99% of the players in the National Felon’s League give the other 1% a bad name.

It’s the hip thing to do!

[butlerweave]

Where do these idiots think their pay comes from

[Pearls Before Swine]

If the NFL wants to go the way of the NBA, this is a good way to go about it

[Sarah Barracuda]

Will they protest by not accepting their paycheck

[jimjohn]

Yeah, and I was just saying the NFL didn’t have any real controversy to start off the season...

Anything for ratings, I guess.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie linebacker Myke Tavarres has reversed course and will now stand for the national anthem Thursday after earlier saying he would sit it out in protest.

“He plans on standing for the National Anthem,” Tavarres’ agent, Corey Williams, said in a statement Monday. “Myke does not want to be a distraction to the Philadelphia Eagles organization. Myke’s goal is and will always be to make the Eagles 53-man roster and help the team win a Super Bowl.”

Asked if he advised Tavarres to change his stance, Williams replied: “Yes, I did.

Libs will LUV this. They have been trying to sink the NFL for ages.

NFL seems to be succumbing to PC.

[Steely Tom]

What a nice organization. Spit.

If this is going to be a thing with the NFL, then it is time to bankrupt these bastards.

[TTFlyer]

Somebody needs to tell these professional meatheads the Aesop Fable about the “Golden Goose.”

They are fixin’ to kill it. Dead.

[chris37]

Then I think I’ll take a pass on the NFL.

[Osage Orange]

And the Dallas Cowboys...wanted to place a sticker on their helmets...honoring the fallen Dallas Police men and women...

And the NFL told them no.

[uncitizen]

I don’t think this will go over well even with football fans.

[Hildy]

Let’s see how they handle it. If my tax dollars are paying for their damn stadiums, they will freaking stand for the National Anthem.
