It looks like the NFL owners are as disrespectful as their players. I strongly urge all patriotic Americans to continue to boycott the NFL by not attending games or watching televised NFL games. I also urge the continued boycotting of any business that advertises via the NFL.
I watched faithfully since 1969- no longer. Total disrespect by the players- regardless whether they "mean it" or not. Goodell and the owners are too cowardly to stand up to the players. Hope the ratings, attendance and sponsors keep decreasing! Why don't they protest NFL players beating up women- I guess that cause doesn't mean much to the players!
Me to, well around 1968 actually. The NFL is being cowardly. They value their players more than their customers (fans/viewers).
But since you (all of a sudden) patriots care so much about the disrespect of the flag, start boycotting anyone or anything that inappropriately uses the flag as apparel or merchandise, such as on shirts and beer cans.
That's likely how the Confederate States of America felt when they waged war against the United States of America.
Look how that turned out. The CSA fought over their alleged 'right' to own people as property. Madness.
Quote:
...Bennett was critical of the stance taken recently by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who said that any of his players who don't stand for the anthem will not play. Bennett called that "crazy" and "inconsiderate of a person being a human being."
"It reminded me of the Dred Scott case: You're property, so you don't have the ability to be a person first," Bennett said. "I think that in this generation, I think that sends the wrong message to young kids and young people all across the world that your employer doesn't see you as a human being, they see you as a piece of property, and if that's the case, then I don't get it. I just don't get why you don't see us as human beings first."

Sorry, the players are not "owned."
They are free to go find a job where they can
protest and do whatever they want, regardless
of any rules set by their employer. Good luck.
"Madness" is these pampered, overpaid primadonnas
expecting to set their own rules.
Let me explain it to you some more, put on your thinking cap. White people need to save themselves from their ignorance, arrogance and pride.
They already tried 'saving' blacks with welfare and it didn't work. They used socialist/communist influences from people of the likes of W. E.B. Dubois, a real swindler, to try to create equal rights for them when all it really did was create a big entitlement mentality complex and welfare state for them. You can't force the principles of equality and goodwill onto people through politics, they have to happen on their own without forced influence.
People dont like being forced to do things. The revolutionary Patriots responsible for the country did not like being forced to do things. People who do not like NFL football should not be forced to subsidize their stadiums in any way under the false premise it is 'helping the economy'
Whites have also succumbed to socialist/communist influences through the welfare state, obviously and ironically made a business of pretending to 'help' the blacks..
There is nothing truly patriotic about any of this nonsense.
Just more examples that the road to hell is paved with good intention and if I may add, IGNORANCE, ARROGANCE and PRIDE.
