a) sugar, im not butthurt or upset. I am only responding to comments.

b)small fry, the irony is that you are the one butthurt over someone you have never interacted with and will never interact with. You are the one who said you would stop attending games if players continue to protest issues. These players, who would not acknowledge you if you were in a room with them because they do not know you. So twinkle toes, look in a mirror.

If the league allows this to become the norm, which will distract from the game, I will not continue to give them revenue. Sorry that offends you, snowflake. But keep up the good fight.

If someone not standing up for the anthem before a game distracts from your enjoyment of the game that follows, then you are the most sensitive human being in the history of this country.

Sorry snowflake, but you're the one getting all butt hurt over the opinions of strangers on an internet forum.

Is Kaepernick sitting or kneeling going to, in any way, interfere with your enjoyment of the game?

As I said in my first post, if the NFL allows players to continue to use their presence on the field to express social or political views, then yes, it is a distraction, and I will not renew my tickets next year.

should the NFL incarcerate him? will that make you feel better.

 

With a position like this, Kaepernick not only believes in the constitution more than you do, but does not have fascist/unAmerican tendencies like you have shown with this statement.

No, I don't think he should be incarcerated. He should be reprimanded, and if he still refuses to stand, he can stay in the locker room until after the anthem.

As far as the constitution, again...Kaepernick is on the clock. The COTUS does not apply. But the standards set by the NFL do. And to be honest, the NFL is allowed to set its own standards, but if I don't agree with them, it is my choice not to give them revenue. Again, I am paying to see football. When a player is on the field, he is paid to entertain me. He is not paid to school me on social injustice or politics. He can do that on his own time.

IMO, players should be held to a higher standard. Kaepernick is on the clock. His actions are a reflection of the NFL.

I am on my last year of my contact...4x FedEx Club seats. I will see this year how the NFL handles this. Unfortunately, it's a damned if they do, damned if they don't scenario. For me, I pay over $13,000 a year to watch football, not politics. If Kaepernick, or other players start making political statements on the field, I will not be giving the NFL my money next season.
