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

    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

    Long time fan now a ex fan of the ravens don't disrespect the flag ? Kneeling for American's anthem and then standing for GB's is like spitting on every American who fought for this country will burn my ravens shirts today
    ...
    As a fan from
    DAY one, after that display today, I took off my jersey, and changed the channel. That was disgusting. Done with the NFL.
    ......
    Get off your knees..the Queen didnt knight you!!! NO KNEELING in a foreign country..save that BULL for this country...that gave you the right to protest!!! No purple today!!

    '''''
    What a shame the NFL is full of nothing but America hating crybabies. Go ahead and destroy the NFL, fellas. Let's see if you make millions working at Barney's used cars.
    .....

    This team makes me ashamed of you all. What are you protesting? bad cops? President Trump? Many hated Obama policies toward communism and curtailment of freedom, yet we took a civil approach and waited to vote
    him out of office. You look like fools.


    I grew up with the Baltimore Colts. Had season tickets. Lived a few doors down from the Shula family. Thought I died when they left Baltimore. Was beyond thrilled when the Ravens arrived.
    Been a Raven fan from the first game they ever played ......turned it off today and won't be watching any more games .
    '''''

    You are intoxicated by your Trump worship, and are not even thinking clearly.

    They are not protesting England or the Queen, mate.

    Besides, "God Save the Queen" is one of the most awesome tunes ever. Sex Pistols rule!

    Totally support the RAVENS who choose to take a knee. Prostesting injustice is American, racism should not be tolerated!
    ''''
    Piss off ravens. How dare you kneel. You had class but not anymore. Oh you stand for the U.K. Anthem! What does that say? You dumbasses.
    Backlash will be tremendous.
    '''''
    I have turned off the Ravens and am deleting them from all social media. If the NFL would put ALL CAMERAS ON THE FLAG DURING OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM, maybe some of the disrespect would stop.
    ''''''
    You lost a lot of fans today. Ungrateful rich players, most of which never served their country. Stay in London. You belong there.
    ''''''
    I will pay attention to your team and your league again when you decide to show some respect for the flag and the anthem and all those who risked life and limb to protect and defend them. Kneel on foreign soil? Disgraceful. We don't NEED the NFL. Might be wise to remember that.
    ''''''
    I can't believe that a team that plays practically in the backyard of the Star Spangled Banner would allow themselves to be part of this ridiculous behavior. Do they kneel down when they pick up the huge paychecks?
    '''''''
    FIRE ALL THE PLAYERS THAT KNELT
    ''''''
    In the trash where they belong. Sundays have just opened up for me.

    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!

    The flag doesn't represent Trump. It represents our country, and all those who died for our freedom.

    Get that through your thick skull!

    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.

    forget them too. I'm working -I have worked Sundays for 10 years and got used to not watching football.
    Lots of better things to do on Sunday then watch these pompous jerks

    No actually it was a big "Fuck You" to President Trump for his asinine statements Friday afternoon and everyone knows that.

    oh bullshit. this proceeds Trumps tweets.
    And Trump has a right to speak his mind too.
    But you make my point this is politics, not some grand kneeling for a "cause"

    Sure and the NFL has a right to disagree with his inappropriate and divisive comments. That won’t keep me from watching the game. What will keep me from watching the game is the NFL’s greed and making it to costly to watch, a nagging doubt in regards to brain injuries, and Andy Dalton’s inability to hit the broad side of a barn.

    It is the responsibility of every American citizen to own a modern military rifle.
