Nice little business, you have here. Wouldn't want anything to happen to it.

Personally, I don't care. Flush 'em all.

Trump is using these morons for all they are worth. It doesn’t even cost anything.

The NFL was “alinski’ed” by Trump.
Trump took a page right out of their revolution bible and used it to turn the tables on em. Talk about flushing out a covey of quail. The nation can now see just how corrupt, insane, degenerate and poison liberalism really is.

And if I remember correctly the NFL enjoys some sort of tax exemption. Say bye-bye to that. Now they really need to take a knee.

I couldn’t help wondering if this whole anthem protest was a desperate PR stunt to bolster ratings. If so, it is doubly stupid.

If I owned a company that was losing profits, the last thing I’d want to do is alienate my customers. These people invariably sabotage themselves through distorted thinking.

This what happens when a business lets rogues steal their intellectual property.

The players stole the brand of the NFL, and used their storefront as the stage for their own selfish protests. They usurped the goodwill and brand loyalty that the NFL spent generations building, and squandered it on a meaningless protest, based on lies, by a has-been player.

Good luck to the NFL as they recover from their New Coke moment.

From USA Today? Wow!

If the owners weren’t frauds there’d be a bidding war for Kapernick and they’d be actively seeking gay and transgendered players.

Meh. Seen it all before. Be nice if they came up with an original idea once in a while.

Hang a large Union Jack on Ever Bank field in Jacksonville so the Jacksonville Traitors feel more at home and will have a flag they can respect.

NFL spokesman Joe Lockhart said Trump was “out of touch.”

Meanwhile a recent Remington polls shows overwhelming support for Trump’s position.

And NFL’s Joe Lockhart?

Lockhart used to be press secretary and advisor to Bill Clinton, and earlier this year sold his Washington DC house, that he held for three years, to the Obamas - at a profit of about 3 million.

Lets hope all these over paid wealthy AH’s keep mocking, demeaning and defecating on the National Anthem and American tradition and ceremonies.

Please, keep it up NFL!

Yup.

Goodell owns this.

Freeze the target. Isolate the target.

This is getting to be fun, just like Alinsky said it would be!

Just fire the players and begin a state prison football league. The antics would be about the same. The guards could do the commentary for a few overtime bucks.
