Have you or anyone on the left ever had an "original thought" void of using some teleprompter talking point? The most obvious point is the freedom involved in deciding whether or not to stand. The facts are that we at home are not under contract to present a sporting event and then attempt to turn that platform into a political event. These players are paid good money to perform. Who wants to know or even care what they think about politics?
Its like the old axiom, "I went to a fight the other night and a hockey game broke out....". This is much ado about NOTHING. Even the president of the Untied States does not lose his right to express his opinion when elected. Yet....unlike the NFL payers....WHO YOU GIVE A PASS IN EXPRESSING THEIR OPINIONS while getting paid to do something else. What's the difference? The same for the NFL BLACK LIVES MATTER twits.....they have a personal opinion and if they want to sacrifice a chance at losing their fan base that supports their livelihood....GO FOR IT. Karma is hell. Its just like the stupid that supported Hillary last election...knowing she was in the wrong. They lost. This latest "in vogue" attempt to gain personal attention will also pass away like the Clinton Machine...what comes to mind is a "fart in the wind."
