Being Black is disrespecting the flag because it reminds us of how great this country was when we owned you. When you didn't have a voice.

Another season of Barstool fans yelling people down during the national anthem at sports events. Thanks, NFL. Way to keep this an issue.

This like the scene in Animal House when they go to the black bar. IT MAKES ME WANNA SHOUT! Get a little softer now a a little softer now. Ok sorry. Let's all get along and sit Indian style during the anthem.

"First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season."

Flags havnt meant poo poo in years. People sign up for the army... That's fine. But I'm not going to be overtly respectful for that. It's their choice. Conscription doesnt exist anymore.

What happens during games on foreign soil? Are players required to stand for foreign anthems? What about foreigners?

The bullet casings they shot in grief at my dads funeral and gave to us meant more to me than the flag which I don’t even remember what we did with.

Mr. Nice! posted:Rooney already said that the owners left "disrespect to the flag/anthem" deliberately vague and that fists in the air would also count. The goal is to create something that will cause suspensions, because idiot conservatives want someone suspended for something. Doesn't matter what it is. If no one kneels, some black players will get fined and suspended for something invented. That's the point of it being vague.

My hope Is that the new Panthers owner will encourage players to kneel just because it'll piss off Trump. Of course, he'll probably just feel the need to play ball because they gave him the franchise in the first place. But I can still have my dreams dammit

Last season I had to be in Rochester for a long weekend and I went to a nearby dive bar to watch Thursday Night Football. The four other people there and I were getting along great and talking about football and what the Bills should do with Tyrod, but then the anthem came on and three of them went totally silent and put their hands on their hearts and stared at the TV screen.

What's disrespectful is this unpatriotic and unamerican attempt to suppress opinion and protest. My friends in the military feel that these rights are what they were protecting, anyways

I love that they don't realise that fining people for peacefully protesting is going to look far worse than the protests themselves.
