LOL - so true.

We live in an Alice in Wonderland world. Words mean what someone wants them to mean. People even get fired for using a word that was in my 4th grade Word Power book.

Whores don’t play the National Anthem before a strip show... why should the NFL play it before their games?

The ‘sportsmanship’ thing is something from the past... today’s games are talent and force. Let the half time twerkers put on a mini show before the game starts and leave it at that.

OUTLAW THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AT ALL ‘SPORTING’ EVENTS.

The name Villanueva used was that of a soldier that saved the lives of many of his fellow soldiers while he himself was on fire. He received the Medal of Honor. You are a sad unhappy person.

I’m fine. You simply missed the point...

No names should be on any helmet or uniform for any reason period except the players.

This is a business not a place to protest whatever you want or put your personal feelings out.

You used to play the National Anthem on special occasions. It was so popular, they began playing it before every game.

It is still popular. To stop playing it would be surrender.

Maybe his grandfather had the name, but not his father.

Therefore, he would be “II” instead of “Jr.”.

You’re only a Jr. if you have the same name as your father.

No. His father had the same name as his son.

If his grandfather had that name, his father would have been a junior and he would have been III.
