Donald Trump: I ‘Can’t Believe’ NFL National Anthem Debate Continues
by CHARLIE SPIERING 20 Jul 2018

President Donald Trump reacted to the latest development over the national anthem controversy plaguing the NFL.
“The NFL National Anthem Debate is alive and well again – can’t believe it!” Trump marveled on Twitter. “Isn’t it in contract that players must stand at attention, hand on heart?”

Trump commented on the story after the NFL released a statement https://www.breitbart.com/sports/20...otest-policy-pending-negotiations-with-union/ putting the new rule requiring players to stand for the national anthem on hold while they continued to negotiate with the NFL Players Association.

Trump mocked NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for failing to enact a solution and proposed his own penalties for players who refused to stand for the national anthem.

“The $40,000,000 Commissioner must now make a stand,” he wrote. “First time kneeling, out for game. Second time kneeling, out for season/no pay!”

My thought is to just let the players do what they want, then when NFL revenues sink far enough to hit the players pocketbook as a group they'll be enlightened.

Seems to be a good time for an AFL or some other competing football league to start up.

One thing Mattis can do is pull all military participation in NFL games and all the money DOD pays the NFL for such displays. No more flag at the games, no more reason to protest!! But also less money going into NFL coffers. Sorry for my extreme opinion but the protesters are already extreme IMO.

Your opinion is not extreme. When I grab a Bud and sit down to be entertained, I am not interested in some poor abused 10 million/year idiot who cannot spell NFL if you spot him 2 letters using my TV for his perceived bitch.

Instead there is Netflix, college softball, soccer, or even a good book.
