Ravens take a knee in London, but stand for God save the Queen.

I hope they all keep disrespecting America. And, I hope more and more people pull their financial support, not buying tickets and swag and not buying from their televised sponsors. It's no longer the National Football League...it's Nobody's Football League because they do not respect or represent the Nation. Let'm all get paid $15/hour by Sharpton, Jackson, Waters and the BLM. None of these modern playas could even carry the water for the Hall of Fame greats of the past. Good riddance to all of'm.
 
You seem rather angry, Sir Rantsalot. The Ravens who naughtily knelt are making a political statement. That makes this a political topic.

Are you drunk, or are you always like this?
He hasn't had a drink for thirty odd years, or so he says. So to compensate he gets shitfaced instead, that is when he's not sailing the Atlantic looking for Moby's Dick!
 
Protests Intensity: Pittsburgh Steelers to stay in locker room during anthem in response to Trump's protest criticism
The protests only intensified ahead of the 1 p.m. games, with Pittsburgh Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin telling CBS that the team would remain in the locker room rather than take the field.


That should make Squeelers fans happy. :rofl2:

my team..no more I'm done with them.
I do not see the Baltimore Orioles doing this-and Adam Jones is a big fighter of racism.

It's a grotesque disrespect for the flag, which is representative of the republic as a whole.

If you want to fight racism, then do something about it. donate your time for inner city youths, or whatever.
This is not the venue for a grotesque display of anti-Americanism

They'll miss you!
 
Absolutely disgusting. Why don't they move back to Africa if they hate the flag and US so much? or to the UK, since they stood for theirs.

This is unbelievable. BOYCOTT THE NFL!

Yeah, move back to Africa niggers!

So freedom of speech and the First Amendment mean nothing to you?

I'm sure the Ravens will miss your uhhh 'support.'

first amendment doesn't apply here.
"free speech" applies to freedom from government sanctions -private corps can hire and fire at will -
providing the don't discriminate,or violate union contracts etc

PS, facebook is full of peeps sayigg they are done with these shenanigans. I posted a cross section of responses
 
I don't watch it that much and I don't miss it.
I did my days of living and dying by the Baltimore Colts decades ago.

Yes we are in the realm of politics - i think we agree on that

... and football doesn't miss you either.

Don't like football, who cares?

BULLSHIT. It's why it's the FIRST Amendment.

This nation was founded on protest .. or are you unaware of that?

Freedom of speech applies to PROTEST as well.

He's all yours conservatives!

But I can't help but notice the deafening silence from conservative posters and Trump-ettes in the face this daily unabated vortex of rightwing racism on this website (henceforth known as Stormfront 2).

I find it remarkable that a lot of rightwing posters find the time to chase and harangue Desh, Jarod, and other lefties all over the board, while remaining quite as church mice in the face of the mentally deficient rightwing racists they choose to make allies with.

surely you know the first amendment?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.


see the mention of Congress ( government) ? private corps have "moral clauses"
(old fashioned term -not sure what it is now) where by CONTRACT LAW governs prohibited behaviors
 
I like it.
but it doesn't mean anything to me other then watching a bunch of spoiled millionaires abuse their fans

My question .. who gives a fuck?

The NFL is a money-making juggernaut .. doesn't give a fuck about YOU .. does care about their FANS .. which obviously you're not.
 
not your mate,not your friend -fuck off.

This has nothing to do with Trump..It's a bunch of unfocused millionaires who look for EZ points to fight racism..
if they want to do something, volunteer their time to help oppressed inner city youths.
Baltimore is full of poverty. Poverty leads to crime, crime leads to police confrontations. Help break that cycle.

No thinks. I'll take the sentiment , and battle worn Star Spangled Banner any day.
Our country was born by battle Celebrate the hard won freedoms.

There are many black athletes that work for and support projects that better the lives of inner city kids.

This latest rounds of protests has everything to do with Trump.
