Personally, to me, it’s a smack in the face to patriotic Americans and to our military. After all the kneeling, they should just let it be. We all know they don’t care as an organization. I realize individuals within the nfl care but not the nfl proper. Just my 2 cents. Yea yea yea wrong board.. so what

Why don’t you leave it be? Patriotism comes in all forms.

I don’t leave it be because if nobody mentions the hypocrisy then what does that say? They can kneel and I can’t pass an opinion? Come on boss

I fought in Desert Storm. Have not watched an NFL game since all the b.s. started with kneeling. Nothing against anybody who still watches, but to me it was an insult.

I don't believe you.

And even if that is the case, the NFL is not hurt by your protest, just like it really wasn't hurt by Kaepernick's protest.

Don't really care if you believe me. Don't care if it hurts the NFL, I know it doesn't. I have my feelings and I have stuck with it.

Then what's the point?

It surely isn't out of principal, because the NFL has done more good to represent the flag than bad.

Just seems like foolish pride on your part, probably with a tinge of racism, too.

Since your take seems to be aimed at the NFL and basing it on their “beliefs” you’re missing your own entire point. It isn’t about hypocrisy, they’re doing it because the majority of NFL fans want them to do it. Which is the same reason the kneeling was addressed and essentially stopped. The NFLs fans don’t want that. Their motive is always their bottom line, wake up.

So I am racist because I love my country. Fought for my country. FYI, my wife and kids are not white. Who is the bigot now. People like you will never understand what it is like to leave your family, go fight in a foreign country not knowing if you will ever see your family again. Like I said, I do not hold it against anyone who still watches. I choose not to. Have a good day.
