Why doesn't the NFL just do the national anthem before the teams take the field?

well if it wasn't for the networks (arms of the DEM party), i think this is what they'd do. hell the NFL may strong arm them into it

the SJW reaction to not getting tv time would be amazing

Because the us military pays the NFL millions every year to show of their “patriotism”.

Seems that would solve a lot of problems.


These crybaby attention whore black players will prob get offended and make a scene if that happened though.

Glad I don't give 2 shits about NFL.
Trash league players and fans.

The melt would be glorious. It would also expose the insincerity of the protestors.

Exactly...I've been saying this....take the platform away from them so they actually have to act like real men of concern. If truly concerned, they will have to hit society off the clock (not getting Paid), while on TV and kneeling for 5 mins. That's not activism. That's being an attention whore pussy that is taking advantage of the stage his employer has provided. Go out on your own time and really make a difference if you have something to say. Don't be selfish and ruin America's sundays.

After the Steelers game today they might see that it works.

What's the point of the national anthem at every sporting event anyway? Do we need that much nationalism? We Americans need to chill.

Why do we do the national anthem before sporting events to begin with?

Is it more racist than the NFL or NBA?

because then when the Army played the Navy it would just be weird. But I have no problem taking away the million dollar athletes venue to make football political.
