The NFL in he most "macho" team sport in the globe. But now some whining pinko sissies can push them around? It needs leadership. Lets make the NFL director a elected position, and see how long it would take to repair the hurt feelings that the NFL has put upon themselves.

I agree but the coaches today or the NCAA will throw them off the team for conduct like that today.

Great point Bev!

Bevos

SORRY, but I don't think there is anything "MACHO" about a bunch of over weight, hopped up on steroids, PACK of guys that think the rules don't apply to them!!!

Bevos

BUT, like I said, once they get into NFL, what is their conduct going to be like? Did you read the Article I put up yesterday about the NFL ARREST REPORT? Every 7 days, one or more are arrested for something. And those arrests range from drunk driving, to murder, with "everything" in between!!!

Your a bit wrong on this I believe. I played. Loved it. Ultimate team sport. Quit in high school to concentrate on wrestling. I was way better at that though football was more fun. I started getting away from football later in life not because of the game but because of the individuals playing. All the sudden the ultimate team sport became all about me.

Bevos

I understand, high school Football, may be OK, and the Coaches have a lot more control over the players, even College Football!!! BUT, the next step is always NFL!!! And you can see where they are heading!!!

True, it’s not the game. It’s the individual. That’s my point. Take young men who have no father or no moral guidance. Tell them they are invincible and the greatest thing ever. give them millions. Recipe for disaster

Kaepernick had both Parents. In fact they were white, and adopted him, gave him SO MUCH MORE than he would ever have had, and he hates whites. Never any mention of them being mean to him. They looked like a VERY LOVING family, ALL of them, yet he hates whites.

But, did you read the Article I put up yesterday? NFL players are arrested on AVERAGE of every 7 days. 1 or MORE, on charges ranging from drunk driving to MURDER, with EVERYTHING in between!! WHY do we need THAT??

Every time I see those you tube videos that show our soldiers, black and white, surprising their families with their early returns from deployment, I feel proud of every one of them. Don't forget, they are part of a volunteer military!! Whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve, at one point in their lives they wrote a blank check made payable to the U.S.A. for an amount of "up to and including their lives." That is honor!! That is selflessnesse!! That is allegiance!! They make these sacrifices under the banner and auspices of our beautiful flag and the stirring strains of our National Anthem.

Yet, instead of showing our gratitude to these courageous men and women, there are some among us who selfishly live under the protection and the prerogative to protest that they provide. Instead of kneeling down to pray for the health and safety of these brave Americans, they choose instead, to spit in their faces.

When I read about the "suspicious" plays of the Oakland Raiders toward their own QB, Derek Carr, I admit I was surprised, but not shocked. Here are multi-millionaires protesting the tenets of the country that made it possible for them to become multi-millionaires, but are disloyal and disrespectful of her iconic symbols. It stands to reason that this lack of loyalty would even extend into their locker rooms. How proud of themselves they must be!! What betrayal!! They probably didn't even care if Carr would have been seriously injured. Their objective was to "get the guy" who didn't agree with them. Now, just think about that!! One guy vs. his own team!! What cowards!!!

I repeat - there are black men and women also fighting for our country. Where is the respect for them - or does the vile hatred and racism of the ingrates outweigh all common decency, loyalty, or patriotism?!!

Also read about the Raider thing.
Not sure I believe it. If found to be true the NFL is done.
Cannot survive if sponsored by mostly minorities.

If I owned a business now days I would be reluctant to hire black people because if they become unhappy all they have to do is play the race card. This may increase the problem of good black people being to obtain employment. So---whose fault is this? I definitely would not hire Muslims.

Yes Bevos, we are living in a total different age again where race baiting is used to get Americans hating each other. Its the "House divided" strategy.
