The author of this article is Ted Noel, who is the physician who did the various videos on Hillary’s possible Parkinson disease.
Interesting. I was not allowed to join Cub or Boy Scouts so am observer in this. I have suggested no to my boys because they now have homosexual scout leaders. Whether they accept girls or not, I guess I really don’t care. Better they join boy scouts than girl scouts.
No. But hopefully WE know what its about. A bunch of ignorant slum rats being given an opportunity in America to make millions of dollars on the dime of patriot Americans so they can insult them publicly at their so called “games”.
Thanks in no little part to Trump, who was man enough to condemn these creeps and the angry public, they are now ( just SOME of them mind you) trying to make nice so they don’t loose those lucrative commercial endorsements and ticket sales.
If you are a football fan and give a rat’s butt about your country, you will turn your back on these ingrates and never go back until the NFL is replaced as an organization by something that doesn’t tolerate this disgrace on the playing field.
The root of the problem, and the reason why the damage is irreparable. The majority of NFL fans are finally waking up to the fact that the majority of NFL players hate their guts.
As far as I'm concerned it's way too late. The mask has dropped and I see the players for who they are. They hate folks like me. Why should I support those who hate me and what I stand for? I'm done with the NFL for good.
To hell with every one of these overpayed, spoiled morons who took a knee and to hell with every NFL team who allowed that to go unpunished.
I’m done with the NFL. If it spreads to other sports then I’m done with them too.
Besides, Sunday’s a great day to play golf.
The NFL thought it’s PC garbage was going to impress the fans-it was wrong!
Noel is correct in this in all respects but these black football players are Hillary voters, BLM Supporters and contributors, Antifa Supporters and America Haters and they really and truly don’t know WHY in their own little walnut brains. There’s not but one rule that’s gonna work to save the NFL if your a person who wants to save it and as usual Trump nailed it and that is “get this son of a bitch off the field”..................if he takes a knee.
Trust me. If it comes down to millions in THEIR pockets they will kiss anybody’s butt and do what they are told! Some attorneys will then file lawsuits and years after the NFL files for bankruptcy the issue “legally” will be settled in a hallway outside a courtroom in NYC or some major city somewhere (at the convenience of the attorneys and they will want to pick the right judge).
The author does a good job of pinpointing a big underlying piece of what’s going on here. At the surface this is about a difference of opinion as it relates to the Anthem, the Flag and the Country. But beneath that, there’s also the fact that so many blacks have been brainwashed into racism against whites, and so you have the bizarre spectacle of mostly white NFL fans rooting for players who hate them. As long as that stays buried under the surface, it can go on, but when it’s surfaced into the daylight? Unsustainable.
And this is in PITTSBURGH!
I know what the NFL is: dead to me.
Dear NFL Player:
“You graduated high school in 2011. Your teenage years were a struggle. You grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. Your mother was the leader of the family and worked tirelessly to keep a roof over your head and food on your plate.
Academics were a struggle for you and your grades were mediocre at best. The only thing that made you stand out is you weighed 225 lbs and could run 40 yards in 4.2 seconds while carrying a football. Your best friend was just like you, except he didn’t play football. Instead of going to football practice after school, he went to work at McDonalds for minimum wage to help out his family.
You were recruited by all the big colleges and spent every weekend of your senior year making visits to universities where coaches and boosters tried to convince you their school was best. They laid out the red carpet for you. Your best friend worked double shifts at Mickey D’s. College was not an option for him. On the day you signed with Big State University, your best friend signed paperwork with his Army recruiter. You went to summer workouts. He went to basic training.
You spent the next four years living in the athletic dorm, eating at the training table. You spent your Saturdays on the football field, cheered on by adoring fans. Tutors attended to your every academic need. You attended class when you felt like it. Sure, you worked hard. You lifted weights, ran sprints, studied plays, and soon became one of the top football players in the country.
Your best friend was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division. While you were in college, he deployed to Iraq once and Afghanistan twice. He became a Sergeant and led a squad of 19 year old soldiers who grew up just like he did. He shed his blood in Afghanistan and watched young American men give their lives, limbs, and innocence for the USA.
You went to the NFL combine and scored off the charts. Your hired an agent and waited for draft day. You were drafted in the first round and your agent immediately went to work, ensuring that you received the most money possible. You signed for $16 million although you had never played a single down of professional football. Your best friend re-enlisted in the Army for four more years. As a combat tested sergeant, he will be paid $32,000 per year.
You will drive a Ferrari on the streets of South Beach. He will ride in the back of a Blackhawk helicopter with 10 other combat loaded soldiers. You will sleep at the Ritz. He will dig a hole in the ground and try to sleep. You will “make it rain” in the club. He will pray for rain as the temperature reaches 120 degrees.
On Sunday, you will run into a stadium as tens of thousands of fans cheer and yell your name. For your best friend, there is little difference between Sunday and any other day of the week. There are no adoring fans. There are only people trying to kill him and his soldiers. Every now and then, he and his soldiers leave the front lines and “go to the rear” to rest. He might be lucky enough to catch an NFL game on TV. When the National Anthem plays and you take a knee, he will jump to his feet and salute the television. While you protest the unfairness of life in the United States, he will give thanks to God that he has the honor of defending his great country.
To the players of the NFL: We are the people who buy your tickets, watch you on TV, and wear your jerseys. We anxiously wait for Sundays so we can cheer for you and marvel at your athleticism. Although we love to watch you play, we care little about your opinions until you offend us. You have the absolute right to express yourselves, but we have the absolute right to boycott you. We have tolerated your drug use and DUIs, your domestic violence, and your vulgar displays of wealth. We should be ashamed for putting our admiration of your physical skills before what is morally right.
But now you have gone too far. You have insulted our flag, our country, our soldiers, our police officers, and our veterans. You are living the American dream, yet you disparage our great country. I am done with NFL football and encourage all like minded Americans to boycott the NFL .”

So yeah, it really does matter what the fans think. And it's really stupid to insult them and lie about it later. NFL delenda est.
The first sentence at the link says: “Now ‘taking a knee’ means protesting something.”
For millenia taking a knee has always meant subservience, surrender.
Sack or pick and his followers can’t even get the basis of their acting out right.
