A Message to the NFL

[candycorn]

Not sure how someone can indict the shield for playing the anthem, having a “salute to service” month, almost always have an honor guard present the flag, etc….

Regardless of who you work for; unless it’s the military or the government, your employer doesn’t do half as much as the NFL does.

Rag on the players all you wish. I admire their conscience but argue their decision to protest at work.

Dear NFL,

We real Americans can all go another year, and more without watching you idiots coming onto our TV screens disrespecting our Flag, our Country, our National Anthem, our Military, our Veterans, and our Police Officers. We watch you people to play football and to be entertained, and to be entertained ONLY, not to see you dimwits protesting over fake manufactured oppression. If you want to "protest" by getting on your knees, DO IT SOMEWHERE ELSE! So either wise up or be unemployed.

Enough is enough. And you Owners had better listen up as well.

First off, Sling Blade, there are "real Americans" out there who are mandated to pay their hard earned tax dollars for a socialist program that helps players, coaches, and owners become rich. And, something we don't need. "Those "real Americans" who were mandated, like Obamacare, have every right to have their first amendment rights left in tact to protest against the racial injustice in this country, if their tax dollars are going to subsidize sports socialism, players or fans; .

You seem to have a firm grip on your first amendment rights by complaining about their gripes. Why can't they protest their criticisms of yours?

Don't forget how the demagogues will condemn your right to freedom of speech and expression..
While extolling the greatness of our nation because of freedom..

BS I stand with the kneelers. Most of them have a longer heritage to the US than most of us, since they were brought here as slaves.

Also most vets know it has nothing to do with the flag. But Trump made it all about the Flag and the NA, its about the race divide, and police shooting black men.

Speak for yourself. What the hell is a "real American"???

Take a knee, playahs! The cops put him in cuffs...disrespectful! All he did was shoot his Grandma...who was descended from slaves!

Woman Dies During Standoff At Silver Lake Trader Joe's, Suspect Taken Into Custody

Dylan Roof was as white as he could be, his grandparents would be proud.

The playahs aren't protesting Roof.

They arent protesting the shooter in Trader Joes either but you still brought that up.

youre correct...they ignore their killer brothers and whine about cops.

Or you're going to do what punk? Spend your Sunday's jerking off to porn?

Which I bet is probably what you do anyway.

I bet this letter has the NFL headquarters in a tizzy.

It will when they see all those Empty seats!

In the NFL?

Not many

On Superbowl Sunday, what do you think will be the most watched event on television that day?

Anyone?

I wouldn't bet on that.

I will be starting my 5th straight year of boycotting the NFL. It’s easy now, I never longer miss it. I started back when the Saints did that stupid “Hands Up Dont Shoot” garbage that was based on a total lie. It was the last straw for me. The kneeling just gave me reason to stay away.

I’m sure they miss you

The Star Spangled Banner is done before every sporting event though and so far it being done at all has not hurt or killed anyone. Therefore, if there are people out there who do not want to hear it, what is so difficult about not being present while the song is being done?

God bless you always!!!

Holly

So far kneeling has never harmed or killed anyone. Whats so difficult about them being there and kneeling?

I don't remember ever saying such a thing about a person's decision to kneel instead of standing. I do however remember saying that if the standing can not be done, that the respect had better be shown in some way.

God bless you always!!!

Holly

P.S. Are hats still being removed at least?

What made you think you can demand someone stand to show respect to you?

I am not saying that the respect be shown to me. I am saying that it should be shown to those who deserve it.

God bless you always!!!

Holly

P.S. One more thing for those who have no intention of showing any respect: If you aren't going to show any, don't go expecting any in return.

Who told you that there was a designated person to determine who should be shown respect? Seems to me thats an individual choice. I certainly dont allow people to make the decision on who or what I should respect. Do you?

No one told me that there was a designated person to determine who should be shown anything, but since when do I have to wait for someone else to say or do something about it first? Unlike some people in this world obviously, when I see an empty blank that I myself have the ability to fill in, I don't just sit there and wait for someone else to take care of it, I get up off my behind and I do it myself. People who are lazy may not bother you, but they sure as heck do bother me!

God bless you always!!!

Holly

P.S. I am only saying that if you are going to show respect to anyone who has ever been on this planet, it should be towards those who are the reason why you have the freedom that you have in the first place and I don't believe that standing for them is like being asked for a million dollars.

I dont think because someone disagrees with your feelings about who or what should be respected that they are lazy. They just have a different opinion from you. For example I respect certain things that you probably have never heard of. I also have very little respect for some of the things you may hold dear.

Those veterans are not the reason I have the freedom I have. They were just chess pieces in a war in another country. Its time people got their heads out of their asses and stopped the fake worship of people that for all you know raped the locals while overseas. You see I was in the military so I know some of these people first hand. Also kneeling in protest has jack shit to do with veterans. Its stupid to even try to tie the protests to veterans in the first place.

But you have no problem with people waving the Confederate flag, which disrespects the US flag, anthem, Military.

Hypocrisy, it's a great thing.

And here’s an example of the authoritarian right, frightened by dissent, seeking to compel conformity through punitive measures – in this case ‘boycotting’ the NFL.

Because all protections only apply to the left.

The right is not worthy of protection.

Didn't the left tell you that ?

I have season tickets. There were many empty seats last season and it was very noticeable. In fact, my team's President sent a letter to fans acknowledging the kneeling has hurt attendance.

The NFL proved they support racists and they are unpatriotic. How are you going to penalize someone for exercising their constitutional rights to protest?

Learn something for once retard. They have the right, yes, but only on their own time. The owner has the right to fire their stupid asses.

They are on their own time time retard. The anthem is played prior to the start of the game.

smh.. They're in uniform at the stadium in front of paying fans. It's the team's time. Hard to believe you just typed that. lol

Really, get that remedial reading class I suggested. It's difficult to discuss anything with you when you are unable to understand what you read. You know big words like "authoritarian" and "punitive" but you don't know how or when they apply.
