Didn't read the article, but apparently little has changed. Just about every team had players who protested the national anthem on game day.
The NFL has become so absurd that really what you're witnessing is a preview of what the whole damn country will look like in a generation or less.

The NFL obviously doesn't care about that, which is to say the NFL is unAmerican.
Boycott it.

That article was from week 3 last year. I found this today............
Six players from three teams protested during the playing of the National Anthem before their games in the third week of the 2018 National Football League (NFL) season.
Two players knelt, two raised fists and two boycotted the Anthem, USA Today reports:
- Los Angeles Chargers (1): Left tackle Russell Okung raised a fist in protest during the anthem.
- Seattle Seahawks (2): Offensive tackle Duane Brown and defensive Quinton Jefferson boycotted the Anthem by staying in the locker room while it played.
- Miami Dolphins (3): Receivers Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson took a knee and defensive end Robert Quinn raised his fist during the National Anthem.

O, IC. My mistake. Sorry.
It will always have the feel of the NFL coddling black players anyway. They have firmly established their bias. Thus, the NFL remains unAmerican.

In the meantime, Nike is enjoying record stock prices, let's see which social con will start a thread about that....
“Conscientiously believing that the proper condition of the negro is slavery, or a complete subjection to the white man, and entertaining the belief that the day is not distant when the old Union will be restored with slavery nationally declared to be the proper condition of all of African descent, and in view of the future harmony and progress of all the States of America, I have been induced to issue this address, so that there may be no misunderstanding in the future”

Well, okay. I'll ask the question that has no doubt been on your mind too: What makes anyone think that the reality of fake news is not also to be found in the stock market?Originally Posted by Safety

If you want to see why the NFL is losing popularity, you only need to watch the game tonight. The officiating is horrible. They are imposing different standards on the Bills than they are the Patriots.

The real idiots are people supporting this.
Steelers Bell is holding out at a cost to him of almost $900k per game.
Nine hundred $#@!ing thousand dollars per game, what average American wouldn't give their left and right nut for one $#@!ing game on this guy's payroll?
Tell me... and they whine, the players, that they're not making enough and... oh, by the way, I hate this society I live in, I can't make enough. I'm so oppressed.
Just like democracy, it's the majority who are idiots, they keep throwing money at these privileged punks just like they keep throwing votes at rich white guys who just keep everyone penned up at their convenience.
Think about it for a change people.
my junk is ugly

Do you think it is fair to equate his value system, to yours? Especially if he's within the Rights of the 'franchise tag' clause. I believe he is free from fines until up to week 7.
Just because $900K a week does not move Bell to report to work, like it moves you to report to work...does that somehow make it fair to criticize Bell??

How is Nike doing again?
