You really want employers to have the power to make you stand for a song?
Wealthy white owners put some profit over the peaceful voice of their players, a majority black league by the way... I stand with the players... NFL isn't getting a dime from me, already cut cable. If I see it in a TV it wont be on my dime or my ratings.
Colin Kaepernick is the most important athlete since Ali, mostly because of the POTUS and short sighted NFL ownership. Bravo for elevating the message and power if peaceful protest. Nike sales are booming. Dont be on the wrong side of history
#2 - I'm the one being played by trump? Lol You're the guy that voted for him and has been coming in here the past two years screaming and yelling in his support. Who's getting played? Fucking hilarious, bro0 -

I dont think that should be taken lightly, no matter how entertained you are
Agreeing or disagreeing with a mediocre QB whose career was already winding down and who then turned down $14 million that he already had guaranteed to him and then whining that his career plan didn’t work is completely besides the point.
My office has a dress code I must follow. It has a non-defamation and injury to business policy. Yes, I can do what I want, but they have every right to prosecute such actions according to those policies as they see fit. And I don’t even have a contract that says so. NFL players do.
You can have any opinion you want about the situation including double secret probation, triple lindy boycott. That’s also your prerogative. But, in effect all you’re doing is proving why the owners did what they did and are well within their rights to do so to protect their business interests right, wrong or indifferent.The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem.
During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.

And regardless, that has nothing to do with the fact that this is a work place issue. If the football players don't want to follow the rules set by their employers, that is their prerogative - that is where freedom of expression exists. None of the owners are arresting their players for kneeling. They are simply enforcing clearly stated work place rules. The fact that theirs is a public place doesn't change that fact. They may be right, wrong, indifferent in kneeling and where socks that depict police officers as pigs. Completely besides the point.
BUT - they must also accept the repercussions related to their work place rules as we all must.
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.0 -

I'm sorry but the workplace side of this argument is a lazy and convenient one.
Its funny to me the "America First" crowd seem to hate peaceful protest so much... while at the same time seem so willing to hand over all control and power to their overlords, their employer!
Fuck the owners, let your players use their platform peacefully.
And yes, i think its disgusting Kap wore socks depicting police as pigs, I'm actually very pro law enforcement. I just dont see issues as simply black & white, things tend to be a bit more complicated than that
But feel free to go salute your CEO and stand for Yellow Brick RoadPost edited by my2hands on0 -

My relationship with my friends, and after 20 years of doing this league, is far more important than the NFL. Plus they dint get a dime from it.
Also if the Eagles make the playoffs, which they will, I will be likely turning in. Our owner is progressive and supports the players, we also have some of the best outspoken players in the league on this issue with Malcom Jenkins and Chris Long... so once the calendar hits 2019, and my squad is playing for another chip, I will likely support them.
Of course that wont be pure enough for some in this toxic era where compromise is seen as weakness or hypocritical, but guess what, I dont give AF brotherPost edited by my2hands on0 -

Show me evidence of either of us screaming and yelling in support of Trump and I may back off. I, for one, have been critical of him often. Are you a screaming and yelling Clinton or Bernie supporter? Maybe or maybe not, but I would not make that claim without something to back it up.
False accusation and demonizing people does not help you make points and is just disrespectful, frankly.

But, let's put the silliness aside for a moment. There are policies my organization has/had that I disagree with. Many I go with b/c it's really not that big a deal. A couple I think are not productive nor conducive to a good work environment. So, I sit down with my boss(es) and maybe HR and have a discussion. and you know what? Sometimes they adjust and sometimes they don't.
The players claim the NFL is a monopoly. It is not. Why didn't Colin mediocre QB head to the CFL? Pretty much every elite Female Basketball player in the US does exactly that (well, not Canada, but Russia and other non-US based leagues).
And to your characterizations of me, I can save you the time - I am a fiscal conservative and social liberal. I believe government impacts the former while society fixes the latter. Therefore, I vote based on a fiscally conservative line realizing many times I have to put with the religious right influence in such a choice. Sort of like the compromises you speak of in your NFL stances.
In terms of Trump, I've never supported HIM per se. I have supported his underlying fiscal policies and stances against Political Correctness. However, in terms of stuff like did he sleep with Stormy Daniels and what does a private conversation with a bad tv reporter mean? I don't get distracted by it much like you don't get distracted by Hillary attacking Bill's victims and then saying - well - any wife would do that (which may be true, but she wasn't running for wife - she was running for President).
So, characterize people how you want and use pejorative language to do so, but as you say, stuff is not so black and white.
Yes, I did vote for Trump. No, I don't support all his shenanigans. An most certainly, I'm not walking anything back. And quite frankly, liberals would do themselves quite a bit of good if they put their self righteousness aside and realize they're not always right, nor are they perfectly clean when it comes to all the things they are accusing "them" (whoever them is) about and most people who elected our current President are probably much more like me than the idiots they see on tv.
And for the record, I never watch the National Anthem on an NFL game, and couldn't care less about stand, sit, back flip. I do think it's a douchey thing to do and counter to what they're trying to accomplish, but it didn't change a single thing in my life. Trump did Colin mediocre QB a favor.Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.0 -

My only issue with @EdsonNascimento post is that I don't know how a fiscal conservative can be pleased with Trump's economic policies. Fiscal conservatism does not mean tax cuts, without restriction. It's cowardice to cut taxes without touching defense or entitlements. But that's a whole other argument that I would love to have with any conservative.0
