by Joshua Caplan

Several NFL stadiums are nearly empty post kick-off as the National Anthem controversy rolls into week 7.

Plenty of empty seats visible at the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida as the New York Jets play the Miami Dolphins.

If the NFL thought Americans would ease the backlash against the league — they were sadly mistaken. Photos of empty stadiums from around the league show how dire a situation kneelers have spurred. Stadiums were nearly empty in Week 6, as well.

I am not a football fan.  That said, I do think the owners should have Iistened to the fans and not their players.  Ya think?

Yet Buffalo, which has struggled to sell out tickets for years now, was packed.

Isn't cherry-picking grand?

The +90% of players who choose to stand certainly notice directly their livelihood slipping away due to a few on their team.

They could do something about it in the locker room if they wished to.  The fact they do not makes them complicit in their own self-destruction as a viable business enterprise.
