    Im guessing thr NFL is in their war room as we speak trying to fix this before next weekend. If it continues they can kiss their advertisement dollars goodbye.

    and in imagination land NFL ratings went up 10% and not down? That sounds like a nice place for the left to escape reality for a while.

    who is going to feel the hurt most is the networks broadcasting the games
    they based their biding on the last years ratings but commercials that buy ad spots go with current ratings so if the add income doesn't match the networks bidding price they lose money through out the full season if ratings don't turn around

    Obama was doing the same (echoing the thoughts of many americans) when he said that cop acted like a dumbass. He was rightly criticized as well.

    Kaepernick was barely relevant anymore. Thank you Trump for putting his message directly in front of everyone instead of allowing Americans to put their head in the sand, yet again.

    Yes and yes. Beer Summit anyone -- or have Obama worshipers blanked that aspect of his presidency from their minds? Obama was a professionally trained radical leftist race baiter and race agitator.

    I'm not watching the Dallas Cowboys tonight on Monday Night Football. I'm having my own personal hissy fit. I don't usually believe in boycotts, but I just don't want to watch the NFL after this past weekend with the players' actions.

    If you think President Trump has made a political blunder, rethink that. A majority agree with him, particularly a majority of Republicans and middle of the roaders. Politicizing football games by millionaire black football players being cheered by the Democratic Party and the liberal MSM does not help the Democratic Party.

    NASCAR got it right. People are coming to escape the drudgery of their lives to be able to relax and watch some team sporting event as an outing, not a political protest against the police that those millionaire players. AND for the eternal Democratic purpose of non-stop accusing people of being racists, even calling them murdering racists, ie the police.

    "No politics, just sports."

    You know that 60 percent of the people of PR having no running water and power is out for almost the whole island and will be for many many months at best.

    Trump does not seem to care to anywhere near the same degree as the actions of the football players

    My suggestion therefore is that we should set up a fund to bring all 4 millions US citizens and voters to the US mainland and settle then into the red states before the next election.

    Why bother Trump with the need to oversee a relief effort on the island when he had more important things to worry about like professional football?

    No the police and the court system started this with the police shootings unarmed blacks and the courts not convicting the officers for doing so.

    Those rich black players are not immune to being killed by nerve police officers during routine traffic stops anymore the any other black citizen.

    Except for the FACT that the NFL AND the owners of the teams in the NFL do not believe that their players are saying F America. Only narrow minded trump loving nitwits believe in that nonsense.

    After 2009, the players were forced to go out on the field for the Anthem. The Pittsburgh Steelers didn't go out on the field at all, and the Trump loving nitwits acted like they commited an act of war. LOL

    Yes. It must have been last year because he hasn't played this year.

    Lefty is looking at you as if you're from another planet. He doesn't understand the concept.

    I don't want them prosecuted, but I sure don't support them. They can kneel all they want off the field. On the field, it's just offensive.
