What is your proposal to get NFL kneelers to stand up for Star Spangled Banner?

I have two:

1) Have band run drum role with TV cameras on kneelers, crowd booing until the stand up. Start words to the song only after the stand up.

2) Have singer stand immediately in front of kneelers shaking their finger a the as they sing.

I know this will never happen. But maybe one of your snarky ideas will.

I'd be more interested in why you think this is important

3. Keep the teams in the locker room.

I’m done. They couldn’t do anything to make me watch again. If the product was excellent that’s one thing, but the product sucks and it’s political. Screw that.

Simple answer, IGNORE THEM. It is literally the only thing that will work. All the stupid ideas just call more attention to them, which is what they want.

Have the NFL pay back us taxpayers for breaking their contract.

The report found the Department of Defense had spent $6.8 million on what they called "paid patriotism" between 2012 and 2015. This money was spread out among 50 pro teams from the NFL, NBA, MLB, NASCAR, MLS and others.Sep 25, 2017

My proposal is to not give a shite, or give it any attention at all.

Nothing could be more meaningless than what paid entertainers do during a song. Nothing.

It blows my mind that anyone gives this issue, or any non-sport action of athletes, a single moments thought

I’d bet anything you’re watching week one.

You’re all such giant bitches on this site now. Everything offends you, you whine nonstop, and you absolutely cannot let people live their lives without thinking you need to involve yourselves in it in someway.

No one gives a frick what any of you think. You’re never going to bring the NFL to their knees with your silly aggravations and contrived grievances.

Nothing because I'm not a snowflake who gets upset about what other people do.

The US government is buying patriotism displays.

I hear you, and like you, I don’t give a shite what they do, but the media plays it up every week and portrays those guys as some sort of heroes. It’s actually pretty difficult to act like it doesn’t happen.

Seriously, congratulations on one of the most beta threads ever.

The NFL has hurt your feeling.
