Mark your calendars that September 23, 2017, is the day that the National Football League has officially committed suicide. The zombie will continue lurching about for a while but make no mistake about it, the NFL is now dead.

For it is this morning that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell came out and condemned the legitimately elected President of the United States and by doing so, firmly put himself on the side of the miscreants, malcontents, and race-baiters who have been allowed to hijack the league to push their own divisive political agenda.

Trump’s comments during a political rally in Alabama on Friday that the league’s owners should fire any “son of a bitch” who didn’t pay respect to the flag by sitting out the national anthem detonated what has been a ticking time bomb due to Goodell’s failure to discipline Colin Kaepernick last summer when he began his anti-American, anti-cop crusade.

Goodell has now caved and in doing so picked sides. Could an announcement that November will be set aside as a month that the NFL endorses the promotion of hostility toward the police and racial equality as a small group recently demanded soon become a reality?

Via The Hill “NFL head: Trump’s ‘divisive comments’ show a ‘lack of respect’”:

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell fired back at President Trump on Saturday for encouraging league owners to remove players who take a knee during the national anthem, saying Trump’s “divisive comments” show “an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL.”

“The NFL and our players are at our best when we help create a sense of unity in our country and our culture,” Goodell said in a statement. “There is no better example than the amazing response from our clubs and players to the terrible natural disasters we’ve experienced over the last month.”

“Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities.”

The NFL chief’s comments came the morning after Trump told a crowd at a rally for Alabama Senate candidate Luther Strange (R) that NFL players will stop kneeling if fans left games.

“When people like yourselves turn on television and you see those people taking the knee when they are playing our great national anthem – the only thing you could do better is if you see it, even if it’s one player, leave the stadium,” Trump said. “I guarantee things will stop.”

Trump also said NFL owners should fire players if they refuse to stand during the national anthem.

“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a b—- off the field right now,'” he continued, adding, “‘He is fired.'”

Goodell’s ripping of Trump isn’t enough. Black Lives Matter ringleader DeRay Mckesson – a man so deranged that he claimed the movie poster for the “War for the Planet of the Apes” depicted him as one of the apes – tweeted that the Goodell was pretty much a pussy for not more harshly coming out against the leader of the free world.

Granted that Goodell has painted himself into a corner on this divisive and controversial social problem that was allowed to gestate within the belly of his league until it burst forth from its chest cavity like one of the Xenomorphs in the “Alien” movie franchise.

Not that anyone should have any sympathy for the man who may have made boatloads of money for the owners but has nearly destroyed the product on the field as well as the league’s brand during his ruinous and scandal-plagued tenure at the helm.

Plummeting ratings will now begin to reach freefall speed with Goodell’s decision to firmly put himself in the camp of the malcontents and the America haters, it was already looking grim in terms of a ratings rebound after the first two weeks and look for that trend to continue after this morning.

Good luck with filling those stadiums now the NFL’s head honcho has just given his blessing for hundreds of players to sit out the national anthem during Sunday’s games.

The Right does not like College Campuses keeping racists and Nazis and White Nationalists from spewing their hate, but hate and want to shut down a football player's First Amendment right in protest against possible injustice. By Presidential Decree. Trump's Baltimore or St. Louise is the NFL.

To deny the truth seems to be normal for people like you. Trying to tie David Duke to Liberals or Democrats is like trying to sell Trump as an intelligent being.

America has serious problems. Mentioning them is not being anti-American, just as your doctor telling you you are not as healthy as you thought, felt, or hoped. If your doctor decided to save your feelings about your condition to spare any heart-ache, would you go back to him? Okay, I might. I hate doctors. Not important. "America hating BS" is keeping quiet. Ruffle some feathers or kill the bird?

This is way down the rabbit hole: "David Duke and Adolph loves the American democrap party." (To say "love" would have been grammatically correct.)

Well thats 68 million Americans that think differently than you. Apparently the MAJORITY of the nation has the intelligence to understand who the real fascists, communists are.I guess you are part of the stupid minority.

Trump is very intelligent. He's just not a lying politician. He cant speak "swamp" like your kind. The kind that loves being constantly screwed over by career politicians. We voted for an intelligent person. We damned sure didnt vote for the democrat crook and mental case, or the senile comrade like you obviously did.

Anything here sounds familiar to you?

Donald Trump, the Psychopath

PSYCHOPATHS
1. They do not feel guilt.
When we hurt someone we usually feel guilty about it. A psychopath will not feel guilt.

2. They do not feel empathy.
We as humans are usually very empathetic towards others. The psychopath will not be. They cannot understand and do not care to the emotions of others.

3. They love to make people feel guilty.
They pick up a lot of small things about everyone in their lives. They use this sort of thing to get in your trust. They use your vulnerabilities to gain control over you. One of their favorite things to do is guilt someone and then cashes in a favor.

4. They only value themselves.
No one else matters to them but themselves and their well being.

5. They think they are better than everyone else.
They feel superior to everyone they encounter. This is how they are able to dodge guilt and things of the sort, the common person is only here for their amusement.

6. They are liars.
They lie all the time even when it is not something that will benefit them. This gives them a false sense of power.

7. They have appealing personalities.
Psychopaths are often people who are liked. They are approachable and friendly, not how they are portrayed in movies.

8. They do not take responsibility for their actions.
No matter what they do it is never their fault anything ever gets put back on them.

Keep in mind a person does not have to have all of these traits to have psychopathic tendencies. One or two is more than enough. It seems there are a lot more psychopaths out there in this world than we would like to believe.

Appears there are a lot more psychopaths on this site.
Sports is for playing the game.
NOT making statements.
Take it out of the game, it just does not belong.

Being involved in thoughts as CiC of a country makes this a rare thing. Just like it was. Not like the America hating bastard that was Imposter in Chief before him, who did not. And he didn't have a shemale like Obastard who comes out and say she is NOW proud of her country, since his husband is now Imposter in chief.

Sorry, but the idiots are the left nuts.

Thanks for describing the true psychopaths in this country: Obastard and Klintoon. And their moronic supporters.
