Fox Sports host Terry Bradshaw blasted President Trump on Sunday after Trump said that NFL players who refuse to stand for the national anthem should be fired or suspended.

“If our country stands for anything, folks, it’s freedom. People died for that freedom. I’m not sure if our president understands those rights. That every American has the right to speak out, also to protest," the longtime Fox commentator said.

"The president of the United States came out attacking NFL players for them exercising their freedom of speech. While I don’t condone the protesting our national anthem, this is America," he said.

I didn't expect this reaction from Bradshaw.  I am truly surprised and disappointed in him.

They don't have a right to protest on someone else's time or dime.

They are employees in the entertainment business. Nothing less, nothing more.

Bradshaw is making a fool of himself.

Wouldn't it be 'something'...if FOX fired Bradshaw for this stunt?

If they were smart, they would.     ...same 'strategy' as ESPN dealing with Rush Limbaugh regarding "black" QBs.
