one guess at what the single term McNair would have been called if he said Obama was divisive and counterproductive....(which of course he absolutely was)

anyone, anyone, bueller, bueller? hint, it rhymes with 'bassist'....

McNair echoed other owners in a statement calling Trump’s comments “divisive and counterproductive.”
Remind me. What did Obama say about NFL players?

Yep, no end game whatsoever. But I also don't care. I watch the games because I like them, I wager on them, I play fantasy football, and I enjoy myself.

Why do you watch football?

The things you see now you never thought you would as a kid.

1.Congress messing around with steroids in a sports league. And the punishment is a suspension yet the average male gets arrested and has a felony.
2. People being described as genderless and a nationwide debate on where they should pee
3. Black hate groups yet they somehow are the victim and protest every living thing under the sun. They have more rights than the average middle class white guy.
4. NFL teams still being stupid with drafting black quarterbacks. From Andre Ware to Jamarcus Russel. Just stop.
5. A black President that was a complete failure yet his supporters are blind to the truth because "he is black" when he is actually mixed.

Looks like it clearly covers @POTUS and he appears to have violated or at least attempted to violate 18 USC sec 227(a)(2) on #KneelNFL issue

"Looks like"

"Appears"

You actually think that is fact or something.

You're funny too.

GREENVILLE, S.C. — A South Carolina restaurant owner is taking a stand and says he will longer show NFL games until players end the national anthem protests.
David McCraw, owner of Palmetto Restaurant and Ale House in Greenville, announced his decision after NFL players across the league kneeled during “The Star-Spangled Banner” on Sunday in response to President Donald Trump’s criticism of players opting to protest during the national anthem.
The president first posted his thoughts on Twitter Saturday afternoon.
“If a player wants the privilege of making millions of dollars in the NFL, or other leagues, he or she should not be allowed to disrespect our Great American Flag (or Country) and should stand for the National Anthem,” he wrote. “If not, YOU’RE FIRED. Find something else to do!”

BOOM!

‘Sunday Night Football’ Ratings Down Again On Day Of Player Protests

http://deadline.com/2017/09/redskin...r-trek-discovery-donald-trump-nbc-1202176141/

MAGA! :103631605




Was eating out last night & heard one party at a table overhear a separate party at another table, saying they are done watching or having anything to do with the NFL, and the ones who heard them tell them they weren't eavesdropping & said we are done with it too.

NFL & so-called experts thought it could never happen but ppl are shutting out the NFL little by little, more & more.

It it weren't for so many of us here sharing the same hobby interest, I'm sure some of us would be doing the same.

My nephew was an NFL ticket subscriber for as long as I can remember & he just cancelled..

People should find other things to do besides wasting their money attending the games anyway. Boycotting the NFL's main sponsors is another great idea.

NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE Personal Conduct Policy

All persons associated with the NFL are required to avoid “conduct detrimental to the integrity of and public confidence in the National Football League.” This requirement applies to players,coaches, other team employees, owners, game officials and all others privileged to work in the National Football League. For many years, it has been well understood that rules promoting lawful, ethical, and responsible conduct serve the interests of the League, its players, and fans. Illegal or irresponsible conduct does more than simply tarnish the offender. It puts innocent people at risk,sullies the reputation of others involved in the game, and undermines public respect and support for the NFL.

----------------------------

any questions?

Looks like Roger should actually be suspending protesters for "undermining public respect and support for the NFL"

is there any debate their actions are undermining public respect and support for the NFL? I hope nobody is stupid enough to argue they're not, because that should be obvious to EVERYONE. You don't have to agree with those people, but those people are out there none the less

Why doesn't anybody report the truth?



This game is far too easy

Lot of Raven fans around here are done. I saw multiple houses yesterday with all their Ravens memorabilia out front.
