SO the NFL (Not the teams, nor the players, but the National Football League itself) has folded regarding the “protests” at the National Anthem at the start of the games.
Apparently, the loss of revenue did what good sense couldn’t.
Huffpo has the letter (with commentary).
‘Bout fuckin’ time.
Now contrast the above with this.
(terrible singing, mind you, but the heart is there)
You believe that they will enforce this? Bench players? Stand up to the Union protests when the do?
They don't want to. I don't think they want to at all.
Hey, it is a start. and it shows that they have noticed the discontent. And likely that their wallets are noticing it too.
