Sounds petty, and republican.

BLM kneelers sound racist, anti-police, unpatriotic, ineffective, and democrat.

Well some of you have the SNARKY and many of you just want to attack me.

But I don’t see many proposals to the problem.

Have some fun, channel your inner snark. Propose a solution to a problem that doesn’t seem to be going away.

Says the guy that really wants others around here to like him. You care a lot. You very much want people around here to tell you you’re a good poster.

hear you, and like you, I don’t give a shite what they do, but the media plays it up every week and portrays those guys as some sort of heroes. It’s actually pretty difficult to act like it doesn’t happen.


I ignore the media as well. Netflix is far more entertaining than watching the news, and ESPN's non-live programming hasn't centered on sports for nearly a decade now. Stop watching, its really, really, really easy.

All of the information that you want regarding sports news is available online in a more accessible, more direct, and more effective manner

You're an idiot. Go back in your hole for another three years. I'm older than dirt. I'm past the point of impressing people and couldn't care less about my image with loons like you.

These morons need to be educated first and foremost. The liberals hijacked the players and the players were so dumb and uneducated on the issue they believed whatever the Libtards told them to do.

That's because it isn't a problem.

Ignorant athletes supporting causes they cant even articulate or define is not new. They are paid entertainment. If they aren't entertaining you, stop watching.

Ignore it and just do you. Just like burning a flag. If no one gets shook up about it, there’s really no point in burning one.

I just dont give a shite about what other people do that doesnt impact my life in any way, shape or form.

Kneeling during the anthem? It is just as much their right as it is yours to stand at attention.

I think the attention whores are gonna kneel regardless, so let them get penalized monetarily and then send the monies to some wounded warrior type of charity to assist those who don't even have a knee to kneel on from defending these aggrieved multi-millionaires.

The NFL has 2 options.
Tell the racist, unpatriotic, police hating player to toe the company line, on company time, and on the company stage. And allow them to act like arses on their time and their stage.
That is, suspend kneelers from 2 games and dock pay. Put this crap behind them and get on with the BUSINESS of football.

Or cave to the small number of arseholes and lose tons of cash from attendance, viewers, and property loses.

Empty stands, and low tv ratings. If that doesn't get them to separate politics from the game, maybe down the road, the XFL can become a viable competitor.

We don't need to do anything. This is a matter between the NFL owners and their employees.
