Facts. If we can’t “bring politics into sports” by kneeling then they shouldn’t “bring politics into sports” by playing the racist anthem
-
Please explain how its racist

Google the 3rd verse of the National anthem. Francis Scott key was the writer of the anthem and he was a slave owner.
-
Damn near everyone that was at the head of the government owned slaves even washington that has no bearing on what it means as a whole. Not to mention the made it so any black man that served during the war long enough earned his freedom also slavery was going on long before
-
It's actually not the third verse of the National Anthem. It's the third Stanza in the Poem "The Defense of McHenry" from which the Anthem was taken. That stanza has never been an official part of the Anthem. Only the first stanza is used.

If Germany’s national anthem included a stanza from a Hitler poem, what that still be okay?

the solution stand respect the flag & everyone person that fought for our freedom---complain on your own time---then say your thoughts...not that tough

Funny, my husband served for 13 years and he sees no issue with players kneeling! He swore to defend the constitution not a piece of fabric or a poem turned into a song!
-
I served as well and my problem is simply I watch football to have 3 hours where I don't have to see everything that's wrong in the world it's my mini retreat.
-
There isn't any football being played during the anthem so I don't see what you're getting at. Nothing is interrupting you watching football.
-
that piece of fabric means something --- did you both bump your head??? get real
-
Yea, the fabric spread across a football field means something. Makes sense.

If you put your company out of business, NO ONE gets paid.
Let that sink in. #winzoraps -
You think the NFL is going out of business?
-
They will if the
@nfl owners continue with their racism and greed -
They will if folks stop watching games and spending money on them.
-
And why would we do that ? I'm always going to be a fan & spending my money !
-
Same here. NFL going nowhere. My racist father bitches about the kneeling constantly, but guess who's watching & going to Texans games.
-
Tell your dad if he doesn't like the kneeling then he needs to stop going to the games and watching ! Have you explained to him why they are kneeling ? Nothing to do with flag ....
