NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Tuesday wrote a letter to all 32 league owners regarding the protests that have taken place during the national anthem, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported. In the letter, which Schefter shared on his Facebook page, Goodell wrote that the “current dispute over the National Anthem is threatening to erode the unifying power of our game, and is now dividing us, and our players, from many fans across the country.” Last year, former San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick sat down and later took a knee during the playing of the national anthem as protest against racial injustice. More players have joined the protests and President Donald Trump spoke out against the activity in September and has continued to do so.

Trump butt raped the entirety of the NFL with 140 characters.


I told y'all in November Twitter would be a weapon of mass destruction.

Why couldn't the NFL owners just vote to remove Goodell?

This. The NFL's initial reaction was to fight Trump and throw their lot in with the SJW hoardes.

They were more scared of the left wing media than the American people and the American people showed them.

A long way of saying, "we're losing money guys ".

Which I'm very happy about, but I still refuse to watch.

"This is what white supremacy and oppression looks like"

Erik Reid..

No sir, this is what private enterprise looks like on your freedom of speech. It's controlled, it's limited when you're at work.
