If they lock arms isn’t that disrespectful? They will not have their right arm free to place their hand over their heart.
Ditto
>Before not during anthem<
According to Hannity, he got up for the anthem, accompanied by a whopping 2 players.
My tag line says what I think.

All I can say about that “before Anthem” nonsense is..Don’t pee on my feet and tell me it’s only water!
So the FR Cowboy fans that are screaming (posting all-caps) that Cowboys had hand over hearts were wrong...Instead they linked arms...
And Jones did not say he would fire anyone kneeling.
The American public has spent more than $7 billion dollars to build or renovate NFL stadiums, taking on 46 percent of the total costs of those projects. Meanwhile the NFL does not pay taxes. They haven’t since the forties.
In 2015 there was a a deal brokered with the government under President Obama whereby the NFL could give up their official tax exempt status – for the sake of public appearances – but they could still get away with paying no tax.
Speak to any high end corporate tax accountant. They simply don’t understand how the NFL gets away with it. “Its just the way it is. The NFL doesn’t pay tax. They could literally close their doors and disapear without a trace because they literally do not have a tax footprint. They dont even file.“
NFL players are also a protected species, having been granted special rights that don’t apply to ordinary high-earners in society. By being allowed to be taxed under the special “entertainer” tax bracket, NFL players save millions every year, and the public purse is worse off.
In the case of the NFL, the super rich have been allowed to set up a socialist utopia for themselves, operating outside the rules and spirit of the American mainstream.
