If I have brain cancer, I don’t ask my dentist what I should do. If my car has a problem, I don’t seek help from a plumber! Why do you think the public cares what a football player thinks about politics? If we want to know about football, then depending on the information we seek, we might consult with you, but even a quarterback doesn’t seek advice on playing his position from a defensive tackle!
You seem to have this over inflated view of yourselves, thinking because you enjoy working on such a large scale stage, that somehow your opinion about everything matters. The NFL realizes the importance of its “image” so it has rules that specify the clothes and insignia you can wear, the language you use, and your “antics” after a touchdown or other “great” play. But somehow you and your employer don’t seem to care that you disgrace the entire nation and its 320 million people in the eyes of the world by publicly disrespecting this country, its f**g, and its anthem! The taxpaying citizens of this country subsidize your plush work environments, yet you choose to use those venues to openly offend those very citizens.
Do you even understand what the f**g of this country means to so many of its citizens before you choose to “take a knee” in protest of this “country" during our national anthem?
You may think because you are paid so much that your job is tough, but you are clueless when it comes to tough. Let me show you those whose job is really tough.

You are spoiled babies who stand around and have staff squirt GatorAid in your mouths, sit in front of misting cooling fans when it’s warm, and sit on heated benches when it's cold. That’s not “tough” that's pampered.
You think that you deserve to be paid excessively high salaries, because you play a “dangerous" game where you can incur career ending injuries. Let me show you career ending injuries!

You think that you deserve immediate medical attention and the best medical facilities and doctors when injured. Let me show you what it’s like for those who really need and deserve medical attention.

You think you have the right to disrespect the f**g of the United States , the one our veterans fought for, risked limbs and mental stability to defend, in many cases died for. Let me show you what our f**g means to them, their families, and their friends.

You believe you are our heroes, when in reality you are nothing but overpaid entertainers, who exist solely for our enjoyment! Well, your current antics are neither entertaining nor enjoyable, but rather a disgrace to this country, its citizens, all our veterans and their families, and the sacrifices they have made to ensure this country remains free. You choose to openly disgrace this country in the eyes of the rest of the world, yet with all your money, still choose to live here rather than in any other country. People with even the slightest amount of “Class” will stand and respect our f**g. Where does that put you? You want to see heroes… here are this countries heroes!

Marine Presenting F**g to Young Son.jpeg

You can protest policies, the current government, or anything else you choose, that is your right. But when you “protest” our f**g and anthem, you are insulting the nation we all live in and love, and all those who have served, been injured, or died to keep it free. There is nothing you can do or say that can make your actions anything more than the arrogance of classless people, who care about themselves more than our country or the freedoms for which our veterans and their families have sacrificed so much, to ensure you have the “right” to speak freely. Our country is far from perfect, but if you can point to any other country where your freedom and opportunities are better than they are here, then you just might want to go there and show respect for their f**g!

I'm sorry as I don't know how to post pictures like others on OPP but they are listed so use your imagination.

Am in total agreement with your post. I was once a large fan with season tickets but now I don't even like the game due to the players attitude and the behavior of the NFL.

I think that by the people not attending the games and cancelling their season tickets is or should be sending a major message to the NFL that their behavior is unacceptable to the public and especially to former military personnel. What else would you suggest Moldy to get that message across to the NFL and Roger Goodell as to how you feel regarding this behavior? I am a Green Bay Packer fan and while they for the most part stand for the National Anthem Other teams do not and so I am wondering what I should do to let my feelings be known not only to my team but to the NFL in general.

You're ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!! Because of the brave men and women who were willing to sacrifice their very lives to keep us all safe and free , we ALL have the freedom to express our views(Even the unappreciative i***ts who disrespect the f**g,and the great nation and people that it represents). If any one h**es this country, you have the freedom to leave, you won't be missed.

For sure. One of my rights is to not patronize those whom I consider well misinformed. That includes the NFL, Hollywood and certain individuals on OPP.

Moldyoldy supposedly served in the US military in some fashion. I haven't served do to being subject to epilepsy at the age of 16. After diagnosis I was classifies 4-F which was after women and children I guess. Anyway there ore those on OPP that have served in the military that are liberal which I find hard to believe but again I am older that they are.

You let i***t trump define what this protest is about, instead of listening to those protesting. Kneeling was suggested to Kap. by an active soldier. But wallow in your ignorance and deny constitutional rights because you don't like them. Instead get your marching orders from a coward who ran away from his obligations.

I don't know whether or not you have ever read some of my responses here regarding the NFL or not. I do listen to Rush Limbaugh on occasion actually on rare occasion and I remember him talking one time quite some time back about the fact that he wanted to own an NFL team. He also mentioned at the time he was concerned because the liberals were dead set against the NFL because of the male ness of the sport and the testosterone that it exhibits. I have been a Green Bay Packers fan for many years and even I called BS on Rush when i heard that. However after doing some background checks on Colin Kaepernick and his girlfriend that he lives with it did become apparent that this may in fact be true. Nessie is Colin Kaepernick's girlfriend and she is a dyed in the wool liberal and I believe that she even has a radio show that is liberal. The liberals want to destroy the NFL anyway that they can and using Colin is just an example as to how far they will go to destroy the NFL. The liberals will reduce the NFL to nothing more than a f**g football league by the time that Roger Goodell gets through his contract with the NFL. Oh by the way Roger Goodell has a large number of liberals working for him in the NFL league office that he holds. I feel sorry for the NFL and the game that Americans have come to love being destroyed before their eyes and I have no thoughts as to how to salvage any of it as of now. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Rush loves a good conspiracy, it is his stock in trade. Liberals love football too. There is a recognition that the many concussions have had a bad effect on lots of players. It is not a liberal issue, but a medical one. Lots of moms are worried about their kids. Baseball has those special hats to wear when batting, many basketball players are wearing goggles. They want to be safe. Turn off Rush.

DUH football players have helmets, shoulder pads, chest and back protectors as well as knee pads, thigh pads and googles and plastic eye protectors. Now if you mounted our NFL player today on a horse covered in armour you would have a knight in shining armour ready to do battle. But Roger Goodell has taken them off of the horse and now the kickoff they have to stay on the line of scrimmage until the ball lands or something like that to avoid collisions down field. Most kickoffs are brought out to the 25 yard line no helmet to helmet hits. Oh and the wear gloves so that they can catch the ball better and on and on it goes. They are better protected than any other sport out there and way better than when they played just a few years ago. The only way to avoid injuries is to reduce the game to f**g football and then everyone will stop watching so what is your point.
