The sports world has responded to President Trumps criticisms of NFL players who protest against the national anthem. On Friday night, Trump gave a fiery speech in Huntsville, Alabama, while speaking at a rally for Republican Senate candidate Luther Strange. President Trump referred to NFL players who protest the anthem as as SOBs. He also said that it would be a winning public relations move if an NFL owner were to fire a player for such a protest.
Trump said:

By Saturday evening, the NFL Players Association, Commissioner Goodell, and the leadership of several different NFL franchises, had responded to Trump.

Leftists have had a free ride for much too long. They are finally being held accountable for their contemptible hatred of our great nation.
Hollywood is on the skids. Support for their vulgarity and obscenity is evaporating before their eyes.
The Democrat party is losing elections and support at a rate that will leave it in the ditch.
Left leaning churches are losing membership at a rate that is closing churches at a precipitous rate.
Environmentalists are losing battle after battle.
Education is increasingly confronted with vigorous opposition to its Marxism.Even the vaunted NFL is facing dramatically reduced support due to its elitist contempt for American ideals.
The people of this nation are rising up. A new day is dawning in America.
Amen!
Although they may never read this, here’s my message:
Dear NFL Owners-
I’ll make this short and to the point. Your FAN BASE is chock full of patriotic, God-fearing, America-loving people. We love our country, and anyone who says anything bad against it is on our ‘sh*t list*.
Any player from ANY team who refuses to honor America by kneeling or sitting for the National Anthem...those players must be FIRED instantly.
We who are your money-making FAN BASE are growing tired of their crap. Either you give instructions that ALL PLAYERS MUST STAND AND SHOW RESPECT for our country during the National Anthem, or WE, the FAN BASE will NOT WATCH or ATTEND your games. Try to pay those exorbitant player salaries when NO ONE is coming to or watching your games.
You have been warned.
Sincerely,
The America-loving FAN BASE
Trump did not castigate the entire industry.He provided constructive criticism. I would hope my president would do that for any American industry that was in the process of committing suicide.
Trump wishes NFL owners would tell anthem protesters “get that son of a bitch off the field right now”
>><<
Love it.
I am an owner of the Green Bay Packers I applaud Pres Trumps statement.
>><<
I know 6 or 7 Packers owners and they are very happy, too.
I now have my Sundays back — thank you, Failing NFL.
Stuck on stupid and hateful.
And yet the CEO didn’t.
Prayerfully, church attendance will go through the roof!
And yet the CEO didnt.

I hope the stock holders have a say in that.
The left is letting the All American NFL billion dollar juggernaut kill themselves with leftism. It is quite remarkable and a great portion of America and its institutions are infiltrated and basically destroyed or getting there.
Yahoo sports says six owners/team presidents. (NYG, Miami, Tenn, GBP, ATL, and SF). Arthur Blank was one of the six who is being divisive. Buy at Lowes not Home Depot if you have a choice. Hit not only their NFL franchise but their other businesses.
If they do not like us getting mad at their unpatriotic players, then move the frigging franchise to someplace else, such as North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Venezuela. There the players would be loved and cheered.
Trump may have intended it that way, but make no mistake about it: the message got out to the entire NFL. That’s why the Giants were one of the teams whose owners publicly rebuked him — even though NONE of their players have been staging these stupid protests during the national anthem.
Donald Trump is all about the little guys standing up to the big guys.
Several NFL owners can go straight to hell!
“Methinks the owners are scared of blacks.”
The last thing they want is BLM and Antifa crashing their cushy lives.
Exactly. None of these POS leftists believe in open “conversation” — just look at how the upcoming “Free Speech Week” at Beserkly is on the verge of collapsing because the university bureaucrats would not cooperate with permitting and security issues. All “conversation” is one-way for Leftards, and the word “conversation” is just another propaganda tool to beat us over the head with.
Tee time at 12:40 tomorrow. No NFL, and will tape the PGA/Fed-EX event...Life is good. Who needs the NFL?
