As expected the hypocrisy still rings true. Some are “offended” by players kneeling, but call those “sensitive” who are outraged at McNair with his comments that have a clear racial undertone.

Whether someone has a liberal, or conservative viewpoint, a authoritative figure should not lock a thread for the sole purpose to get the last word in all the while prohibiting someone else from being able to respond.

NFL players are the labor component of that which provides our amusement. They are trivial at best and hardly qualifiied to tell billionaires how to run their businesses. Just like Hollywood actors they should shut up, play their games, and thank deity they are lucky enough to live in a time when their meager skills can draw such great rewards.

Takes more skill and work to be a football player than most jobs.  It's a highly specialised job.

---

Theres an odd sentiment that NFL players didn't have to work like hell to get where they are and that it's an easy job. 90% of the population aren't even physically able to play the game let alone have the necessary work ethic to get in the league and maintain

They are very fortunate to live in an era where their skills are highly valued. Just because something is hard doesnt make it valuable.

Is this your attitude when insulted by the CEO of your company, and would it change if you had a voice anyone cared to hear?

For 450k a year he can call me anything he wants. Of course, unlike these players, I don't feel entitled to anything more than my salary.

Prostitutes think like this.

Clear racial undertones....

To people who see racism in everything of course.

Valuable to who?   

It's just I see people say NFL players should work a real job instead of complaining about the one they have. The implication being that a regular job is harder to do than make it to the NFL and play week in week out.

Why don't you ask Deacon Jones how much he made playing in the NFL. Again, today's players are lucky that their skills are valuable and our society can pay them handsomely for what is really nothing but trivial amusement.

I value trivial amusement enormously!

The problem is, somehow, it's gotten to the point where everyone is offended by everything. If we want to calm the waters, we, the fans, can help by not getting so offended by the players. Someone has to start somewhere. Why not us? Why don't we just say, "We don't care. We just want to watch football games." And then maybe we could start unwinding this culture of offense where every little thing escalates into a major crisis that threatens to severely damage the sport we love.

On the other hand, of course, I think it'd be great if the Texans' players walked out and refused to practice.

Rumours all over that the texans are going to protest McNair at the game today. Schefter said they might remove the logo from the helmet or have a group protest.

Don't really care either way, just fun seeing the texans in disarray

That's my position, but many people don't love football enough to let it slide. Offending the casual fan will be enough to kill the sport.

I wonder if McNair has the stones to take drastic action if they do? Suspend them all, forfeit the game, and take their game checks...see how much that dignity is really worth.

Not sure what they'll do but it would be very foolish move for players on the roster bubble or with contracts about to run out to protest against an owner like that. I think they'd find themselves out of the league fairly soon.

The solution is simple. Houston just needs to change the team name to the "Inmates" and the team color to orange.

Never bite the hand that feeds you. Not unless you want to starve.

Even if every once in awhile the food is nasty. Most of their meals are delicious.

Lombardi is rolling in his grave. Players that soft would have made him vomit.

I guess the players took his words literally when they were offended but his words didn't mean [BLEEP] when he apologized?
