NFL endorses criminal-justice reform bill in the midst of anthem debate
Quote:
Goodell's winking and nodding at the kneeling players will probably just encourage them to take it further, not make them respect the country again. The NFL will not be better off for bowing to them. Look at Mizzou. The NFL doesn't seem to understand what's happening here at all. Fans do not want the NFL to be political. Fans are not going to be amused by Roger Goodell wading into politics. ESPN has already made this mistake by becoming another politicized media outlet... it's fascinating that Goodell thinks the way to resolve the fan ire over this conflict is to make the NFL more political. |

You should not end up in jail for being a user though in my opinion. Treatment is a much better use of the resources we put into that.

This is more along the lines of what I was getting at. What they're doing isn't going to do anything to stop systemic racism. It's largely out of the control of Joe football fan and Joe stuck in traffic because protesters are blocking the freeway. All they're doing is pissing people off. |

Meanwhile Chris Long donated 10 game checks to charity (and has already donated his previous 6) and doesn't kneel for the Anthem. Quote:
I cant wait to see how many of these kneeling players follow suit. |

Straw man argument. Like the "soon people will be marrying turtles" argument over same sex marriage. Silly and unhelpful.

The NFL has yet to contact me. I'd like to discuss my inequality relative to everyone employed by the NFL.

They should've done what the NBA has done, send out a league wide memo reminding players of the leagues expectations and make that the end of it. But Goodell is a foaming LWNJ who struggled to explain to his children why Trump was elected.

I suggest you look up the word "strawman", you clearly don't know what it means.

And what's certainly not going to end are the taunts of players who continue to protest during the anthem.

To be fair, he purports to be, just like John McCain, and we all know John McCain is either not a Republican, or a traitor to his party.
But Roger is in a tough spot, his primamadonna employees are liberals and he needs them more than they need him.
