      Hahaha - It aint just the millenials toking up - Them hippies have stepped up their green game, and I aint talking golf.

      And TV viewership is down across the board. FOX programming is actually down 20% ...

        Ehhhh, the original kneeler is that BBall player Mohamed. Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf

        Lets see quick google search and. Yup.

        But when asked about it, he didn’t back down in the slightest. Calling the flag “a symbol of oppression, of tyranny,” he said. “This country has a long history of that. I don’t think you can argue the facts. You can’t be for God and for oppression.”

        Please humor me and tell me what change you think that Colin (or Mohamed) has brought about in this country through his kneeling? From his pig sock, his castro shirts, to his adopted white parents, what positive outcomes have come to fruition through his protests of oppression (while making millions of dollars) ?

            Come one now, appeal to emotion/authority is a logical fallacy. **** that troop, regardless of the color of his beret. He speaks for no one but himself.

              I know exactly what their protests represented but thanks for reminding the ones that seem to have short memories... Very disturbing.. Wake up....

              Like I said "I'm done for good"!!!!

                    So if the kneeling is helping the ratings, and more people are watching NFL games than ever before, and it is helping out the country socially........why would the owners want to change the kneeling policy, which would theoretically lower viewership?

                    I am having a hard time logically following this.

                      Exactly. That his opinion and his alone...**** sure doesn't mean that's it's not disrespectful to kneel for the national anthem.

                      Not disrespectful to wear pig socks to make fun of LEO Jj?

                          could probably replace 99% of his politcal forum posts with "...eh" and it would be just the same.

                              I can't wait for football season! I'll watch 4 or 5 games a week and love it!

                              Are you blowhards gonna start a thread a week to tell everyone you aren't watching something?
