NFL preseason sees kneeling, raised fists, during national anthem

this is a discussion within the NFL Community Forum; I'm becoming more and more anti-NFL as more of these stories surface. I'm even becoming less enthusiastic about my Saints. Thanks Cam. I'm just not a huge fan anymore....

I'm even becoming less enthusiastic about my Saints. Thanks Cam.

You are not.
I dont know if you've seen some of my tailgating and crawfish parties, and posts, as well as my history as a Season Ticket holder who drives 6 hours to go to the Dome, but I've been a little more than "casual" in my fanhood, to make an understatement. My house has a Wall of Saints.
Every other piece of apparel I have has a Fleur, and my living room looks like a Black and Gold Hall of Fame.
-- I hate this sh*t and I dont care why or what they have to say about it.
I AM YOUR FREAKIN CUSTOMER, and either it stops, or I stop coming.

You nailed it. I never gave a sh*t what color anyone is, just what color their jersey is. My interest is damaged, and I honestly dont know if I'll ever be as interested as I once was. For the past 30 years I have bit, scratched, clawed to try to watch Saints pre-season games in TX. (only local NOLA tv has it) Year before last, I drove 30 miles to Baytown, TX, for better am radio reception, so I could listen to a Saints preseason game in my truck. I didnt watch a down of last week's game. Didnt look for highlights online, have no clue when the next game or opponent is, and cant tell you a thing about this year's regular season schedule. I used to preview the season, game by game.

So you want me to pay what? To see a bunch of guys who say What about my country? About the Police, who are my friends? About the Flag that my cousins fought in Vietnam under? And they sympathize with who? Same guys who were shooting at my cousins?

I thought these players were my guys, but I guess we really dont know them. They hate America (but they wont leave) and they hate people of different color. How is that different from a Klansman?

let Rezburna, and all the other black nationalists go and pay $150 for a seat, $30 for parking, $80 for beer and bad food, and stand in line, and sit in half-seats, and fight traffic all the way home. I also pay for hotels, rental cars, and all the other money you spend on the weekend in NOLA. You can hold up the Militant Hate Fist, and poop on the flag, and pay these guys overpriced salaries, and find out they dont give a damn about you.

You like it - You support it. I'm under no obligation. Its your money. I'll find other things to do on a beautiful Fall day.
