The NFL just admitted Trump knows the fans better than it does
NY Post, Oct 11, 2017,  Charles Gasparino

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is on the verge of handing President Trump a significant political victory by calling on his players to stand for the national anthem.

For the first time since some players began taking a knee in protest of police misconduct, the commish officially and explicitly said he wants players to honor the anthem by standing — even as he respects their right to protest. He says the league will come up with a formal policy at next week’s owners meeting.

Goodell ought to be strapped to a trebuchet and launched into  the Pacific Ocean. He could have stopped all the nonsense in its tracks by suspending Kaepernick and issuing warnings to other teams and players that disrespect to the flag and country would not be tolerated.  Pete Rozelle would have done it in an instant.
