Their strategy seems to be, claim that Trump is attacking the NFL itself and every single player, completely bogus crap like that.

That of course is complete bullshite. Trump is clearly calling out specific players doing a specific thing, disrespecting the anthem.

But the NFL can't talk about that, so hey have to straw man the hell out of it.

Goodell will eat this up because it takes attention away from his other terrible decisions

Trump commands all the attention int he world, he can stop the world with a single tweet.

He can hold the NFL's feet to the fire as much as he want.

He needs to just keep hammering their inability to address the anthem issue.

the NFL is fixing to SJW themselve out of a few more ratings points. Goodell is pandering but nobody likes him anyway. He would keep his mouth shut if he knows whats good for him.

Frick Goodell.

Wants to talk about how Trump's rhetoric is divisive.

Kaep started the divisiveness over a year ago!

Just play ball you clowns. Don't they get that responding to Trump brings him pleasure?

Like I said before white folks good at deflecting. Now it's just 2 of them who are good at it, doing it to each other.

Breaking up with the NFL has been one of the best relationship decisions I have ever made.

My entertainment time and dollars are well spent elsewhere.

They're providing a public service.

I want both Trump and his supporters 100% focused on the NFL for as long as possible.

They think they can virtue signal by bashing Trump to win PR points. They have no idea the values and beliefs of the average NFL fan. Absolutely clueless.

Yep. Trump should've shut the frick up instead of pandering to the crowd in Alabama.
He just galvanized the entire league. Kap's kneeling became so much more powerful because of trumps big fricking mouth
