    Speaking of weak...

    Nope, but it appears that many in the NFL are still struggling to figure that out...

    We can't stand here and say that what Trump said is okay, while criticize Obama for being unprofessional at times. What Trump said was clearly unprofessional whether we agree with the message or not.

    I had a friend throw them like a frisbee and I did a little skeet shooting. I just didn't enjoy listening to those bitches anymore like I dont enjoy watching football now.

    Trump is not a professional as in not a professional politician. He talks like the rest of us and the rest of us find that refreshing.

    Trump has always despised the NFL. This "crisis" is a win win - for Trump.

    In many cases, yes. In this case, it's idiotic. This whole thing was dying out. Kaepernick was never getting signed. TV panels stopped hovering over the kneelers.

    Then he had to go and say this

    Lmao! Gotta love those honey do's... Mine have all been done so I got an antique RCA Victorola record player cabinet working that I'd gotten out of my fiance's 98 year old grandmother's house when she passed away 2 years ago. I found a 1973 Hank Williams Jr. record that I never even knew existed... I listened to that record about 6 times on that old player.

    Trump is positioned on the side of The Star Spangled Banner.

    The hostile professional sports industry is, as usual, standing on quick sand. Idiots.

    " NFL star Aaron Hernandez was a member of the Bloods street gang and was disciplined for having gang paraphernalia, according to newly released documents related to the investigation into his prison suicide.

    A death report released Friday lists the Bloods under Hernandez's gang profile and says Hernandez was disciplined for having "STG" paraphernalia. In prison, "STG" stands for Security Threat Group, a euphemism for gangs"

    He did condemn them, don't you remember? It made you people so mad that he called the other group out too, that you claimed he defended the white nationalists. You and others like you are the problem, not Trump.

    Anti American salute a piece of cloth but don't honor the ideals behind it. The right is all about idolatry and symbolism but not ideals. Note the crickets to the question whether or not majority of Americans ever stand up for the flag ceremony from the comfort of their own homes. Fake patriots.

    ...and rich thanks to all who support them , paying any price to see them play. :)

    ...and nothing will stop football, it is a god to some and even Trump supporters will NOT give up their football.....NO one will give up football enough to have any impact :)



    I don't know what that as to do with the post of mine you quoted but no, "mothers" won't stop football anymore than they stopped drunk drivers.

    I don't know what CTE is...


    Football has been around a long, long with controversies and scandals and survived them all.

    But the biggest reason that it will stay is because wealthy people get wealthier off of it...it will stay.

    Liberals are forcing the public to choose between respect for America or a bunch of pampered ungrateful athletes

    Liberals are ruining a great national sport

    Trump was elected to stir the pot and shake things up. This is him doing that. We couldn't just keep knuckling under to this crap.

    Aren't you one of the main people on this forum that always says people have the right to say and do what they want, but actions have consequences?

    You don't seem to be so favorable to that position when a white man boycotts something. Why are you inconsistent when it doesn't involve the right race for you?

    With all due respect, you are showing the brainwashing has worked. The anthem is NOT about those who have paid for our freedom, it about love of country. Thankful for living in this country. To turn this protest into a disrespect of the military is dishonest. You may think it's about those who fought and died but you would be wrong and that's why you have a problem when the protest is about racial injustice it doesn't compute to you.

    Anyone on your job ever broke the law?

    Dude, you're not understanding. There was nothing to knuckle under. That **** was dying out and old news. Stirring the pot in this case was only good for bringing it back up.

    Stupid move
