create unity by protesting our nation?

this is really crazy, what’s going on with the NFL.

This situation now Goddell is taking issue with Trump. It puts the NFL in the news in a bad light, taking attention from what happens in the games.

And other things are happening too, which take attention from the games. TV ratings are down quite a bit.

Some cities are having trouble selling tickets to NFL games, which is something the league never anticipated.

The Rams play to a half empty LA Coliseum.

The Chargers, in their first season after moving from San Diego, can’t even sell out their 27,000 seat soccer stadium temporary home. I guess there wasn’t much excitement in LA when the Chargers moved there, was there???

The NFL seems to have many “off the field” problems on their plate. The last thing Goddell or the NFL owners want to see, if off the field issues taking attention from what happens on the field, in the games.

Maybe he should be called ‘Uncle Tom’ Goodell for kissing black players rear ends...

Frank Sinatra once said that any business who doesn’t think their customers are important, just try doing business without them.

Goodell and his inner circle will learn the hard way.

C ya!

Most of the players are overpaid, entitled, dirtbags, so the fact that they behave like entitled, dirtbags comes as no surprise. The owners on the other hand are terrified of the monsters that they themselves created, and would rather ride the NFL Titanic to the bottom rather than stand-up to these thugs.

Not agreeing with people protesting against the country is divisive?

Roger Goodell is the hermaphrodite responsible for the feminization of the NFL.

Letting millionaire spoiled brats do as they please, and insulting America at their whim, is what he is all about.

Goodell must have borrowed Hillary’s tin ear. What a stupidly un-self-aware thing to say.

The people, including the President, of this country owe the NFL, its 32 billionaire owners, its trained monkey commissioner, its self-absorbed brat millionaire players nothing; they owe this country everything.

Make that 8 year-old BLACK kids who have been wrongly “taught”to emulate the BLACK trash that are masquerading as “professional athletes!”

Isn’t “being disrespected” one of the main reasons hoodlums kill? Stupid, stupid thinking.

I wouldn’t be too hard on them, they have lost a big part of their lives.
It happened to my church, homosexuals ruined it, so it split up. We built a new church.
I hope the NFL splits up because I am doubtful that it will wake up.
Hopefully, ratings take a dive.

As the ratings drop, so, too, will the cost of ads. At this rate, the Super Bowl will look more like a Super Cup!
