NFL moms ask Trump to stop ‘divisive language’ in open letter

NFL mothers have sent an open letter to President Trump, defending their sons and pleading for him to “put a stop to the divisive language” he’s been using against them.

“[We] believe in promoting a positive image of professional football players as athletes and young men of character,” reads the letter, which was sent by the Professional Football Players Mothers Association and obtained by BuzzFeed News.

“It saddens the organization to know that President Donald Trump would make our sons — as well as their mothers — the target of inflammatory, offensive comments that are intended to promote anger and hatred, depleting them of their heritage and self-identity.”

The PFPMA, which represents the mothers of NFL players and serves as a support system, sent the letter to Trump on Thursday in the wake of his remarks about the ongoing NFL protests.

No dads though, because no one in the hood can identify them.

They really think this chaos is because of what Trump has said. It doesn’t dawn on them that President Trump is only saying what everyone else is thinking. Doh!

200 players protesting this week.

A few weeks back it was a lot less, single digits maybe.

What happened in the meantime?

200 is still only about one in eight players.

Maybe not enough to blame the whole league or all the players and their moms.

Tell your sons to stand up during the National Anthem.

Tell your sons to start treating their girlfriends and/or wives as women and not ho's.

Tell your sons to act like men and not pre-teen aged boys while on the field...and off the field for that matter.

Then we can talk.

“NFL moms ask Trump to stop ‘divisive language’ in open letter”

NFL billionaire owners now hiding behind the apron strings of the mothers of the players.

There is not a leader in the whole bunch. This is disturbing on many levels.

I realize moms (parents) often can’t control or even influence their adult children. I was merely making the point that these moms don’t even have a hope of addressing tens of millions of angry fans while their sons are acting out in such obnoxious ways.

(((
If they are Americans, showing respect for the flag and for the National Anthem should be part of their heritage and identity.

Dear NFL Mothers: You gave birth to a bunch of entitled creeps who do nothing of value for the rich living they pass on to you.

In other words...Go to Hell and take your kids with you.

The NFL mothers need to stop their sons from divisive kneeling against Americans.
