Had they shown up, Trump could have talked their concerns and then lauded them as being respectful all season and really held their purpose up to the American people. Instead they chose to be typical professional athletes and show their collective asses.

Let them protest their social injustice all they want..... and then watch how quickly the crowds further dwindle. When no one gives a **** and they're playing in front of their teammates they'll know they've won

Roger Goodell could have made them stand for the anthem and showed absolutely no balls in making the rule he did. If he was going to allow them to stay in the locker room, then those that stayed should not be allowed to play in the 1st quarter.

Sure, my argument is this: Trump says people who kneel are son's of b........, he also says they should leave the Country. He has never once acknowledged the real reason people in the NFL are kneeling. Instead he panders to his base and says they are disrespecting the flag, the Country, and our veterans - none of which is true.

What in the world would ever make you think that if they showed up at the WH that Trump would address their concerns? Remember this is the guy who said there are good guys in Charlottesville on both sides and continues to fear monger about immigrants.

The NFL Players are right. Trump does not deserve their respect when it comes to race relations and police brutality. Address their concerns! That's laughable, Trump can't even articulate a coherent sentence and you expect him to have a thoughtful conversation! Like I said, delusional.

After reading this, you really have no logical reason to call anyone delusional.

So, it's your opinion that anybody on the side of not wanting to see their heritage destroyed (by tearing down a harmless monument that has stood for 100 years) is automatically a bad person? You are a bigot.

You're correct he is not a military officer but just like the Secretary of the Army, Navy, Air Force refuse to render proper honors and see what happens.

"Render Honors"?

They don't render honors, they follow orders.

I agree with you. That tweet was pretty worthless imho. That being said, this thread should have ended with the posted that talked about how boycotting the WH visit does anything to further their protest. They miss a golden oportunity to speak one on one with someone that has the power to change things.

Sometimes meeting with the President helps...oh and it relates to part of what the players are protesting.


Trump commutes Alice Johnson'''s life sentence after visit from Kim Kardashian West - Axios


And yes she’s an idiot but so are most of the players. When the leader of the free world is willing to give you his ear for 30 seconds maybe you can make a point.

If her husband was a critic, there is a 100% chance she wouldn't have been granted an audience to his highness.

Claiming what, their heroism? That’s not the point. The resounding message is WHY Trump is POTUS. IDGAS if they kneel until callouses are worn onto their knees and whores blush in admiration, save the political stunts for an appropriate platform and bring them to the polls.

A faction of the country espoused the same self-entitled hubris as these overprivileged bastages. That is the deafening, cacophonous message, and these fools don’t even see it.

Don’t get your drawers wadded over a tweet/meme. Most of them aren’t lauded for unequivocal accuracy.
