Wait, what? "Most vets"? Where did you get your statistic from? Every single man and woman veteran (and active duty) I've crossed paths with has a problem with this.

People want to just watch football at a football game, which includes the pre-game festivities and events. Just do that and keep f'ing politics out of it. That's not an unreasonable position to take. That's why I'm out and not renewing my season tickets again, and what I told the Saints office when I called there Monday.

Ok, we've heard your complaints. We're gonna kneel before the anthem; but we'll be standing for the anthem with our hands over our hearts, just like y'all!

I'm talking about the cleats that the Giants wanted to wear. You can call it what you want but it is a double standard. Why didn't Goodell and the NFL get behind either of those issues?

frick them. I'm close to switching my fanship over this shite.

Can't fricking support this group of thugs. Half of the NFL has had so many criminal charges wiped in order to get to where they are. Truly, frick them.

I'm not too confident a Payton coached team can handle this. Some players will stand then kneel by mistake. Many will stand or kneel too soon.

Maybe these guys are spending too much time on what to do for their protest. If they come out looking like shite on Sunday, doesn't that lend to the idea that they are more concerned with being political mouthpieces than performing their job duties? I just want to watch football and I just want politics to be on Political Talk. Damn I need a safe space.

Citation from "You've Got Male", Happy Endings (TV), Season 1 Episode 9 (2011) blacked out to



This is copied and pasted from The Online Slang Dictionary
(American, English, and Urban slang)
Now I understand that snowflake is a noun in the Merriam-Webster dictionary;however, I was referring to the term as it was being used during the 2016 election which I assumed was the one being used by the poster originally replying to my comment.
