Look when you sign up with a professional team it is your duty to honor your national flag and national anthem when it is displayed and played prior to game commencement..period.
Now if you have problems with your country as an individual, you have every right to show and state your personal feeling. In other words when you are a team member, you join the team in honoring the flag and nation.
When you attend a game that your kids are playing in and, you want to disown your country and flag...that is fine...you are speaking as you, not the team. End of story!!!
I might remind the African-Americans that history shows that African-Americans, slaves or freemen have fought and died for the American nation in every single war this nation has ever fought. They are a 100% part of the historical and present/future culture of these United States of America.
I might also remind them that they supported a POTUS (Obama) that did very little in eight years of office to better the conditions in which many Africans-Americans have to survive in every day they breath air. So much for America’s first Black President, the son of Kenyan Muslim Slave & Sex Traffic Traders in Eastern, Sub Sahara Africa...that still exist, today, and ply their evil, “SLAVE” trades every day that comes and goes.
As for Roger Goddell and his ilk...they have embarked on the same path as the current Democrat Party....destroying themselves internally. The NFL is dying...shucks...I wonder why?
By permitting players to celebrate a play with the Black Power Fist the NFL will soon find the playing field
turned into a war zone between black racists and whites who don’t buy into the racist/anti-American agenda.
