If you just look at the cold hard facts here, the NFL is nuts if it does not bury this controversy as soon as possible. There is absolutely no upside. And the downside is that there are 63 million people that voted for Trump who have just about had it with the MSM. If those people suddenly turn off the TV and stop attending games… watch out!!! And it is getting to the point this could be a reality.
They are not dropping it. They are doubling down.
Kerr even says he has met Reagan, both Bushs Clinton and Obama but refuses to meet Trump because RACIST!!! since he had the utter GALL to object to overpaid idiots disrespecting our National Anthem.

This seems to have the letter removed. Also Twitter seems to be censoring the negative comments per usual.

Brother do this A$$ES turn my stomach.
Leftist logic:
We can scream at you, toss stuff at you, beat you up and even KILL YOU. However if you open your mouth to object to being treated as a valueless slave, then — RACIST!!!
“…refuses to meet Trump because RACIST”
Let’s not forget, Trump owned the NEW JERSEY GENERALS, and the WHOLE PURPOSE of the USFL was to successfully sue the NFL and make them merge with or buy out these USFL teams!
They still hate Trump for that, no doubt…

NFL gets billions in subsidies from U.S. taxpayers
http://money.cnn.com/2015/01/30/news/companies/nfl-taxpayers/index.html
The NFL: Big Business With Big Tax Breaks
http://www.npr.org/2014/01/18/263767372/the-nfl-big-business-with-big-tax-breaks
“The N.F.L.’s eligibility for 501 (c)(6) status is not based on its characteristics but was instead set by Congress in 1966 when Public Law 89-800 passed, redefining tax-exempt organizations in section 501(c)(6) of the tax code to include “professional football leagues.””
H/T to jeans2nd @ the ConservativeTreeHouse.
With luck someone will start a White House petition to end these goodies. — Watch 1 million signatures in 24 hours. ?
Strange that all those good doers(corporations,IMF members,UN employees etc)
never pay taxes.
Though football is the very last resort to need that kind of stuff as you can cut the players income by 50% and they would still be filthy rich.
Seems some very rich people made the laws as they like them
and colleges became so corrupted that they give dumb,uneducated,violent and illeterate people exams for just playing football.
And someone who does such things is open to any kind of perversion
and lawbreaking-and thats why universities produce so many lefty loonies.
I have never begrudged what professional football players get paid. Their career can be ended in a split second. It happens all the time. Sure one can supply many examples of people in other dangerous occupations and/or services where the same applies up to and including their very lives. But I’m a supporter of the free enterprise system and I say if one can earn huge bucks because of a demonstrated ability then more power to them.
I am for free-markets, but not for taxpayers subsidizing sports teams, especially those that ‘protest’ their country over specious non-issues.
That’s what i’m talking about.
Getting as much money out of a free market os a completely different animal than subsidizing.
Both are opposed to each other but some people just take the best out of two worlds while in fact living in just the first of them(everything free markets make them enjoy life) and pretending to live in the second(pretending to be social while missusing loopholes)
Obama’s UTTER CONTEMPT for America, and the American people…

We are watching the NFL commit suicide. The players are so fucking stupid that they don’t realize that they’re strangling their golden goose and the league president is such a eunuch that he is going to let them do it. It is a sickening thing to watch the effects of “social justice” and PC as they kill the game just as they have been trying to kill this nations history. Even if the NFL did an about face right now, which there is no indication they are going to do, the damage already done would take years to recover from. A lot of people totally agree with the presidents statements on this but of course in the legacy media and ultraleftists ESPN, they are doing their best to paint the POTUS as a racist for saying what so many people think. In the end the people will vote with their dollars and stay away from the games following the lead of what a substantial number of former fans are already doing, but more importantly they will vote with their TV controllers, because TV revenue is where the NFLs big money comes from. People quit watching and the revenue for paying players will decline.
It is not just the people who watch…..
The rest of us can Boycott NFL Sponsors since the NFL has NO SOCIALLY REDEEMING CHARACTERISTICS!!!
The NFL is nothing but low-life perverted SCUM who endorse violence against WOMEN, CHILDREN and POLICE!
And to add insult to injury…
Mar 8, 2017 — FORBES: NFL Sponsorship Soars To $1.25 Billion, Up 4.3% Year-Over-Year
“Despite all of the attention paid to dwindling NFL TV ratings….”
Talk about the multi-national corporations flipping the US citizens the middle finger!
When person stops watching the games on the boob tube, they’re in essence boycotting the sponsors. Eventually the effects will be felt.
RAH “When person stops watching the games on the boob tube, they’re in essence boycotting the sponsors….”
RAH, I have not watched the Boob Tube in four decades. A listing of sponsors lets me write nasty complaint letters telling them it is not only the TV watchers they are losing by supporting Women beating Dog killing Anti-police civilization haters.
Remember they UPPED their sponsor ship in response to Amercian’s boycott. Now they need to get really slammed.

Montana Governor Rejects Bill Banning Shariah Law in Courts “Gov. Steve Bullock has vetoed a bill that would have banned Shariah and other foreign laws from being used in Montana courts…. Montana was one of the 13 states considering legislation seeking to prevent the use of foreign law in state courts…. Bullock said he was disturbed that the ban, if he had signed it, could have been seen as an “endorsement for anti-Muslim sentiments and activity.”
This is an ongoing fight to have Shariah Law recognized AS LAW in the USA. Remember AG Lynch: ‘We’ve Had Over 1,000 Investigations Into Acts of Anti-Muslim Hatred, Including Rhetoric’ — (wwwDOTcnsnews.com/news/article/melanie-hunter/lynch-over-1000-investigations-acts-anti-muslim-hatred-and-over-45) but Lynch did not have a problem with the IRS, ATF, OSHA and others targeting True-The-Vote and other conservative groups.
The fact that Islam is not recognized by our government, even under Trump, as opposed to our Constitution is really, really scary.
According to a 2010 study, Islam is followed by ~ 0.9% of the US population, compared with 70.6% who follow Christianity, 22.8% unaffiliated, 1.9% Judaism, 0.7% Buddhism, and 0.7% Hinduism.
For less than 1% of the population, muslims have entirely TOO MUCH POWER and INFLUENCE on our government and way of life especially when compared to Christians.
Gail, I was speaking of the BLM movement, not ISIS.
In St Louis, the mayor has now put on record that the violence in black neighborhoods is not a problem with inner city thug culture gone wild, but it is because of “institutionalized racism”.

We are tearing down statues of fallen soldiers, and we are replacing them with monuments to lowlife thug heroin dealers who try to kill cops.
ISIS can only dream of such mainstream acceptance and unopposed success.
BLM and ISIS are brothers-in-arms. They are not mutually exclusive. Many of the Thugs get converted in Prison and there was/is a Pakistani Sufi cleric Gilani who grabs the thugs as they leave prison. “Members of the MOA are encouraged to travel to Pakistan to receive religious and military/terrorist training from Sheikh Gilani.”
The Clarion Project document also says that, “The MOA [Muslims of America] is now an autonomous organization which possesses an infrastructure capable of planning and mounting terrorist campaigns overseas and within the U.S.”
“…Muslim incarceration rate
Muslims comprise 15% of the prison population. This number far exceeds the percentage of Muslims in the general population. It is eighteen times greater, to be exact. Put another way, there are about 2.4 million Muslims in the United States and 350,000 of them are in jail. That means more than 12%* of Muslims in America are incarcerated.
Conversion rates
Reports on the number of prisoners who convert to Islam vary and are framed in different ways. Some sources estimate 40,000 prisoners per year convert. Others put the numbers closer to 135,000 per year. Some posit that 80% of inmates who “find faith while in prison convert to Islam.”
One thing is for sure: The majority of those who convert to Islam in prison are black, with as many as one in three black prisoners converting. (The number of Hispanic prisoners converting to Islam is also on the rise.)”

Oppressed celebrity multimillionaires. Who knew?
Barack and Michelle said they were oppressed, too. I wish somebody would oppress me like that.
They were so oppressed that Barack ordered
2 new air force one planes for 4 billion dollars((that’s more/equal the entire annual budget of more than 20 countries on this planet))
They were so oppressed that they kissed islams butt during all the 8 years
while willfully ignoring that islam was and is enslaving black for 1400 years
and still is in countries like Sudan & Mauretania
as slavery is 100% legal in islam and the term for slave= Abeed means Nigger
(white women were 10* more expensive than black ones in muslim slave trade and muslim offspring from black female slaves was not allowed to survive)
while the term slave originates from slaves=slavic people.
The real story of slave trade is so much different from the official one
as the story of global warming or obama vs trump is.
One of them is a massmurderer and sellout to the banksters
while the other is trump,
but people were not protesting against the massmurderer because banksters own the tv stations.
So much about oppression and how much obamas did
for the oppressed.
(and i’m pretty sure that during obamas anti opression regency the number of black house and landowners went significantly down
while worship of gangsters and transsexuals went up)
The U.S. Flag Code dates back to the not-too-distant year of 1942. The decision to enact began with the Pledge of Allegiance—a ritual that used to involve a salute that required you to raise your right hand, flip your palm down, point it toward the flag in a salute and recite the words. These instructions might seem unthinkable today for obvious reasons—they’re reminiscent of rows of Nazis saluting their Fuhrer. But believe it or not, they date from the beginning of the Pledge itself.

The NFL, now the NBA and MLB as well. Seems they wish to rid our country of professional sports. I can’t say it would bother me. Money has a tendency to ruin a sport anyway. Bobby Jones refused to turn pro because he felt that money would destroy the game of golf. In some ways it has. Let’s take money out of sports and see how that works for a while .. shall we?
The NFL, or any corporation for that matter, is in no way obligated to provide a disgruntled employee a free soap box in front of 100 million people. If such a person wants acquire one with his own money and time, fine. That is his right as an American citizen. But to exploit a corporation that has paid him very handsomely, without permission and without any regard for the health of that corporation, will get fired every time and justifiably so.
Millions of “people of color” are attempting to enter this country every year by any means, yet rich “people of color” are sick of the unjust and oppressive society whites have created in this country. Am I understanding this correctly?
This is how communists work. Destroy a nation’s culture from within using useful idiots.
I find it ironic that the left has been attacking and attempting to destroy American football for 20 years. Now these “Bell Curve” scholars are helping destroy their livelyhood.
“pocket pool”…. hilarious!
Add this to that short list of things at which obozo excelled.
I don’t watch the NFL or TV but wonder why an owner or the NFL would allow the behavior that is going to piss off half the audience? I am in the respect the flag camp, but also believe an individual has the right to disrespect the flag or anthem or pledge, etc. As my employee while being paid by me, they would be fired.
Football and the NFL is on its way out anyway because of the brain injury problem. More and more parents are not putting their kids into football and as the years pass there will be a tipping point with less talent and interest. If I was an owner, I would sell and cash in before the value declines steeply. This type of conduct is only hastening the eventual demise of the NFL.
…as owner I would allow them to remain out of public view, but not to use my paid for publicity to promote their own prejudice.
“Jerry Jones: “Cowboys Will Stand For The Flag Or “Your Ass Will Be Off The Team”
Well good, at least there will be one team I can watch.
I watched the start of each game today, and if there was a knee on the ground, I changed the channel immediately. Will continue doing so for the rest of the season.
It’s just another sign that a lot of NFL players have taken too many hard blows to the head, and don’t seem to understand that spitting on the Flag and the Nation, by taking a knee, infuriates people who love this country.
The fools could have used many methods to get their grievencies out in the public and they chose to trash football, the Flag and the Nation as their means of protest.
They have a right to protest any way they want, and I have the right to protest their method of protest.
They better watch out, or they are going to lose a lot of money and some will lose their livelyhood just to make a foolish gesture, that only serves to divide the nation, not unite the nation.
Trump didn’t divide the nation because he spoke out against trashing the Flag and National Anthem, it was Kaepernick and his ilk that have caused this division. And it’s not going away, either.
President Trump speaks the truth and the Left can’t handle the truth, and tear into him for it, but fortunately Trump is in the right, and he’s not backing down.
The last poll I heard about said 70 percent of Americans did NOT like football players taking a knee at the games. The millionaire social justice warriors should think about that figure for a while. You are not making friends acting this way.
Kaepernick didn’t think this out very well. Genuflection is historically a gesture of subjugation and acknowledgment to the dominance of a higher authority. The servant’s submissive gesture transferred to conservative Christian ceremonials. In football, taking a knee probably originated back when (short) Catholic Priests coached Notre Dame, and needed to get players’ attention or to pray before a game or practice.
So, how is it that a deliberate acknowledgment of inferiority has become a protest of the oppressed?
I’ve been ignoring these “protests” by privileged, well-fed, highly paid and spoiled brats who are inappropriately showing their dissent against an imagined and contrived oppression as if by kneeling to a master. It is pitiful, but I simply refuse to be upset by it.
But if anyone does care to complain to the league or the team about this silliness occurring at a specific sports event, be sure to also do so to the network and station or web site that are carrying the program. The network media will feel the protest first, and will be the first to do anything about it.

http://asamericanasapplepie.org/about/
That same source has a story that claims
“NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was fired this morning by the owner’s association that employs him. The owners, finally tired of the disrespectful actions of the players who kneel during the National Anthem, took the cue from President Trump to take action.:”
But if anyone else is reporting that, it sure isn’t easy to find. While I wish both stories were true, I am beginning to think that that source should not be trusted.
Unfortunately 1/2 the time I can no longer connect to a story because my browser is so old. However if I update then DISQUS will start working again and Google/DISQUS will ban my comments…

Wonder where those NFL players got the idea and inspiration to do something other than stand and put their hand over their heart for the national anthem? That darned Trump!

I wonder what the NFL’s position is on abortion and, specifically, late term abortion.
Also Civil War statues, triggering speech, campus safe spaces, animal rights and lesbian adoptions.
Gay weddings, immigration, illegal immigration, border security, wall, DACA, drug use, legalization of marijuana, sexual abuse and violence, soda taxes, photo-radar, Obamacare, peace/war in the Middle East, support for Israel, nuclear power, electric vs. IC vehicles, hyperloop, pornography, government control of the internet, snooping by national security organizations, gun control, GMOs, vaccines, global warming for that matter.
Hell if they want to get political and alienate all their fans and sponsors, I’m sure they can just do it.
Yeah, especially late term global warming panic and drug use!
