      NEW: "There has been no change in the NFL’s policy regarding the national anthem," the NFL says, adding that it has delayed enforcing any disciplinary actions surrounding player conduct during the anthem amid discussions with Players Association. https://abcn.ws/2OWuVfj pic.twitter.com/V68xbrHciY

          Patriotism is not demanding that people stand for the National Anthem. Patriotism is supporting the First Amendment rights of those who choose not to. #FridayMotivation #FridayFeelingpic.twitter.com/uvy9w8Q436

          Trump isn't going to get his way with this, the NFL isn't owned by the GOP.

          The NFL needs to grow a pair and lay down the law but all they really care about is MONEY. The public will have the final say in this issue either with their feet or their wallets.

          How about just worrying about the football game, remember the reason you’re watching? If you’re getting worked up over pregame stuff, maybe you shouldn’t be watching football, go attend or watch an event more fitting.

          Many players like @AaronRodgers12 (who do not kneel) vocally defend rights of players to exercise that freedom. Trumps offensive against sports could backfire. Note, when owners caved, players did not.

          If the NFL follows Trumps advice they will cause major problems, it's called Free Speech NFL. Remember, Trump was a Draft Dodger !

          The National Anthem is now sung with sadness - Trump has tainted it. Trump is so corrupt & has abused the office and denigrated so many fine agencies within our government Hope our democracy survives. #VoteGOPOut

          Americans have the right to protest. But players should do it on their own time! When they put that uniform on, they are on the job. How many of us have employers that allow political statements and protests while on the job? Fans want football and are tuning out the message.
