Since when does the president have to show respect to the NFL? Especially when they’re a bunch of America hating traitors?

Well, he already had significant business interests. He handed the management of them off. I would imagine he could have handed off an NFL ownership as well.

He could have had a good administrator in charge. He probably would have anyway. The idea he’d be the hands on manager with all his other interests, was not assured.

It’s not a certainty than an NFL ownership would have blocked his next move into politics.

It could have. Maybe not. We’ll never know now.

Does anyone have an email for Goodell or NFL HQs? I can’t find one and want to give him a piece of my mind.

Attacking people’s race is not helpful.

Pretty strange - I had no idea that were fans out there whose only passion was watching other guys play a game - even above devotion to their own country!

Sad, really. Still, I have enjoyed my status as a 72 year old combat veteran "thug"...

Given it’s performance over the last couple of decades, the NFL is richly deserving of its current travails.

I stopped watching it some years back as there was too little football involved in the time commitment required to see a game. Also, the product isn’t very good these days. The announcers are lousy too. So I’m already on the boycott train. I have a feeling I’ll be seeing more new passengers after this weekend.

Things may well blow up, so to speak.

Perhaps the NFL isn’t interested in having a fly-over or a military honor guard at the Superbowl.

I don’t know. isn’t crony capitalism of the sort that the NFL practices the sort of thing that Trump ran against and won on? Aren’t the owners of those teams scummy for profiting off of practices which routinely leave their employees with brain damage??

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Saturday that President Trump’s recent comments about players kneeling during the national anthem are “divisive” and show a “lack of respect” for the pro football league and its players.

Dear Commissioner Goodell:

You and the rest of the anti-American "black LIES matter" crowd can go POUND SAND. Disrespect the flag and you disrespect my family which has a history of service to our country across the Army, Marines and Navy.

GOOD RIDDANCE NFL.

Wasn't Levi Stadium about half full last Thursday night? And IIRC there's talk of networks being forced to refund ad payments because of plunging ratings.

Sounds like the American viewer is showing his own kind of disrespect.

It ain’t Pete Rozelle’s NFL anymore. At least those dust ups between him and Joe Namath were entertaining.

Goodell and the NFL as a whole could not be more wrong if they tried.

Perhaps those NFL thugs and owners can find alternate employment at the Dollar Store after this year because I'm betting revenue will be half of last year if not lower.

Seen those half full stadiums ? The means no Jersey and tee shirt sales, $9 dollar hotdogs, overprices beers, parking fees.

And ESPN and the other NFL networks are not able to sell advertising at the old rate because the eyeballs are not on the TV screens.

It’s not enough that the public is expected to worship and pamper these privileged black professional athletes.

We must support their black racism, too.

These NFL and NBA players have one rule - in any controversy, stand with the black, right or wrong.

Eyewitness testifies Trayvon Martin was on top of the man, pounding his head into the ground like an MMA fighter. What do the multimillionaire privileged NFL and NBA black athletes do? Run onto the court and field wearing hoodies, to show their racist support for their fellow black, right or wrong.

Eyewitnesses and forensic evidence show Michael Brown assaulted a cop, grabbed his gun and charged him, after robbing a convenience store? What do the multimillionaire privileged NFL and NBA black athletes do? Mimic the hands up, don’t shoot lie to show their racism.

And this is supported by the lunatics in the MSM and Hollywood and universities, trying to do all they can to gin up anti-white hatred.

It takes very little for these privileged black athletes to display their racist, gang thug mentality.

NBA player and thug Chris Paul to the President of the United States: criticize us to our face, and we beat yo’ white azz!

Why can’t these players protest on their own time on their days off or after practice? They only do it while “on the clock”, wearing the uniform of the team that pays them. And if their beef is with perceived injustice by local police forces, why protest the National Anthem?
