I’m in total agreements with john and appreciate his standing up, again.
Kudos to Cmdr. John Wells!!!!!!!
“[The exception is] the Week Three Game at Carolina when a few of our players did sit,”
The “exception” will do it every time. NFL contract rules are meant to be obeyed, not broken.
Bravo!
The Saints were unable to use this vet to hide behind.
Typical, NFL.
Veteran awards, jet flyovers, military color guards, etc are all nothing but marketing schmaltz to the NFL.
Fake.
BOYCOTT THE NFL!!!™
They should be praising him for his courageous exercise of free speech to protest injustice. Oh, I forgot, that only applies to leftist protests.
Dear N.O. Sluts,
Go to hell.
Take the rest of the nfl with you.
Maybe the “Saints” should put a bounty on his head? They’ve done so before.
Disappointing? I find the veteran INSPIRING.
The disappointing factor is the feckless, bigoted, and anti-American NFL.

I’d really like to see the military and other institutions disassociate themselves with the NFL. CMDR Wells’ action was a great first step.
Birgdog would gladly to 3 a week.
I knew a John Wells in Baton Rouge. He was the official state calligrapher and forged some of the documents in the great escape. I wonder if this is his son?
Sheriff David Clarke: NFL Players Should Tell Chicago ‘Gangbangers’ to ‘Put the Guns Down’

Responding to progressive propagandist Trevor Noah, host of “The Daily Show,” who has been hosting his show from Chicago, where he has been bashing conservatives for highlighting the longtime Democrat-controlled city’s astronomical murder rate, despite having some of the strictest gun control laws in the country, former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clark appeared on FOX Business to discuss not only Chicago but also the anti-American NFL protests against the American flag and the National Anthem.
Sheriff Clarke accused Trevor Noah of trying to downplay Chicago’s murder rate because it sheds a negative light on the Democrat Party and that it’s Obama’s adopted hometown.
“They are trying to find a statistic that takes the ugliness off of this,” Clarke said. “There’s a lot of people here whose hands have been in this including Barack Obama, including [Democrat Chicago Mayor] Rahm Emanuel who’s has thrown the Chicago police department under the bus. There’s the academia with their inane social engineering, soft on crime policies.
You have a lenient court system. But here’s the one common threat that really bothers me that weaves through all of this including the other cities that he [Trevor Noah] tried to hide behind — St. Louis, Chicago or Detroit and Cleveland — black victims, overwhelmingly, black people are slaughtered in the streets in these American cities and the perpetrators are black as well.”
“It is funny to me, and I don’t mean that rhetorically, that when one police officer — and what is it anomaly in the United States — kills a black man –whether armed or not — all of a sudden the town is burned down but these people in these great cities, good people, many of these children, a nine-year-old in the city of Chicago can get gunned down,” Sheriff Clarke said. “And what do we get out of people like Noah and others? Yawns. Black lives matter? Where are they?” he asked.
David Clarke then tied the issue into the NFL protests, stating that if the NFL players truly wanted to make a meaningful difference in the lives of Black Americans, they would go into Chicago in the high crime areas and insist that the “gangbangers” put down their guns and stop shooting people.
“Where is the NFL Players Association? Why aren’t they down in these streets of St. Louis? There is NFL team in Detroit and Cleveland and Chicago. Where are these players? Why aren’t they in the streets asking for calm, if they think this is so simple?
If they think the police are screwing this up and the crazy injustice they’re talking about, why don’t they go down to the City of Chicago and also these other cities and why don’t they ask for peace?
Why don’t they tell these gangbangers, who should be locked up in prison, tell them to put the guns down? No, all we hear is this grandstanding on the NFL sidelines over the National Anthem. This stuff is crazy.”
Fox Business host Liz MacDonald noted at the beginning of the segment that Trevor Noah conveniently left out the fact that 59 people were murdered in the month of September alone — the exact same number who died in the recent Las Vegas mass murder.
Dear Nfl,
We as fans have decided that we are not watching you as a form of protest. Like you are protesting the very small percentage of bad police officers by sitting/kneeling/farting/whatever during the national anthem, we are protesting also.
You may ask what are we protesting? We are protesting the very small percentage of NFL players who beat their wives and girlfriends. We are against violence of women. You say, well that’s not many of us and most of us do great works. We understand that, but that does not seem to factor into your calculations concerning the police. A vast majority of police are fine upstanding citizens who do wonderful things in the community also.
You should be happy concerning our activism. After all, we are just following your lead. Thanks for showing us the way....
[We will not allow Mr. [John] Wells’ decision and subsequent media appearances to distract our players and organization from continuing to honor and support our military and veterans,” the Saints said in a statement Thursday, according to ESPN.]
So according to the Saints Org he’s the enemy now, got it. These idiots are clueless.
FUNFL
