At this point I don't personally want them to end the protests. If anything, ramp them up. I'm done with the NFL, and with a little more work by the players, so will a large majority of the rest of the fans. So I encourage these illiterate morons to go big or go home. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

I'am of the same mind set. Not ever going back to watching. I would love nothing better than for them to keep kneeling and spiral the NFL down into the dust bowl of history. “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this.

The leftist strategy of divide and destroy is working well. The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC The Dhimocrats love America like ticks love a hound. | |||

I don’t see myself watching again any time soon either. They made their bed and now they have to lay in it. The NFL could always count on me for a few hundred dollars a year, but no more. I refuse to spend one single penny on the NFL. I have yet to watch a single snap this year, intentionally or otherwise. I’m done with them regardless if they stop the bullshit or not. I say keep on protesting you idiots. See where it really gets you. | |||

That right there is funny. It's so cynical that it doesn't surprise me at all that this is Roger Goodell's brilliant idea ...
We'll just take it away from our support of breast cancer research and our Salute to Service! ... and give it to the Social Justice Warriors! Ya, that's the ticket!  The owners who continue to employ Roger Goodell are as stupid, gutless, and spineless as their employee. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

So let me get this right. The Owners are actually taking money from the Breast Cancer research charities and giving to the the players to distribute in the inner cities radicals? Then the owners didn't give up one extra dime, right? | |||

That's what Eric Reid (player) said. The NFL almost certainly has to come back and say that is not true. It would be a huge PR disaster. This is a very confusing and conflicting situation. NFL letter from yesterday:   NFL Social Justice Initiative = NFL bribe for players to stand for anthem | |||

Right! Remember, all of this started because Colin Kaepernick is a crappy quarterback who was trying to impress his SJW girlfriend and deflect attention from his poor play! "Some things are apparent.

It's nice to see in the letter posted by sdy that the NFL supports the Militay and Veterans. And they only charge us taxpayers a few million in fees to show this patriotism. Report: Defense Dept. paid NFL millions of taxpayer dollars to salute troops It appears over the years the Red, White, and Blue displays you have seen at NFL games has been an income source for the NFL. “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this.

As anybody who's paid attention (and cared) might have known or guessed: I never thought much of pro sports in the first place, but this takes the cake.

Add in the costs of all the flyovers that are done. Not in the millions, but it all counts against the taxpayers. Fuel, ops and maint support, etc. When I used to watch the NFL - every weekend except for the last 2 seasons - I felt sorry for the folks spending their Sundays working just a few second thrill for the fans. | |||

They suck at the government tit: federal, state and local. I soured on the NFL when I saw all of the shenanigans with the Rams stadium deal. We the taxpayers of Missouri have another 10 years worth of bond payments to make for a stadium that now sits empty. I would have no major philosophical problem with the NFL if it wasn't welfare for billionaires. I would still be soured on the NFL for allowing the players to insult the country by kneeling for the National Anthem... but I could just choose to NOT buy a ticket. It's really a slap in the face to be forced to support it with hard earned taxpayer dollars. "Some things are apparent.

Thursday night in Cowboy's stadium   | |||

Anyone notice they were showing the Thursday night game on Amazon? It was really annoying, it was right below your account info and you had to scroll through it to get to the products. Just shows you how desperate they are... Fuck. Them. | |||

One could argue that the fly-overs and other displays by the military were good for recruiting. And the fans, most of which are pro-military (as evidenced by their current boycott of the NFL) are taxpayers, and they thoroughly enjoyed the displays. All nations like to display their military might. I found what you said riveting. | |||

That is a pretty sight, but I could do with a few(o.k. many) more vacant seats. | |||

Aircrew must stay current. Takeoffs, landings, natops, etc. Circle the airfield doing touch or goes or fly over a stadium. It all goes in the log. Also the military more and more does try to be an 8to5 job whenever possible, it is not though, Sunday flights are just another day. | |||

I totally get that. I was a jet engine mechanic in the AF, spent 15 years on the flightline. Was remembering the empathy I felt at the time. | |||

Working weekends was normal where I was assigned, despite airshows and stuff like that. No big deal it's part of the job. Touch and goes are done every day. If you had worked aircraft maintenance you'd be better able to relate to where I was coming from. No biggee. I was trying to add a different perspective to the conversation regarding the NFL and the military (us taxpayers) paying them for patriotic displays during the game. | |||
