I am not a lawyer but I don't believe so. It's just that most businesses don't have insane policies about the national anthem built into their contracts. If I worked at a company that played the national anthem every morning, that'd be really weird but fine, whatever, let me do my job while it plays. If I was forced to stand every morning and put my hand over my heart or whatever, otherwise I'd get disciplined or lose my job, that's p. hosed up.

...though in elementary school we had to stand and recite the pledge of allegiance every day so that explains a lot about why we are where we are right now, I guess.

Teams are allowed to dictate punishment for players for violating the policy even if the teams have to pay the fine. Johnson is the only owner that has came out and said “idgaf, kneel, stand, sit, i got your back regardless”

So there is this franchise called Mission BBQ in NE Ohio, it's covered in patches unit insignia and all sorts of veteran pictures. Ok cool whatever, the food is decent but they do this one super annoying thing. At noon every day an announcement is played asking everyone to stand for the loving national anthem and then they play it. It is the most loving agitating thing I've ever experienced somewhere where I'm just trying to grab a bite to eat.

Eh it's not that bad. The light isn't great but there's some cool red stripes on the shoulder. A couple more highlights like that, maybe on the legs or something and it'd be pretty decent

How am i reading what he said wrong? Other people like stephen jones have came out only to say stuff like glad everyone is forced to stand. I read a statement from him earlier that said he stands by whatever his players choose to do whether that’s kneel, stand, or sit. I may have read something wrong.

Add an obese person with a mobility scooter, AR-15 and a MAGA hat and that’s pretty much how Europeans imagine the US to be.

The greatest part is if this joint was on a military base there'd be a mad rush for either the bathrooms or the doors at noon because nobody wants to have to stand in place for that poo poo.

Like, Jesus Christ, they don't even do poo poo like that at McP's.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one to Flavortown, and that has made all the difference.


Looking forward to every team taking a 15 yard penalty for kneeling during meaningless preseason games.

Kinda dumb pandering solution: players should kneel until the support for service month. Then stand, show the idiots that it has nothing to do with 'are troops'


Or just kneel all the time.

The right-wing redefining what people are protesting for as something that has absolutely nothing to do with what they are protesting is a tradition that goes back decades. It's not an honest mistake.
