If any of the owners had a spine, they would be.

Perhaps if the NFL players don't care to honor the country in which they are playing, they should go play elsewhere.  I've never liked football in the first place and see these jocks as overpaid arrogant azzes.

I don't care what the NFL does, I'm not watching anymore.   This is about more than just the Anthem.

I very definitely do not believe that they should be fired. I believe that they should be defenestrated from the upper floors of Burj Khalifa
