Lets Have OUR OWN PROTEST

Odd he's got no problem taking those checks to the bank that he gets for being able to play a game but he doesn't have the backbone to stand up for 3 minutes for the anthem. I'm tired of hearing about this topic but as long as this *** clown keeps it up then the media will keep talking about it

To all veterans and active duty, thanks for your service

Yep Danno. It would appear that the only thing in TEAM these days is ME! I too grow tired of all the "Look at ME!" players. What was that old expression? Oh yes "Act like you've been there before!" Not these days!

How many of these dumbasses HAVE been there before? (ie. NFL Champion)

I realize that I've become that old guy now.

I just can't stand pro athletes today. I wonder if its just my age or are there actually younger folks (30's and under) that find it offensive or repulsive as well.

I also wonder if the same folks that are OK with athletes disrespecting the flag would also be OK with some racist moron exercising his rights to hate Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, Jews etc...

It's a F'ed up world we're living in now. I just pray we all eventually come together.

I'm 32 and I feel much the same as you. And it's not just athletes, it's younger people in general. I look at people only 8-10 years younger than me and I realize I have very little in common with the overwhelming majority of them. I often wonder where all the sense has gone and I feel like I am one of the few reasonable people I know. Which isn't saying much because I have my fair share of unreasonable behavior myself. I agree though, messed up world and hopefully people wake up and realize God is trying to get our attention.

I'm 30, and I feel at least 20 years older next to people just a few years younger than me, let alone alone the one's who are at least 10 years younger.

I instantly feel a lack of genuineness when I'm around them. They walk around with these crap eating grins plastered on their faces, they copy everything everyone does, and they love to talk about mindless things. I try to say something thoughtful and they look at me like I'm an old grandpa telling war stories. But if I make a fart joke, then I'm cool. There are very few people younger than me who I genuinely respect.

These athletes are just beacons of what young people are turning into.

I am PAYING CUSTOMER. you are a PAYING CUSTOMER. We pay these whiny ass ******* millions of dollars to play a game.

ENOUGH! The NFL is not the government. It is a BUSINESS. It has the right to tell its employees how to act. WE pay them. They work for US, if we will just exercise that right.

Bring a little AMERICAN FLAG to the game Sunday, and lets all show them who we support. Im tight on time, because i have a business, but please pass this along to all the other boards... I dont know if this has a chance, but Lets wave our flags in the Stands Sunday, just to show them a little glimpse of who we are....

I cant do anymore than this... The rest is you.

I don't see how "you" paying millions has anything at all to do with them not kneeling. Personally I think it's a dumb way to make a statement but it's their right.

He's allowed to do it because the NFL (Goddell) doesn't have any balls to tell him to knock it off. If Keap was so serious about this cause then why won't he put his money where his mouth is: quit playing, quit getting paid millions and actually get out there and do something. Until he does that stand up and stfu
