Jim Nantz Caught On Hot Mic Criticizing Players Kneeling During Anthem

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.

Good job jim. Just saying what everyone else that's not a pathetic crybaby thinks.

GOOD

Eric Reid best move is kneeling just when it counts. He did it against Clemson to loose a bowl game for the Tigers in Atlanta. Only wish his parents instilled better judgement and values.

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

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.

I like Nantz more already. #boycottNFL

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

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.

When they ask everyone to stand for the anthem, they should also say "and if you want to truly pay respect to this great country, feel free to kneel before the flag of Liberty."

Do the anthem before the athletes come in the stadium....Problem solved.

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

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.

The problem is WHY they are kneeling. It has a stated reason, that is very offensive to a lot of us.

Do you people stand up when the National Anthem is playing at home, or do you sit there in your underwear continuing to eat your Cheetos like every one else? People seriously need to get over this no-issue. They're kneeling to get attention about the thing they care about. And guess what, it's working.

1. Of course they will do it while the cameras are rolling...what's the sense in protesting if no one is looking? 2. Why is Jim talking during anthem? these protests continues to be a story because people make it out to be a story. Nothing will come of it

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.

Good for Nantz.

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