That’s my thought too. When some stranger reaches to lock arms with the person next to him, they may get a knuckle sandwich in return. Fans need to plan a concerted action to neutralize the team SJW antics. Maybe something like a flash mob. Everybody puts on a MAGA cap, or turns their back on the field, or some other inventive idea.
Despite all the talk about racism, etc. the issue is PATRIOTISM. If these assholes can’t figure it out,the should move to a nice country like Venezuela or North Korea.
There already is a nice tribute, put your hand over your heart.
Exactly. Obvious ploy is obvious.
What they are saying is we are still going to disrespect the flag by not standing at attention and placing our right hand over our heart. We will try kneeling before the National Anthem, kneeling during the National Anthem, or kneeling after the National Anthem. We will try locking arms and singing kumbaya. So now they want to get the whole crowd to disrespect the flag and National Anthem. It’s never going to work!
NFL stands for
NO FANS LEFT
That includes ME !
I will NEVER go to a game and not watch any on TV.
I’d rather go sailing.
Those that bother to show up that is.
So, none of them are going to place their hands on their hearts? Sounds like they’re all going to protest the anthem now.
There sure seems to be a lot of COLLUSION going on with this bullshit. The Green Bay Packers (Mark Murphy) are saying the very same thing.
This crap needs to be stopped and NOW!!
They are protesting you.
They hate you.
We care about your world as much as you care about ours. Apparently it's important to you, to subject your fans to political propaganda against their will. We're not held captive, you know. Your guys might be economic illiterates who go bankrupt the minute their contracts are up now, but wait 'til they get a load of what's coming their way if they don't just shut up, pay their proper respects and play the game they're being very handsomely compensated to play.
Yes, you hit the nail on the head. I’ve been wondering where the mop-up operation from the left would begin, since they have already taken over the largest institutions (media, entertainment, academia, mainstream “Christian” churches, etc).
How about FU!
What’s next? Sitting in a huge circle with some pivot man doing the “honors”?
Linking arms with the racist Black Lives Matter.
No thanks, no more NFL.
NFL can go to hell.

Sec. 301 - National anthem
From the U.S. Government Printing Office, www.gpo.gov
§301. National anthem
(a) Designation.—The composition consisting of the words and music known as the Star-Spangled Banner is the national anthem.
(b) Conduct During Playing.—During a rendition of the national anthem—
(1) when the flag is displayed—
(A) individuals in uniform should give the military salute at the first note of the anthem and maintain that position until the last note;
(B) members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute in the manner provided for individuals in uniform; and
(C) all other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart, and men not in uniform, if applicable, should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart; and
(2) when the flag is not displayed, all present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed.
(Pub. L. 105–225, Aug. 12, 1998, 112 Stat. 1263; Pub. L. 110–417, [div. A], title V, §595, Oct. 14, 2008, 122 Stat. 4475.)
Locking arms is not acceptable. It is the old “We Shall Overcome” posture from the 60s being used by SJWs (Social Justice Warriors).
The NFL thinks they are above the flag.
A lot of good people died for that flag that represents the entire country. They just don’t get how of touch they have become.
Go to H@ll NFL!
Ah, I think the NFL forgot that a huge fraction of its fan base is politically Conservative. They just angered a large number of fans and this will result in lower TV ratings, lower in-stadium attendance, and upset season-ticket holders and stadium suite holders.
