Its safe to say, that when NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell wrote a memo to the league informing them it was time to move past the anthem controversy. Most people thought he meant moving past it by ending the protests, and, as a result, ending the controversy. However, a disturbing nugget of information from todays meeting suggests that Goodell might have meant something else entirely.
ESPNs Sal Paolantonio caught up with Goodell after the four-hour meeting with the owners and player representatives. Paolantonio asked Goodell if the league had asked the players to commit to standing for the anthem. Goodells response, did not inspire confidence.

Now imagine DeMaurice Smith flushed with millions of additional dollars in blackmail money from NFL owners who are willing to pay anything to make the Kaepernick-clones go away.
Nah, I think I’ll just CONTINUE to not watch.
I’ll make my FootballNonWatching into a proud marker of my patriotism.
And I’m REALLY patriotic.

The NFL must be destroyed to save football.
The whole point of this article seems to be please watch NFL football anyway. No sale! .
The NFL is dead. It hasn’t registered with the fools yet. Political Correctness is blurring their thinking.
“DeMaurice Smith”
English?...
Face it. Goodel runs an amusement enterprise on behalf of owners that has a fundamental structural problem that is now clearly in the open. A large percentage of the entertainers hired have a deep loathing for the customers and their values. Goodel knows he loses customers by doing nothing but , he and his partners have concluded that disciplining the entertainers would have a more detrimental effect on income than by patronizing the entertainers and losing up to 25% of the customers and viewers. Goodel is is not a man of principle.
Heres what I conclude from this. The NFL has decided they have less of a problem if they lose this segment of their fans. The players are happier. The MSM will rally to them. The SJW class will back off on their critisism. They hope to remake a newer hipper NFL. Who needs a bunch of largly aging White Guys in Flyover Country?
These people apparently don’t understand that once a fan misses a few games he or she gets used to it and loses interest.
Because it’s, like, RACIST, to be told to work for things you want.
