These people who are burning their merchandise, I wish they would at least consider donating it instead. There are people out there who have very little in the way of clothes. Seriously for anyone out there considering lighting their stuff on fire, just donate it instead.
Not to mention, once this passes they are going to regret burning their $100 jerseys
Yah. Probably not many citizens of Puerto Rico probably know football, but I'm sure they would love to get a jersey of a defensive lineman with what happened to them.
Same with the people who burned LeBron jerseys in 2010. I bet those people feel stupid now that they had to spend $250 on a new one 4 years later when he returned
Again, you believe what you want to believe. Wrap yourself up in the flag and pretend your the most patriotic American. You and Trump and his supporters are completely lost in the silent protest. These are American who love the country, love the military, do great things in their community. They are unhappy with POTUS, and most importantly social injustice for minorities in our country.
I do not agree with Trumps way of handling this matter, and I certainly do not agree with the disgraceful NFL players kneeling. I agree with them on the issue of police getting away with brutality and murder- especially towards blacks. Disgracing our flag is the wrong way to call attention to their beef, however. Those responsible for the injustice in our legal system are the cowardly DA's, Judges and police that stick together and support the "bad apples"- just like the NFL players sticking together and supporting their disrespectful comrades. I'm done. There is no argument you can make that will make it okay to kneel during the national anthem.
Now that Trump said something the media will run this nonsense non stop. Now the "movement" will shift to focus on Trump hate since the original message was lost.
Alejandro Villanueva takes blame for standing by himself for anthem
[I]“Every single time I see that picture of me standing by myself, I feel embarrassed,” Villanueva said, according to the Twitter feed of Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.[/i]
“Unfortunately I threw my teammates under the bus, unintentionally,” Villanueva said, according to KDKA-TV.

these people are whiny. players are entitled to voice their displeasure at horrific racism in this country. you'll see more whining around here than other places because this forum is full of conservative Trump-lovers
Um..how about they quit using the NFL to broadcast their agenda. They are hired to play ball and can do this other nonsense on their own time.
Are the owners not pissed about this? My team, my field...knock off the crap!
Owners support their right to silent peaceful protest. Not "your" team unless you have stock (Packers). Most fields belong to public. Best way to get your activist message across is at a game being broadcast to millions.
