    It was never about rights.

    It was about a bunch of dumb *******s who wanted to spew their hate and a limp dick organization too scared to tell Black bigots to show some respect while on the job.

    LOL...I need to ask because they relocate every five to six years.

    I lived for years just down the street from their summer training camp
    not that I'm a fan in any way at all. I've just always hated them.

    I guess they'll be training now in Elko or Pahrump? LOL..
    Oh well, at least they are used to the hookers there...

    Question for everyone. Would this ad have been proposed if there had not been the protests against standing ?

    In the Fred market a media does not have to accept your ad.

    I don’t see how. It was a reaction to the action of the kneeling players.

    What if we were stil living in the pre civilrights days and a group wanted to post an ad that said "desegregate football. " Would that be political statement?

    How about " God wants the races to be separate" Is that a political statement?

    Heh, ya.

    I'd love to see what would have happened if the NFL had rejected those sappy ridiculous pro-immigration/invasion ads that ran the previous years.

    Yes that is what it seems like. Before that Klinkerbach guy did his kneeling bit we did not have to ask people to stand.
    So Klinkerdink made this a political deal.

    If the ad does not involve beer or cars or snacks I do not watch it.

    I do not support the protests against the anthem but what "hatred" are they spewing and whybare they Black bigots? Those are strong words and they need some back up.

    Speaking of sappy ads do not want to see any ads about starving children in Kapustastan.

    I also do not want to see any more ads by the liars who ran the Wounded Warrior Project ... they were fraudulent.

    funny that zbr used the term "black bigots" when so many white athletes are also kneeling during the anthem - a couple of weeks ago half the Macalester college (St Paul, MN) girls basketball team took a knee and they were all white - as were their parents and others who did the same!

    I will not be watching the super bowl, but I’m willing to bet the commercials feature more blacks than whites, population ratios be damned.

    The DOD has spent billions of dollars to advertize and propagandize in sports programming over the years. They do it to popularize and gain support for their militarism/imperialism all over the world and they use it to gain support for the spending of trillions of dollars per year to fund undeclared wars/illegal occupation all over the world and they use it as a recruitment tool. Nothing else.
