I find it very interesting that the NFL is siding with their liberal bed partners at ESPN, but not surprised. They are so concerned about the players constitutional rights, they are all but encouraging these asinine displays of disrespect. This is from a guy, Roger Goddell, who was the chairman of the Los Angeles Olympic Games, that does not tolerate any signs of protest while a country's anthem is played during the medal ceremony. Tommy Smith & John Carlos found out the hard way by being kicked out of the 1968 Olympics, without warning. The Olympic committee stated they would not tolerate any national political demonstrations in the games, yet allows this country's "USA" to be plastered everywhere on their apparel?

If the NFL is so concerned about the individuals rights, why do they let the security folks at the game be armed, but those with 'concealed handgun licenses' are not allowed to bring in their firearms? Also heard today that several players wore 9/11 commemorative shoes during Sunday's games, but are going to be fined by the NFL for violation of the leagues uniform rule. What a joke!

Speaking of rights! Did you know that all track & field athletes at the Rio Olympics had to sign a contract agreeing to only wear NIKE gear and apparel or they could be removed from the team? So you like Adidas shoes and you have a contract where they pay you to wear their brand, too bad. And this "NIKE only" was not only for times at Rio when competing, but anytime you were down there.
