    This will be a demonstration of consistency for my friends on the left. If you guys accept kneeling as a way to peacefully protest something, regardless of who it insults, then you'll support people kneeling for the black national anthem as a way to protest the violence, property damage, assaults, arson, looting and terrorism committed by BLM and their supporters, regardless who it insults, right?

    Or

    Will kneeling for the black national anthem cause outrage, riots and claims that anyone who would do such a thing is a racist?

    Number 2 will happen. Maybe the left will boycott the song because it mentions "God". Oh, so hard to be a leftest these days....on one hand you have racism, on the other hand you have God.

    Everybody and I mean EVERYBODY knows that the only reason for the lockdown 2.0 is to harm the economy and prevent Trump's re-election. These people are sociopaths. They want to harm EVERYBODY just so their man can get the Presidency. Every MSM outlet is pumping the same propaganda and they are banning alternative voices all over social media. They simply will not allow our narrative to get out. We have got to take to the streets to block lockdown 2.0. We need massive numbers of people protesting it. We cannot allow them to destroy the economy.

    The black national anthem huh? So, they have their own country? They’re not Americans? Why do they insist on segregating themselves?

    What about the white national anthem? The Hispanic national anthem? The Native American national anthem? The Asian national anthem? Etc etc. Are black people now superior to other races?

    What a crock of ****. A bunch of rich athletes whining about how terrible their life is.

    Wow, so they are not Americans? Our National Anthem is for EVERYONE, the black anthem is for a certain part of the population and shuts everyone else out, sounds pretty racist to me!

    You can put money on it that if anyone kneels for the black national anthem, all hell would break loose...

    You silly honkeys, they are AFRICAN-Americans. No doubt the Ashanti tribe has some type of song they can highjack like the Kente cloth Queen Nancy wore in the halls of Congress. Maybe some old school NWA?

    Lift Every Voice and Sing, Way too long and complicated to sing at a sporting event, takes about 4 minutes to sing the whole song. Whitney Houston tried to sing it once and forgot the words one line into the song.

    How about some beastie boys?

    Doesn't really matter to me at this point, I had already penciled this season in as a no-go for me based on the anthem crap, I doubt I'll miss it, i didn't the last time i took a season off. nba isn't far behind

    I want sports not politics, and I'll happily skip sports if they feel differently.

    What's the scoop on hockey?

    I'm waiting patiently as well, but I don't think there are definite dates yet..... I hear more NBA players are testing positive. I'm not optimistic.

    On topic, I find an additional anthem a little silly, but I couldn't care less if somebody kneels or not... I'm sure some white racists are considering it however.

    I agree with the poster earlier who said the NFL could be starting without fans to begin with...

    And then there's the completely uniformed, claiming any continuing lockdowns are political....

    Baseball is a mess as well.

    Executives have to be worried that if they skip a season that fans won't come back under normal circumstances, people find other interests, put this anthem crap back on the map and the problem grows worse.

    I'm confused why someone has to be racist to kneel for an anthem, are all kneelers racist now or just the ones that kneel for anthem #2?

    And are you "not listening" which is what i'm being accused of doing when I say "dont dis my flag bro" apparently you can kneel for whatever fkn reason you want and people are expected to understand.

    If people feel that strongly about protesting, then sure, let them kneel.

    If somebody has a stated valid reason for kneeling for anthem #2, go for it... I'd love to see those put into print..

    Kaepernick came out and said why he was kneeling... Will any others?

    Sure, Maybe kneeling for aborted babies.

    That sounds like a fun subject during pre-game doesnt it?

    It's simple for me, keep the crap out of my sports or I will just skip it and do something else, no hard feelings. I'll just stop.

    There are plenty of options out there for activities.

    When fans are allowed to come back, let only black people in as paying customers.

    See how much money the "brothers" make then.

    Well, that would at least be a purpose....

    Remember, that the National Anthem is rarely even televised as a part of your sports watching activities.... If it bothers you, just tune in at the kickoff, or tip off, or first pitch, or puck drop...

    Nah, that's like suggesting that if you dont like trumps tweets, don't follow him on twitter.

    I'm ok without sports if, they cant keep it to sports. Dont worry, I wont trash a target store, I'll just do something else that I prefer to do like take the boat out or tinker in the garage. Watch one of the dozen shows on netflix, lots of other options for me as an audience member.

    It's not just them complaining about their shortcomings, it's the fact that they blame me for them.

    I have a piece of advice for the blacks. If you wish to be treated equally, be equal.

    There are no ideals involved. It is all genetic -- innate.
    A great opportunity to get out into nature and enjoy Autumn!! Make it family tradition!
