With regard to the Anthem, The Eagles are the patriots and the Patriots are the traitors.

A fitting end to the season.

And yet they have adopted a rap song by Philly native Meek Mills for their team theme song. “Dreams and Nightmares” glorifies the gangster lifestyle.

Chris Long’s SJW regurgitation/refuse to acknowledge President Trump, makes this whole article a moot point.

Ah, No.

“Eagles players who have protested over the past year include Jenkins, safety Rodney McLeod, defensive ends Chris Long and Steven Means and former cornerback Ron Brooks. The players followed the lead of former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who sat and then kneeled during pregame anthems last season”

The Eagles also have about 20 evangelicals on their team.

The fact that we even have to acknowledge something like this while commendable as it may be is a reflection of the sad times in which we live.

I WON'T BE WATCHING.

NO NFL, INCLUDING THE SUPER BOWL.

Good to know the EAGLES have several Christians and that the team never kneeled.

I don't care which team ultimately wins, but I won't mind learning that Tom Terrific won his 6th. I know he works hard for his successes.

I'll just hope for an injury-free game and a game that's free from controversial calls from the refs that effect the final score.

The Eagles have one of the anthem kneeling ringleaders on their team this year.

The NFL keeps trying to burnish its image, and I’m still not listening. I hope the National Felons League fails miserably.

I did not know this fact. Thanks for giving me new respect for my home town team! Fly Eagles Fly. (Though I’m not watching)

I am not watching. Don’t care who wins. The NFL already lost.

Shouldn’t matter which player on which team took a knee or not: what matters is that the NFL, as an organization, supported and condoned the kneelers, so all NFL teams are equally complicit.
