Or just let them continue what they are doing It's grown men, people need to quit getting so butt raped about it. Most of these players that have been interviewed, even Kaepernick have stated how much they respect the flag and their country. Most of them are trying to get their point across and if it upsets people then it gets people talking. Most of them also donate tons of money and time into helping kids make better choices.
I would never sit for the anthem, ever, at least as long as I"m able to stand. Just like most republican Trump lovers aren't neo-nazi racists, most people who are bringing awareness for minority issues aren't wanting your paycheck to buy themselves beer. It's insane how much a handful of players sitting with their hands over their hearts on a roster of 45 (game day) players can make life long Saints fans turn in their cards.
The awareness they are wanting to bring is bigger than Trump, or the R and D parties. Sure there may be better ways to do it, but it's the choice they made to do it this way. When it comes down to it, I only care about the 4 quarters of football and who wins the game.

I understand they are grown men and have the right to do as they please so long as it is peaceful. What I am saying is that I am tired of this being a HEADLINE in football. I turn on ESPN and they talk about kneeling and protesting and it really turns me off - as well as many other people. I will always watch the Saints, protest or no protest.
This whole kneeling thing is so over analyzed and brought up. For just football purposes and as a fan, I want to get back to the game. Every single interview topic is about the protest; not whether a qb had the game of his life and threw for 300 and 3 tds. The first question is, "what is your take on the president and the protest going on around the league?" I am over it, so are a lot of people, for it or against it. Just move on. The easiest solution is just to keep the players in the locker room until this mess blows over.

Trump is a calculating orange a-hole, who interjected a throwaway line in a speech in Alabama (go figure) to get people talking about this "issue" (non-issue) to throw red meat to his hardcore idiotic base, and thereby draw attention away from his Russian problem. Nothing more. That lousy frick ain't foolin' this cat for a New York minute.
