NFL: League NOT seeking mandate for players to stand during anthem

blackascoal said:
Indeed it had died down and few were kneeling until the Clown stepped in. How is it that you don't know that .. other then you're not a fan and don't know what's going on in the NFL?

"It seemed like the controversy involving NFL players kneeling during the national anthem had died down a bit — that is until President Trump stirred up a hornet's nest Friday night during a campaign trip to Alabama."

who the fuck is Doreen McCallister, and why should I care? I'm not a "fan" in that I've learned to not live and die with football.
Which doesn't mean I don't enjoy watching -just that I don't care about being a fan and all that entails.

I've seen enough of that 'wanna be Maoist' Kap kneeling on the sidelines w/ his posse -that it was aggrevating
(my splinter analogy). Trump merely bought it to a head.

This isn't about 'honoring' the flag. It's about a man/baby 'president' attacking black athletes when he should be trying to do the business of the US government .. a task he's failed MISERABLY at doing.

no. it's about getting one's worthless ass up in respect for the anthem. not "attacking blacks".
That goes for everyone. Respect the country that gave us the freedoms. Take that political crap elsewhere

I'm not suggesting nor asking that you care about anything. Where did you see that?

You're not a fan, don't watch football, but you made a false claim as if you do. I simply countered your false claim with fact.

AND, I have no illusions about you caring about black athletes or their cause .. which is certainly your right to do. No one cares if you don't.

'Respect the country' is bullshit from people who care more about worshipping a Clown then they do about this nation.

Your Clown has just isolated the US from most of the world .. and here you are talking about 'respect the country.' :0)

You can believe whatever you want .. I have no problem with what you believe.

Ted Cruz warns of "Watergate-style blowout" in 2018

Sen. Ted Cruz on Friday warned that Republicans could face significant losses in the 2018 midterm elections if they fail to enact any major part of their agenda.

"If we do nothing, if tax reform crashes and burns, if Obamacare nothing happens, we could face a bloodbath. I think we have the potential of seeing a Watergate-style blowout," the Texas Republican said at a Koch brothers donors meeting at the St. Regis Hotel in New York.

Sen. David Perdue, R-Georgia, echoed that same concern: "If we fail right now to deliver a meaningful tax package that stimulates the economy... if we don't get that done, we'll be the minority party for the next 50 years to 100 years just like we've been for the last 100 years ..."

Exactly lol.

I can't wrap my brain around the democrats optimism. They seem to think nothing else matters but Trump's approval numbers.

But here's the deal: there is Trump and there's the Trump movement. If Trump was abducted by aliens today, tomorrow the Trump movement would still be chugging along without him. What that translates into is that there's a sizable segment of voters [many of them Obama voters] who will never go back to business as usual.

They won't go back to open immigration policy. They won't go back to putting climate change ahead of economic issues. Voters in the Rust Belt and the working class more generally, won't go back to being ignored while democrats pander to the victim class of the day.

They're over it. And unless democrats can do some 'fundamental transformation' they are going to remain a minority party for at least the near term.

That's nothing but a pep rally speech by Cruz, to encourage the passing of legislation. I can't believe that you would pin all your hopes on that little speech.

LMAO

There is an American backlash against the leftwinger's racist, bigoted "identity politics" ... as there should be.

Speaking of the NFL a credit suisse analyst lowered Fox's earnings forecast because of declining NFL ratings. This is just one analyst but the bottom line of the league is clearly being hit.

It’s just not clear that it’s all because of protests. It may come as a surprise that vast numbers of people don’t give a shit about the protests and isn’t even a factor of why they have stopped watching. I went from watching football every Sunday, often two games a Sunday to maybe watching half a dozen a year. My main reason is the excruciatingly slow pace of play and all the time outs, commercial breaks and over zealous officiating has made NFL football dreadfully boring to watch. There’s 11 to 12 minutes of action in a typical 3.5 hour NFL telecast. That, soaring cable cost and an abundance of entertainment options are driving the NFL’s viewer decline. If these protests ended tomorrow the NFL viewer rates would still continue to decline unless the NFL does something to address the real issues driving that decline.

These protest are just another straw on the camels back

Identity politics has run its course. And I don't know if democrats just don't realize it or if they're just in denial because they're clueless over what to do about it.

You knuckleheads haven't gotten shit accomplished since the Clown has been in office .. and Trump has THE lowest approval in American history .. and unbeknownst to political neophytes like yourself, the party in power almost always loses seats in the midterms.

ridiculous. i care abou so called "equal justice" and I know there is a problem w/rogue cops.

But it's not more then that either - Kap and company rant on abut institutional racism -
while kneeling there and collecting millions? give ME some of that "institutional racism"

I don't expect you to agree.
You never seem to see the USA is self correcting and has not only given us the civil rights movement,
but has established a viable black middle class.

Not too shabby for a "racist" country. eh?

Take that shit elsewhere. Get their worthless asses up!

Let'm kneel, let'm lock arms, let'm roll out a charcoal grill and make hot dogs, whatever......they've shown what they are and what they like to do on the job. They're privileged, spoiled and elite having nothing in common with the fans who for the most part must obey bosses at their jobs and leave personal baggage and worldly concerns at home. Their precious money will dry up because they've doomed their own business. They can go back home and pump gas for a living. They have spit in the faces of people of all races, colors and national origin whose money they took for their own millionaire lifestyle. Let'm pay for their own sjw causes.

Wrong. With the NBA starting up, we're going to see a larger movement that addresses the issue that you wish to ignore.
