He’s a moron. How many others that have kneeled don’t have contracts? Kap is so FOS.

He's not even a good quarterback, at best average so what does he do - political grand stand and then he opts out of contract (although we he probably would have been cut). What happens next, his stupid gf starts using racist gestures when the Ravens try and sign him. :eek:lol: There is a reason why these guys play football - there ability to do anything besides run the ball, pass the ball, catch the ball, and kick the ball - is very limited.

Some articles on game attendance, some teams getting hit harder than others. Doesn't look like even close to 56,000 for the Jags game. I don't think this is going to get better - the trend is your friend.

Thanks for proving you are one stupid ****.

Other than the Texans game each one pictured has a legible score and clock which indicate kickoff or immediately after kickoff. The players are lined up as such. Considering all others were at kickoff I’ll believe the Texans one is as well.

You can clearly see these in the pics. The caption of the four pics stays kickoff. And they are.

There is nothing for me to tell the Truth over, as I was not there. People post pics and said it was kickoff, usually the pics come out right afterwards.

I doubt that many people can fit in the toilet at the same time - but I am speculating there. There is video of the Atlanta games and its like a high school championship game in the Dome - you can clearly see they are in the middle of the game.

Yes, halftime kickoff...when people are still in the pisser. Have you ever been to a sporting event? There is a reason they chose to take this picture at this moment. They also chose to take a picture of the part of the crowd that is facing the sun, where of course fewer seats would be sold.

When people boycott something, they get really really really desperate for any shred of "proof" that the boycott is making a difference.

Donald Trump isn’t exactly on a winning streak, but he is beating the NFL in a rout.

The very outrageousness of Trump’s initial riff, though, served his purposes. Trump’s lurid overstatement acted as a neon advertisement for his commonsensical underlying point, namely that players should stand during the national anthem. And it baited the NFL into fighting him on indefensible ground.

It was, in part, a classic bubble phenomenon. Sports journalists are, if anything, more left than political journalists. They were excited about being at the center of a national political debate and sticking it to Trump. Much of the media piled right behind them. On CNN and MSNBC it was rare to hear a commentator say a discouraging word about the protests, let alone warn that the NFL was stumbling into Trump’s political kill box.

The NFL misunderstood its own nature. It’s not just that it is a game that should be a respite from political and social contention; as a quasi-national festival, it should be identified with a certain baseline of patriotism (the national anthem, the enormous American flags on the field before games, the military flyovers, etc.). Colin Kaepernick cracked this image, and Donald Trump drove a wedge through it.

If they are football fans, it must be hard to stay away. I wrote off 5 games yesterday that ended up going down to the wire. 9 out of 13 games were great and only 3 stinkers. There is no better spectator sports product.

I really have a hard time knowing when you are joking - does your sarcasm work better in person?

You are such a liar. You bend the truth to fit your narrative and you only fool people who want to believe the ****.

You've been caught posting false quotes ITT.

You've been caught twice sharing deceptive crowd pictures ITT.

Now your strawman is that I said "everyone" is in the toilet.

You're a fraud.

Haha. You are a funny man.:eek:lol:

Yeah, its a conspiracy, me, people that take pics and the TV ratings corporations - were all into this together to shaft Jerry Jones and the rest of the slave owners.

Was your post sarcasm, I really do have a hard time figuring it out.

Its a very large conspiracy - you have no idea the power I wield.

Hm, me thinks you don't know what a "strawman" is. :eek:lol: What a surprise.

I just need to know, should I be watching the NFL because they have black racists on the sidelines or white racists up in the owner's booth? Or not watching at all?

Just trying to figure out what I am suppose to be doing here.

You're losing your mind over this? I can see your point that without a legible scoreboard (which of course could be photoshopped) one could argue 2nd half kickoff, etc.

What you cannot argue is the tv viewership. Unless you are going to claim the cable cutters are streaming. But that won't fly.

The players taking a knee and the too little, too late NFL response is killing the Golden Goose. It's a sad thing Kap didn't forsee.

If only he had circulated a request for support among the players and held a news conference off the NFL's time announcing a players symposium or etc.

Why do you think this? Because I'm calling out a liar?

What do you think I'm arguing here? I can accept that the NFL is downward trending right now. I'm just saying don't lie. Do you have a problem with my position?
