Respect for the NFL? Give me a fricking break, how nauseating. It's a fricking game and a declining one at that.

NFL only respects the dollar. They don't give a frick about the players or fans. Let's be honest, it's 32 old white billionaires making the rules.

The NFL only respects the dollar and legal loopholes

I would think players kneeling or sitting is far more divisive than Donald Trump's comments.

I so hope this is sarcasm and not something an adult actually thinks.

That's it I have had it with the NFL- bad enough they have too many teams, diluted product and Free Agency has made a wreck of everything, you don't even know your team year to year anymore. A bunch of a-holes who play a freaking game, making millions of dollars, talking about injustice?? Give me a break! Screw those assholes, I have loved football all my life but these idiots have ruined the game for me- they spend too much time bitching and trash talking than practicing to be better players and it shows on the field!

If I only read that response, I would have no idea what it was referring to. PR statement at its best.

The only thing protecting these sorry asses from the street is the NFLPA. Dont like the USA, go and play in Canada for a 1/4 of the money.

The NFL Corporate's unpatriotic position is why I don't watch the NFL unless the Saint's are in the playoffs or the Super Bowl. Goodell can go F himself!

All the negativity in the NFL. Millionares who act like children and then find. A judge to get them off. Name any average Joe at an average job that can do that.

I wouldn't call race baiting a "force for good" in our communities. Roger, bit of a tip for you, most SJW's don't like football. Cater to their bullshite is going to be a net negative for the NFL.

NFL Owners and Players aren't going to be "scolded" by Trump. Trump's gotta deal with it and move on to important real issues.

I dont give a damn what you bums say.. Its not about the Flag, its about equality and fairness in a country that was never set up for any one other that white folks to be successful and protected.. The problem is that you all are so racial charged, that you couldnt see inequalities, if it slap the shite out of you.. I havent seen any of you speak on the neo-nazi groups trying to bring the times before, during and after the civil rights movement.. yall can say stick to sports, well then yall stick to the jobs yall on and ;eave politics and justice alone... Get a clue bums

Pretty sure this country is set up for all men created equal. If anything the people of color have the stark advantage. Example Black woman with 24 on ACT is accepted to duke while Asian man with 27 on ACT is not. It’s that simple. Stop blaming people for your troubles and better yourself in our great country. We’ve made it easy for you.

Can you honestly say that black people are not allowed to be successful when the players taking the knee are getting millions to play a game. Also, the last president of this country was a black man. That sounds pretty successful to me.
