So they can kneel and speak their mind but holy shite if someone else has a different view...

That's the way it works with them. Notice how they never mention than Colon Kap had a unsportsmanlike call for calling another player a "****", but that's ok for him to say

It's fine if they want to kneel. Its also fine if people want to criticize, that's their right. I'll bet you my mortgage Nantz has to apologize for his views. Freedom of speech doesn't apply to white males. People need to get that through their head.

So you are confused about freedom of speech. Nantz's employer has every right to restrict his speech--the government doesn't have that right.

True, but I think his point is that only white males ever have to apologize for making statements like this.

Jim's 100% correct. Nothing to apologize. These guys are just classic attention whores.

And at 7:55 in the morning on military bases across the globe, people in uniforms scatter like ants when they hear the first call for colors...

Royal Tiger I been saying saying this since day one, I was one of them I seen E-7's thru O-7's stand by the door looking at their watch waiting on colors and retreat to play so they don't have to stand at attention.

"how many people have died for that flag and anthem" This is "supposed" to be a Christian nation yet how many millions have died in the name of this country? THOU SHALT NOT KILL and LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR is forgotten in the name of the Military Industrial Complex...$$$ is what runs this country.

He has the first amendment right to criticize those who bring profanely false accusations against our country!

Lets see if your employer has the sense to allow you freedom of speech like the NFL is allowing these idiots to protest the National Anthem. I suspect the pos network you work for will try and be politically correct. Best wishes Jim

The rest of the NFL owners should follow Jerry Jones in what he told his players, coaches and other personnel of the Dallas Cowboys.

You obviously are not a Saints' fan, because they would NEVER say anything positive about the Dallas Cowboys.

This is what they used to do. It's a recent "tradition" of large patriotic displays before football games, funded by the military. There's plenty of information out there for anyone interested in researching. They're not trying to hide it.

That's how it use to be but the armed forces started paying the NFL to have this whole shindig with cameras in the players faces. Players use to be in locker room be for the Anthem. Good I idea though.

I'm not offended that he kneels. I'm pissed that we give a forum and accept any support of Blm and the baseless allegations against the police in the situations they refer to. That is not the same as confederate statues some of which weren't the slightest bit racist. Ulysses Grant was a very vocal abolitionist long before the war for instance.

Too bad some femmeboy writer for Salon is going to destroy Jim's life, family, and career over this.

kapernick is kneeling because of his conversion to islam this past summer. The Anthem was completed directly after the US Marines defeated the Barbary (muslim) Coast pirates.

Idiots they are. They're free to go back to where their ancestors came from. Try Somalia, or Zimbabwe, or Chad, or any number of those African countries. The U.S.A. ain't so bad after all but groups like black lives matter and the naacp and those racists retards are Africanizing America. Eventually there'll be another Civil War.

Thanks for your honesty and courage. The NFL viewership is down a significant 10% and the Washington Post explains that away as a trend-without a mention of viewer disdain for unthankful players as a contributory cause. At least we have one honest, objective, unbiased member of the news media.
