Yellow flag flies...New NFL penalty being discussed by owners

Nope. It’s not. It’s a peaceful protest against the treatment of minorities by law enforcement.

Dissent will always get the masses disapproval.

Hell George Washington and Ben Franklin were against the Boston Tea Party.

I bet the vast majority of those against the dissent could not be victims AKA older white guys.

How could anybody do this to our flag? Well its their flag too. also their country too. and their anthem also.

The new rule is actually the old rule. LOL.

Allan

And it is the fan’s money and choice as to whether they attend or not.

They spoke through their pocketbooks and prevailed. :grin:

will they come back now that the rules have changed.

Allan

That’s up to each individual fan. I can’t speak for everyone.

Is kneeling in Church disrespectful to God?

And te fans did not pay to watch them stand for an anthem or a flag.

Except that’s exactly what you’ve been doing.

The fans have spoken. It’s over.

except its not. Story will get a lot of play at least in some of the games.

what happens when a player comes out and kneels for the anthem. (you know its gonna happen)

Allan

You’re not “the fans” and we’ll see if it’s over.

Then the team gets fined and the owner will take action against the player.

I can speak for those like myself who quit attending or even watching.

Not every owner will take any action against the players.

You think they will just eat the fines? Really?

Yes, you know why? Because some have said they would, because they respect America and what makes it great, like peaceful protestants.

The Jets have already came forward and said they will

Then they will face the same problem of diminishing crowds and tv audiences.

Disrespecting the flag and anthem in no wise make America great except possibly to the left.

Where is your evidence that “kneeling” has diminished crowds and TV audiences?
