    Kneeling might lead to a 15 yard penalty under new rules

    That’s asinine. The NFL continues to show why it’s the absolute worst.

    And they want to leave it up to the home team about whether or not the teams can come out for the anthem.

    Fucking bullshit. This was hardly an issue anymore until our fucking president injected himself into the story.

    exactly. its what was done prior to 09 for primetime games. The day games they were on the field but the anthem wasnt deemed important enough to show it on broadcast.....

    How about at every game, both teams kneel, resulting in offsetting 15 yard penalties to start the game until the stupid rule is eliminated.

    This is possibly the stupidest rule I have ever heard of. And yeah, I agree with Mickey, leaked on purpose to gauge general response by fans. They don't give a shit what the players think of it.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    The rule went through. Players can choose to stay in the locker room during the anthem.

    Do you know how many people there are that don't remove their hats, talk constantly, buy beer, nachos, etc. while the anthem is playing?  Everybody offended by kneeling is a hypocrite.

    dumb move by the NFL.  You've just put the issue on the front pages again.  it would have played itself out if you had let it be.  Plus you've legitimized Trump's and his followers complaints about it.

    Wonder if the owners will not sell beer during the national anthem to ensure as many people as possible are paying attention and respect?

    So teams will be fined if a player kneels during a song....but not if a player beats the hell out of their wife.

    This will be added as an "accomplishment" to MAGA and people will love it. Yuck.

    Not that it will happen, but it would be great to see some support by teams to all just remain in the locker room.

    I don't actively watch the NFL, but I turn on games just to catch the odd play here and there while I'm generally busy with getting things ready for the week for me and the kids. 

    That changes now. The TV stays off. Fuck the NFL.

    Listening to the radio and a caller equated kneeling to terrorism. This is the stuff that worries me.

    We live in an incredibly stupid country that seems to value ignorance more and more every day.

    Man, i's so sick of hearing this BS. 

    I usually listen to Sports talk radio, but i had to turn it to NBA Sports talk radio, so i can actually hear sports talk.

    Announcer: We will now sing the National Anthem. We demand the fans shut the fuck up and stand.  Get out of the bathroom and the beer line and sing with hand over heart.  If not get the fuck out.
