What the NFL is doing is forcing fans to pick between a bunch of thug supporters who disrespect the flag/country/heritage of America and America. This is no longer just about the BLM and Police brutality. It has escalated way beyond that. If they aren’t careful; this will escalate into a race war. Next thing you know the blacks will burn down their own neighborhoods... again.

Got news for the NFL. The people will pick America. Those who don’t, well, I’ve got no use for them and will take notice who they are.

The real irony is this is all based on a lie. The police normally use more force on blacks only when they resist and fail to follow directions. The place to fight the police for perceived injustice is in the courtrooms; not the streets. I think big mouths get more people in trouble than anything else.

Just listened to Tomlin’s interview, sounds like his reasoning is to keep the kneeling players off the field and not showcase them to cause divisiveness with fans and other players. Says he respects the anthem. Don’t agree with this tactic but it sounds like he’s just trying to avoid controversy.

Falcons and Lions: No one kneeling, all standing with locked arms. Seemed OK to me until the end, then the one singing the National Anthem takes a knee at the end and raises a fist.

Switched the channel.

These overpaid ghetto thugs are spitting on the graves of each and every member of the US Armed Forces that laid down their lives for this country when they take a knee during the national anthem. Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each and every soldier that died protecting it. If these b*stards hate this country so much, get the hell out! I am done with the NFL!

The Eagles “locked arms in solidarity” during the National Anthem. Just like Trump calling out Antifa violent thugs and exposing the truth, he put their antics on notice. It took the Eagles players hours in behind closed doors session to come up with this childish idea of locking arms. I expect more players and teams will find creative ways to stage hissy fits.

Here’s hoping the boycotts become so great the National Felony League will be bankrupt within the next 3 years and completely disintigrated.

Virtually every SJW impulse currently inflicting the NFL has come from the Steelers who falsely posture as a middle America organization. The Rooneys are left wing lunatics IMHO.

The most highly-privileged people in the country are $hitting on it. They get many times more money than me. $hit on them. No more NFL for me.

If the Steelers can’t be on the field with their hands over their hearts when the music starts, they’re choosing to side with the America haters.

“Losing My Religion”

Oh life, it’s bigger
It’s bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I set it up

That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour
I’m choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this, the hint of the century
Consider this, the slip
That brought me to my knees, failed
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around
Now I’ve said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream

America must be losing it’s religion.

Players and the NFL, are playing this up as being a protest against Trump and not against America. I say, it’s against what America stands for.

So, why not the whole country take away that very visible platform that the players are using to insult America?

Let’s do away with the playing of the National Anthem at the beginning of NFL games? And, it other leagues encourage the same behavior by their players, let’s take away that platform too.

The disgusting players lose their platform with the TV audience, and they’ll have to figure out a different venue to carry out their disgusting behavior. They’ll also become the bag guys with the majority of Americans, and the sports sponsors will have to rethink their commercial placements.
