Fuck Twitler.

I don't think he called for a boycott. He stated his opinion which at least half of this country agrees with. The NFL is losing fan base. Some do to this kneeling but not all. They have no problem telling players what they can & can't wear on the field, what kind of end zone celebration they can do and they will suspend or fine a player for conduct off the field if it is considered detrimental to the league. So the NFL can and IMO should put an end to this stupid disrespect of the flag. If you don't want to stand for the anthem then stay in the locker room. If this continues and the fan base dwindles then the next TV contract will be less. Less TV money means lowers salaries for the players.

This bullshit will Colin Kapernick is pretty fucking funny. The POS started this crap and now can't find a job. Not because of this but because he isn't good enough for a team to put up with his shit. If it was Tom Brady or any other top player in the league you can bet your ass they would have a job.

Get your shit together SHITLIPS.

National Anthems have been played at ball games for my lifetime and some fool waits until 2017 to decide it offends him ... now joined by the Super Fool ... wtf (lower case on purpose) .. because his case is about as low as one can get.

National Anthem:
Ok 2016
OK 2015
OK 2014
OK 2013
OK .... Every year since 1931 after AN ACT OF CONGRESS!

And PunchHead WTF ... is offended by it!!!

You are an "ass," right?

I generally try to do that for females ..

... you are female, right?

So trump has basically called to boycott the nfl till they make everyone stand for the NA. I'm all for standing and I was not for the whole taking a knee thing... till yesterday. When he spoke at that rally with such anger over someone taking a knee called them SOB. I won't be standing either anytime soon. I will just take my seat. Its a sad day. For me I think all black millionaire athletes should sit out the Olympics as well. Originally Posted by Trey

SO as long as it continues, I WILL Exercise MY First amendment rights, and not watch another NFL/NBA/NHL/MLB Game, BUY ANY Sports related gear, and boycott every company that sponsors those teams...

"If a player wants the privilege of making millions of dollars in the NFL,or other leagues, he or she should not be allowed to disrespect our Great American Flag (or Country) and should stand for the National Anthem. If not, YOU'RE FIRED. Find something else to do!"

He clearly confused the NFL and America with Melania. And Kap for a slave. Bought and paid for. Originally Posted by Vivienne Rey

If so, why SHOULDN'T the NFL have the power to dictate to the players "IF You wish to continue playing for us, then when you are representing the team, you WILL STAND and respect the anthem."??

Exactly what are these players protesting?

Surely it is the ongoing slaughter of young Black Men in large Cities.

One particular City now has over 400 deaths this year and ten times that many wounded.

I stand by these players kneeling in protest of this venomous activity. Originally Posted by Jackie S

Hopefully all the teams will sit in unity ... a big Fuck you to Trump and his racially motivated hate speech.

that would show how great this country....our fucking president pressures you to do something and you say 'Fuck Off' without fear of being fired. This sounds exactly like wtf he tried with the former FBI Director.

Fuck Trump and his intimidation tactics. The NFL are standing up to that cocksucker and are the true Patriots. Originally Posted by WTF

And hopefully ALL Military shows THEIR patriotism and makes the entire NFL personal non grata!

If free speech is only for non players, then he should have told the fans to get off their fat ass and phone and stand. Originally Posted by bamscram

I've actually Done that before. GOtten in an ungrateful kids ass before, cause he refused to get off his fat ass, and stop tweeting on his phone when the BASE's national anthem was playing while he was sitting outside the Commissary. And you know what, the POP of that kid thanked me for doing so.

Thought Trump is part of the government now. However you may be right and he isn't. Originally Posted by bamscram

How exactly is Trump wrong here, when he's telling OTHER americans to exercise THEIR free speech rights and totally IGNORE/Boycott the NFL?

Wow.. YET MORE reason to boycott the NFL.. TILL THEY STOP being such a haven for criminal thugs..

"Cont next post"

And to me the fact the owners seem not only unwilling to Take such action, but seem to be praising all the players doing so, IS DEFACTO Condoning of it..

This bullshit will Colin Kapernick is pretty fucking funny. The POS started this crap and now can't find a job.

BUT to all those libtard nay sayers on this site, i wonder if they feel THAT IS ok, to tell a team who they WILL hire, but its not ok to tell players "if you wish to stay sitting or kneeling for the anthem, then you can sit on the bench the entire season.. you are suspended"

Best idea to date. Apparently there's no rule that says the teams have to be on the field during the anthem. Let them throw their little temper tantrums in the locker room. Nobody wants to see that shit anyway. Originally Posted by gfejunkie

When i heard about that entire team doing that, i was seething inside, and would have LAUGHED my ass off if one of the refs had, just before the kick off said..
"Sorry folks, but as per rule XYZ-ABC-123, if a team is not out on the field for the anthem, their team has forfeited the match.. The opponents thus win!. Go home".

It's the fault of the league and the coaches ..... the league doesn't have the balls to tell the camera guys to not show the one's sitting down ..... and the coaches don't have the balls to say "If you sit for the national anthem, you don't play in the game ..... and if you do it again next game you're cut from the team" ..... if the players don't believe in showing support for our country, let them find another job and actually go work for a living .....

It's Lincoln's fault.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

0zombies have wanted the NFL gone for a long time. Just like the dimorat statues. I'm for letting it happen!

FUCKEM! NBA is next!

One of the few NFL players who have served his country. He has it right.
