Wait, the NFL says it wants to protect its players right to free speech?

If so, why did they fine Kaepernick for speech?

The NFL will think of something to blame their falling ratings on.
Just recently they blamed the hurricane coverage.

No doubt Trump's outburst will spur more wealthy black men, whose sole skill to earn millions of dollars is to run around on a football field, to kneel in response. More fans will tune out in response to that. This anthem protest could be the death knell for the NFL.

The response from Trump in Alabama yesterday is exactly what would be expected in North Korea if citizens were protesting peacefully. The name caller in chief is a clown.

This union.. will never back down when it comes to protecting the constitutional rights of our players as citizens as well as their safety as men who compete in a game that exposes them to great risks for money that they make from both sides.

They forgot to add something important. lol They have earned some of that money off those people they don't agree with. I guess easy come easy go.

This is all nonsense. Give it up. If someone doesn't respect or hates their country, that is their right. Let the ratings decide how the population in general feels about it. Personally I couldn't care less. I haven't watched a football game since I was twelve years old living at home (my mom was a fan)... so about 42 years ago. I remember Kenny Stabler, the snake. My mom loved the guy.

Basically sums it up LOL.

Goodness, Trump is such a trash human being. The fact that people voted for a pereon like Trump tells you everything you need to know about his supporters.
