No more Kneelers in the NFL

[RED]

The NFL owners just adopted a new rule that all the players on the field must stand and show respect for the anthem. I guess that means a lot of them will stay in the locker room. If I were a owner, those that do that would also get to watch the game from there.

[Vern Humphrey]

They're a little late -- many people who used to watch football will not be lured back by too little, too late.

[JB White]

Yup. Except for a handful of owners the NFL's newfound sense of patriotism is just showboating for revenues now. They should have listened to their players who were backed by an actual viewing public majority a year ago.
They didn't want to make waves back then. Screw 'em!

[blackhawknj]

I object to this lewd, crude and rude language to describe what should happen to them,
A pox upon them !

[hvymech]

I still, will not watch their games....ever!

[aintright]

They haven't done a damned thing . Staying in the locker room ? Same as Kneeling , screw them !

They should set the ball down in the center of the field at the final note of the Anthem. Whichever team picks it up and gets a touch down; gets possession of the ball and the touch down counts.

Then we would see how many owners will allow team members to stay in the locker room.

[leftyo]

they should have handled it after the first one or two occasions. not impressed!

[holdover]

they ate the goose that layed the golden eggs, now let them suffer from the lost revenue.

[Major Tom]

The NFL is doomed as far as revenues go. I have yet to see a Nascar or NHRA driver kneel during the ceremony.
