    Trying to get attention because you're angry isn't always a thing to be admired, is it?

    Is that just a Right or Left issue?
    What does any of that have to do with the NFL?

    If Americans want to pledge to the flag or stand for the anthem, I'm all for their right to do so. Unlike cons who want to force their version of patriotism on me and others.

    I never felt "oppressed" until the Orange Hog started bloviating drastic penalties on those who don't act as he wants them to.

    Hey dumb ass you don't have picket lines till there is a strike and at that time they are not on the job nor getting paid by the company.

    Think I'm wrong try picketing your company and see how long you have a job.

People are in line for the bathroom, for concessions, coming from the parking lot and that list goes on as well. I have witnessed plenty of times where people don't give two shits about the anthem so obviously they aren't big on patriotism either but NOW, oh boy, now it's stand or you're unAmerican.

    Hypocrites.

    If you didn't give a flying fuck how she feels you wouldn't keep addressing comments towards her or about her. How hard is that to understand? We ignore people we don't give a flying fuck about.

    Clearly YOU are the one suffering from lack of English comprehension.

    There are consequences, as you mention...Kaep has no job....
    And that was the risk he took.

    We all have a better understanding of a poster who's only purpose on this forum is to chirp out "good morning" and then immediately set to bashing others.

    Because the anthem isn't played during the game and yes it is a lot of money and yet people still waste their time not watching the game. Go figure.
