Come on boys ... it is way past time for you to allow your intellects to finally develop beyond your single-digit years. When the players are at the game, they are at work. They are employed by the franchise owners who provide the workplace for them to apply their athletic skills. The childish, anti-American antics of the players who wish to publicly display their personal hatred for our country infuriates the fans who pay all of the bills for the franchise owners and the players. Therefore, the players' public temper tantrums do irreparable harm to the very business that supports their lavish lifestyle. So, the franchise owners have every right to forbid the display of such childish antics in their workplace. If these players wish to throw their temper tantrums, fine ... do so on their own time and in their own space. Otherwise, they can simply choose to not make their living playing in the NFL ... because playing football is NOT a right ... the self-destructive dipsh!t Colin Kaepernick is in the process of discovering that FACT, right now. No one has denied them their First Amendment rights ... the franchise owners have simply, and quite properly, denied them their preferred venue. Let these players start their own football league if they want to ... they can pay for the field, the equipment, the TV cameras that they love to preen in front of, and then see if they can put the butts of fans into the seats of their stadiums, eh?
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
