Sneaky, incremental and gradualistic. Very insulting!

Goodbye pro football. You had a good run but you’re done.

So what happens to a player who takes a knee during the black national anthem?

Enjoy, NFL - I will join the list that will not watch again. I used to be a big fan, now will be pissed if I have to pass though a channel with a “game” on.

The “black national anthem” is ridiculous. First off there isn’t an anthem for any race in the U.S. nor should there be. What about latinos, chinese and all other ethnic groups? Do they get an anthem too? :-)

I woukd rather watch 62 year old episodes of Perry Mason, and I have. Now for prayers and bed. The NFL no longer exists for me.

“Players locked arm-and-arm across the goal line for the Black national anthem.”

I wouldn’t go to a game if they paid me to watch this tripe.

Chiefs? Texans? Sounds like a game of “Cowboys and Indians” like we used to play as kids.

Agree, you’d have to be a real anti-American blockhead to support these overpaid jackasses.

NFL fans appear to boo Chiefs, Texans players during moment of unity before coin toss
The moment was part of the players’ attempt to raise awareness on social justice issues
