I just sent an e-mail off to the KC Chiefs--others should do the same for their local team

or if the coach says stand, or sit out.

 

Are you really that ignorant of the world round you? People wear Trump hats to and at work. People wear campaign buttons. People wear T-Shirts.

Can you really be this ignorant?

Wait. Of course you can.

 

im sure you're allowed to wear whatever you like while you deliver papers.

but other people, especially those in professional fields, keep their opinions to themselves.

 

Wants? What the hell does "want" have to do with it.

Those guys kneeling during the anthem have "wants," why are your "wants" more important or more appropriate than theirs.

When you stand during the anthem YOU are expressing YOUR opinion.
When players choose to stand or kneel during the anthem THEY are expressing THEIR opinions.

You want me to shut up? Try a little less stupid in your arguments.

 

You people are certifiable with this absurd politicization.

Makes me sick.

 

Thanks for the obvious, Mr Obvious

 

so you can't answer the question, ok.

standing for the anthem is like holding a door open for someone or using your turn signal, it's something expected of you because its the decent thing to do, and only an A hole wouldn't do it.

 

Awww...
Is ums all upset because the big bad Dado hurt um's feewings? Poor little man. Poor, poor, little man.

Of course no one would ever wear something to express their opinion while working...

No one's ever worn a Trump hat at work or worn a campaign button.

No one. No one ever.

Geez, the dumb just keeps on comin.

 

No, it is not. Try to be a little less stupid in you analogies.

Standing during the anthem is expressing an opinion. Nothing more.
Not standing is expressing an opinion.

Like a good little fascist you demand those opinions you don't like be silenced.

That's a good little Alinsky follower.

 

Which would be a violation of the labor contract in addition to terrible coaching.

 

I would say it's more out of respect for fans and country, clearly he has none for either I hope some good ol boy snaps his knees back 45 degree's!

 

Honestly, if I got that email and I was in charge, I would see this is a spit in the ocean. The issue of standing or kneeling during the National Anthem is such a irrelevant issue. If you are bothered over that, maybe you should just skip that part of the game. Is that too much to ask?

People aren't going to require people to put a hand on their heart during a tune. Not here, not in Canada, nowhere. I am not a football fan but I would encourage people who are offended over what Kaspernick did to skip that part of the game, and not to waste anyone's time or resources writing a email that will not matter in the grand scheme of things.

 

Lets start by firing Godell, and getting a leader with some balls.

 

What if their in box gets flooded with letters like mine.

 

What a load of nonsense.

A) I think it is silly to play national anthem's at sporting events anyway. Take NHL games, for example. Every single NHL team has several players not from the country the team plays for. Why the heck should a Russian or a Swede or a Canadian stand for the American national anthem? That is silly. If they want to...fine. But forced to? Completely nonsensical.
B) Anyone who will not go to a game STRICTLY because every player on their team is not standing for the national anthem is going to the games for the wrong reason anyway. It's a sport - not a political rally.
C) Anyone who even cares if someone else does or does not stand for their national anthem needs more hobbies as it is clear their lives are not full enough. I could care, friggin' less if someone stands for the national anthem or not. They can stand, sit, yawn, chat, give 'the finger' or almost anything else...I DON'T CARE - and that is the way everyone should be.
It is none of anyone else's business what someone else does during the national anthem (provided it is legal). And if you do care - like I said - find a new hobby...you need it.

 

Says it all, pretty much.

 

The moderators dont like personal attacks like that.

 

Frankly? I don't care what the athletes do. I don't get easily triggered like that.

 

You guys really should not be fretting over it like it was a deed by a Satanist. My knee aches, I got injured during a game, should I not be able to rest because you guys are so offended over me resting my knee? Think about the absurdity of this issue dude.

 

Ever heard of Tradition.

 

As Franco Harris, a Steeler great says, those players refusing to pay honor to this nations anthem, do so wearing the teams suit, with the team not in agreement with them squatting or sitting. They cause focus to be on them, not the team. The rest of the team gets tarnished when men being paid to do a job operate in a hateful way to the nation. They did it to Obama as well so it is not due to Trump.

To respect this nation.

 

You and your ilk, the supporter of "freedom of speech" are a bunch of hypocrites. You cry like little girls, accusing antifa, BLM, leftists and whatever else for "removing" hate sites like Stormfront from the internet. Yet now you cry like little girls, demanding the NFL to enforce a rule to stifle....freedom of speech. You and your ilk continues to go to games despite the fact that the league is full of drug users, wife beaters, animal abusers. The hypocrisy stinks.

 

Said who? you are not their boss.

 

Then go buy your own team and enforce whatever rules you want.
